Stamina is an anti-cheating measure designed as one of several measures to help protect the game against automation and account sharing.

Your stamina decreases while you're actively playing, and increases while your account is idle.

It doesn't matter whether your account is left logged in or idling, only active usage decreases your stamina.

IMPORTANT: Stamina has NO effect on your gameplay as long as your level is "Normal", which is the case for over 99% of players.

In the rare case that your level falls to "Low" or "Critical", some areas of the game may become more difficult or restricted as detailed below.

Please note that the changes applied when your Stamina level reduces are subject to change at any time in future.

Low stamina

When your stamina reaches the "Low" level, the following changes occur:

• Your Small Crimes timer is doubled
• Your Extortion timer is doubled
• Your Prison Busting timer is doubled
• Your Bomb Defusal timer is doubled
• Your Looting timer is doubled

Critical stamina

When your stamina reaches the "Critical" level, the following further changes occur:

• The number of Looting options reduces from 6 to 2.
• Purchases from the Bullet Store are blocked.
