Rise of Kingdoms VIP Points and VIP Levels Guide 2026: All Perks from VIP 1 to VIP 16

In Rise of Kingdoms, the VIP level seems like a small detail seen only as a “free daily chest” in the game’s early days; however, the picture that emerges as your account grows is completely different. A tangle of multipliers that affects dozens of different items at once—from food, wood, stone, and gold production to troop speed, from research and training times to your army’s attack and defense values—is hidden in this system. Moreover, VIP does not appeal only to players who spend money; with the right planning, it is possible to climb to serious levels without buying any packages. In this article, we discuss in detail which sources you can collect VIP points from, how many points each level requires, and which perks are unlocked from VIP 1 to VIP 16.

Why Is VIP Considered the Invisible Backbone of Your Account?

Most players dismiss VIP as a “side quest,” but the items unlocked as you level up actually determine your account’s core economy. Production bonuses directly accelerate your resource flow; troop, research, and training speeds change the pace of your power growth. With the same amount of resources and the same time, a player with higher VIP always develops more. That is why VIP is the game’s “invisible but constantly working” infrastructure investment.

The second critical point is that VIP levels distribute legendary commander sculptures. These sculptures are one of the most consistent ways to develop legendary commanders that are normally very difficult to obtain. Especially on a regularly played account, the free chest collected every day creates a serious accumulation of sculptures over months. This turns VIP into an investment that “doesn’t help today but carries the account six months later.”

The third and most overlooked layer is troop bonuses. Although the attack, defense, troop HP, troop capacity, and march speed bonuses unlocked from VIP 11 onward seem like small percentages, they create a distinct advantage when combined on the battlefield. When two similar accounts face off in an alliance war, the difference is often determined not by commander matchups but by these kinds of cumulative percentages.

Five Ways to Earn VIP Points

VIP points do not come from a single place; there are five separate sources scattered across different systems in the game. Some of them are completely free and can be collected regularly every day, while others depend on alliance interaction or spending. Below, we examine each way separately, along with how many points it brings.

1. Daily Login Points

This is the easiest source. Every 24 hours, you can collect your free 200 VIP points by clicking the VIP level indicator in the upper-left corner of the screen. All you need to do is enter the game and click; without spending any resources, completely free. Repeating this habit every day amounts to tens of thousands of points per year, and this is the detail that makes the biggest difference in the long run. The indicator sitting in the upper left is actually the game’s way of telling you, “don’t forget this”; do not neglect collecting your reward on time.

2. VIP Points from the Alliance Shop

The alliance shop is another channel that provides a good amount of VIP points, but it has limitations. You need alliance credits to shop; you can buy a package that gives 100 VIP points for 50,000 credits. If you cannot see the VIP points option in your shop, you can ask your alliance leader or an officer to add VIP points to the shop list — this is entirely a settings matter.

Personal alliance credits, however, do not come on their own. Placing flags, building forts and farms, providing alliance help, making donations, opening alliance gifts, and participating in events like Ark of Osiris generate these credits. In other words, being an active alliance player is one of the most solid ways to indirectly accumulate VIP points.

3. Alliance Gifts

When someone in your alliance purchases an in-game package, the entire alliance earns chests. VIP points can come out of these chests, but the chance is low — so it is not guaranteed, it is a matter of luck. Still, where there is luck, there is accumulation; the amounts of points that can come from chests vary as 10, 50, 100, 200, and 1,000.

For players who do not spend, alliance gifts are the most efficient indirect source of VIP points. Therefore, joining an alliance with many “spender” players can allow you to collect in weeks the points you would collect on your own over months. Alliance choice is an invisible variable that determines the speed of your chest flow.

4. Getting VIP Points by Spending Gems

You get one VIP point for one gem; that is, the conversion rate is one to one. Buying VIP points with gems is the clearest method for reaching high VIP levels, especially for players who spend no money or little money. Spending accumulated gems at the right time doubles the efficiency of this method.

This is where timing comes in: the best moment to convert your gems into VIP points is the “More than Gems” event. If you are not in a hurry about your VIP level, waiting for the event and using your gems during that period lets you collect both VIP points and event rewards at the same time. Do not neglect participating in the “Peerless Scholars” event for your extra gem needs; you can get thousands of gems from there.

5. In-Game Packages

Every purchasable package contains a certain amount of VIP points. However, if you do not plan to spend a lot of money on the game, you may still need to invest some gems alongside the packages. In other words, the package route should be thought of as a supporting channel that is not sufficient on its own but accelerates the other four ways.

A Realistic Roadmap for Free-to-Play Players

VIP 12 is the natural target in most players’ minds; however, climbing there is not easy by playing completely free. To be realistic, passing VIP 12 without spending money is quite challenging. A player who wants to reach VIP 12 must consistently apply almost all of the following steps:

• Collect the 200-point daily login reward every day without missing it
• Accumulate alliance credits and regularly buy VIP points from the shop
• Join an alliance with many spender players to increase the flow of gift chests
• Convert gems into VIP points by waiting for the “More than Gems” event
• Do not skip gem-giving events like Peerless Scholars

These five items together carry a patient player to serious levels over time. The key point is this: VIP is not a one-time effort but the sum of daily habits. A player who does nothing for a month falls about 6,000 points behind a player who collects their reward every day during the same month.

VIP Levels and Point Thresholds

The table below shows the total VIP points required to reach each level. The jumps between levels grow significantly, especially after VIP 9; therefore, you need to progress quickly in the early levels and be patient in the later levels.

Conclusion: Which VIP Level Should You Target?

VIP 16 is, of course, the best point in theory; production percentages reach up to 55%, the action point limit increases by 200, and resources spent on healing decrease by 10%. However, reaching here requires millions of points, not hundreds of thousands, and for most players this is only possible with serious spending or consistency spread over years. For players who want to set a practical target, the most logical threshold is around VIP 10: here legendary commander sculptures begin to enter the daily chest, production percentages reach 29%, and valuable rewards like the Golden Key become regular.

The medium-term target stands out as VIP 12. At VIP 12, troop attack and defense bonuses come into play, free attempts in Sunset Canyon increase to 4, and Hannibal Barca sculptures begin to appear in the daily chest. Even at levels below this, production bonuses grow significantly, so it is best to treat VIP not as an “all or nothing” goal but as a gradual investment.

Finally, it is important not to forget this: accumulating VIP points is entirely a matter of habit. Collecting the daily login reward, not wasting alliance credits, staying in an alliance with a high gift chest flow, and converting gems into VIP during the right event — these four behaviors are the real variables that determine how strong your account will be a year from now. No matter what level you are now, the small steps you take today will make a serious difference in a few months.
