Protect the Border Gamepass Tier List
Buy a hole in the run, not a full store screenshot.
Protect the Border’s store is busy for a young BETA. This page ranks passes by how they change a shift, not by how they look in a bundle ad. For rifle-by-rifle notes see the weapons tier list. For kits see the classes tier list. For a spend calculator in plain language, use gamepass value.
S tier spends
- 2X Cash (199) — double cash and gold every match. The cleanest multiplier.
- Juggernaut (349) — only door into 250 HP. If your party lacks a frontliner, this is the night pass.
A tier spends
- VIP (399) — same double cash and gold as 2X, plus a tag. Buy this or 2X, not both, unless you like labels.
- Infinite Ammo (199) — keeps a lane up during later Endless nights. Does not earn money by itself.
- Ghillie Sniper (350) — if nobody can overwatch
- SAS Operator (350) — if you want one kit that can booth and road
B tier spends
- Special Forces + Spetsnaz bundle (499) — two classes; good for a duo that shares an account plan, expensive for a solo
- Hazmat / Frog Man / Pyromaniac (350 each) — real kits, buy for taste and role, not because the list said S
- PKM (219) / M249 (179) / 50 CAL (249) — extras that matter once a class exists
C tier spends
- 99–149 rifles you will actually fire (FAMAS, TAR 21, SPAS 12, SVD, AS VAL, HK416, G36, RPK)
- Minigun (199) if you already have Infinite Ammo
- RPG (299) as a boss button
D tier spends
- Ray Gun (399) before you own a class and a multiplier
- X-Ray Scanner — offsale; do not hunt gray-market copies
- Any pass sold in a YouTube comment
- A second economy pass when you have not finished how to earn cash
Stacking rules
VIP and 2X Cash both say double cash and gold. Do not assume they stack to 4x unless the live BETA proves it on your HUD. Test with a short shift and a screenshot. Until you see four times the number, treat them as alternate products.
Weapon extras stack on classes. That is the point of “carried on top of your normal loadout.” Buying SVD on Ghillie is usually a waste. Buying PKM on SAS is a plan.
A sane first Robux trip
- Play one full day and night with no passes.
- Note the wipe reason.
- If the wipe was economy, consider 2X Cash.
- If the wipe was a missing body, consider Juggernaut.
- If the wipe was a missing angle, consider Ghillie or SVD.
- If the wipe was empty mags, consider Infinite Ammo or better reload discipline.
That order keeps the Codes Hub out of the conversation. Robux is optional. Fake codes are not an alternative budget.
Write the sentence before you click: “I am buying X because wipe reason Y.” If you cannot finish the sentence, you are browsing. Browsing is how Ray Gun ends up in a locker that still fails faces. The inspection checklist is cheaper than any pass and still legal.
When you can defend one purchase in one sentence, close the store. The next page is loadouts so the pass you bought has a job during daylight as well as after dark.
Frequently Asked Questions
Quick answers officers ask after every shift.
Do VIP and 2X Cash stack?
Both advertise double cash and gold. Do not assume 4x until your HUD proves it. Prefer one multiplier first.
Is X-Ray still for sale?
No. The pass is offsale. Do not buy it from a reseller.
What is the first pass for a solo player?
2X Cash if you want faster lockers, or a class that matches how you already play.
Are weapon passes permanent?
Yes. The store text says they stay in every match.
