# Bank Raids

### **Starting a Bank Raid**

To start a bank raid, simply hit the **vault entity** in the **bank vault** with a hammer or a weapon. If there are less than 10 players online, no CP officers online or you are playing as a job that can't raid bank, you will get an error in chat stating that you cant start a bank raid.

### **Defending a Bank Raid**

While defending the bank against Civil Protection, the same rules apply as defending a base. This means you **cannot use explosives** or any of the **banned weapons** under **rule 3.8.**

You may kill any players that enter the bank during your raid.

### **Selling your Gold Bars**

Just outside the bank to your left (behind PD) is the **Gold Buyer.** Simply press **use** (E by default) while looking at the Gold Buyer to instantly sell your gold bars.
