Opening chests and banking resource items in Viking Rise
If your bag fills up with chests faster than you open them, this is the action for it. You pick which kinds of item it should handle, and it clears every one of that kind you are holding, whatever the rarity.
This guide assumes you've completed Viking Rise bot setup.
Nothing is ticked when you switch it on. Opening a chest cannot be undone, so the action does nothing until you say what you want opened.
What it does
On each pass it looks at your bag, finds everything in the groups you ticked, and opens or uses the lot.
It never touches the screen to do it. There is no bag to open, no tab to scroll and no reward window to close, so it works from your city, from the world map, or while something else is on screen. A full stack goes in one go — 565 Staging Post chests opened in under two seconds on the account this was built against.
The groups
| Group | What's in it |
|---|---|
| Resource packs | Packs that open into resource items |
| Resource items | Food/lumber/stone/gold items — used, so the resources go into your warehouse |
| Gem items | Gem items — used, so the gems go into your balance |
| Equipment material chests | Monster material and mythical material chests |
| Staging Post chests | Fortune and Deluxe chests from the Staging Post |
| Beast Lair chests | Guardian Beast and Beast Lair chests |
| Manor chests | Manor chests of every level |
| Monster kill chests | Chests from killing monsters |
| Arena chests | Arena reward chests |
| Shipyard chests | Dragonbone Shipyard chests |
| Mount and mount-part chests | Mount chests and element part chests |
| King's Gifts | The Uncommon/Rare/Epic/Legendary gift chests |
| KvK chests | Kingdom-vs-Kingdom worship and preparation chests |
| Event activity chests | Blessing chests and other recurring event rewards |
| Seasonal chests | One-off chests from past and present seasons |
Opening and using are not the same thing
The game draws a line between the two, and so does this action.
- Opening a chest gives you whatever is inside. Nothing leaves your account.
- Using a resource item puts those resources in your warehouse, where they count towards your totals — and where they can be taken if you are attacked.
That is why resource items are their own group. Plenty of players deliberately keep resources as items in the bag precisely so they cannot be raided. Leave that group unticked and nothing is ever banked for you.
It also means the two resource groups chain: opening a resource pack gives you a resource item, not banked resources. If you want a pack to end up as warehouse resources, tick both groups.
Chests it will never open
Some chests make you choose your reward — Selection Resource Chests, Monster Boxes, skin and hero-shard choice chests. Those are left alone. The choice is yours, and there is no sensible way for a bot to guess which reward you wanted.
You do not have to do anything to avoid them. They are not in any group, and the game itself refuses to open one this way, so no combination of settings opens a choice chest by accident. A handful of other items are skipped for the same reason — anything that cannot be shown to open cleanly on its own.
Troubleshooting
I ticked a group and have none of those items. The pass does nothing and says so. No error, no retry.
I ticked nothing. The pass does nothing and tells you to pick a group.
A chest I want isn't in any group. Tell us. New chests arrive with game updates and the item list has to be refreshed before the bot can see them; until then it simply is not opened.
The game refused an item. That one is skipped and the rest of the pass carries on. The activity log says how many kinds were refused, and nothing is consumed by a refusal.
I have thousands of one chest. They all open in a single request. Stacks are not a problem.
I have a huge bag and lots of groups ticked. The pass stops after five minutes and picks up where it left off next time. The log tells you when that happened.
