Super Bomb Survival How to Get Badges
Badge Skills, 100-Gem payouts, and the Halcyon / Glitch Bomb hunt.
Super Bomb Survival treats badges as both a flex and a Gem faucet. The wiki lists about 77 available badges. Since v3.20, many of them pay Gems (old badges were not back-paid). A few also unlock Skills you cannot buy: Duck Bomb, Banana, and Glitch Bomb. This page is the “how to get badges,” “how to get Halcyon,” and “how to get Glitch Bomb” guide — not a dump of all 77 tooltips.
If you only want currency, read farm Credits and Gems first. Badges are lumpy income, not a copper line.
The 100-Gem club
These are the badges worth planning a week around:
- Super Explorer — win at least one round on every current map. The vote UI marks completed maps with a check and a green name. 3 Gems force a missing map. VIP owners pick maps free. The maps catalog is the checklist.
- Super Collector — own every non-exclusive Skill and Perk. Gift Wrap and Bloxgiving Skills do not count. Budget roughly 265,100 Credits or 2,353 Gems for Perks alone, plus Skill rolls and packs (Winter 195, Nature’s Fury 95, Magic Dice 60).
- Level Headed — every non-exclusive Skill at level 3. Equip, win, repeat. VIP’s +50% Skill EXP is the paid shortcut.
- 6.0 Hero — 100 wins on Super Intense. Prerequisite mentally: Fearless (first 6.0 win). Use the 6.0 survival guide.
- Hardcore Hierophant — 100 Hardcore wins. Hardcore is 35 HP and no Perks after 50 total wins.
- Nuclear Rank — 1,000 lifetime wins.
Crystal Rank (250 wins) and Nitro Rank (100 wins) pay 50 Gems. Intense (win at 4.0+), Intensity Intensifies (10 wins at 5.0), and No Harm Done (5.0 without taking damage) sit in the 10-Gem band.
Skill-unlock badges
This is the reason people search “how to get Glitch Bomb.”
- Duck Slap — smack a duck with the Smack Skill during the explosive-ducks event (Big Duck at the end). Pays 1 Gem and Duck Bomb.
- Orange You Glad — Banana Skill plus 5 Gems. Conor3D has a dedicated video if the in-game hint is still opaque.
- Halcyon — unlocks Glitch Bomb. Secret-ish, easy to waste hours on. The video in the middle of this page is Conor3D’s Halcyon route (258K views). Watch it once, then execute; do not invent a third ritual. Foxytheicefox has an alternate if the map pool changed after v4.0 — we prefer Conor3D’s ID because it is the confirmed high-view tutorial.
Other Conor3D hunts exist for Super Liminal, Fresh Air, Nostalgic View, and It Tolls, Nonetheless. This wiki keeps one video per page, so those stay as text:
- It Tolls, Nonetheless — get hit by a Grimbell while Forcefield is up (5 Gems). You will die. That is the point.
- Defuser — 100 Skill Points with Disarm (10 Gems).
- Grim Consequences — Disarm a Grimbell (10 Gems) even though Disarm enlarges it. Do this on a public 3.0, not 6.0.
- Streakin’ / Consistent — 3 and 10 wins in a row.
- Stressed Out — survive 30 seconds at 5 HP.
- Springloaded — hit jump stat 5 during a round (Belly Drum in v4.01 can help, at the cost of half your HP).
Event and v4 badges
v4.0 shipped 20 new badges; v4.02 added 3 more. Names for every new badge were not all on the Fandom list at time of writing, so we will not guess titles. Play the new events (Grimseeker, Bass drop, raining shinies, rift, stat boosts, Beam Sniper, strange taco cloud) and read toasts after the round. “It’s Raining Tacos” is the one named publicly. Riftbreaker and Ten 10 belong to 10.0.
Egg Hunt leftovers (Super Bomb Egg, Eggmageddon, Egg of Golden Riches, Scramblin’ Egg of Teleporting) are historical. If they return in an event, the updates hub will say so.
A sane badge order
- It’s A Blast! (join) and Survivor (win once).
- Farm a Movement/Defense Skill so Survivor is not a coin flip — getting started.
- Duck Slap the next time ducks rain. Smack is a Defense shop roll.
- Super Explorer as a background task while you play normally. Do not dump 200 Gems rerolling maps in one night.
- Halcyon when you can afford to throw rounds.
- Super Collector / Level Headed after the shop is no longer scary.
- 6.0 Hero last, because it demands the loadout planner kit, not a badge-hunting kit.
Scripts will not grant badges. The scripts hub is unrelated. Codes will not grant badges. Community tracking lives on the links hub and the Fandom badge table if you need a name we have not listed yet.
Frequently Asked Questions
Quick answers to the most common Super Bomb Survival questions.
How do I get the Glitch Bomb Skill?
Earn the Halcyon badge. Follow the Conor3D video on this page rather than random comments. It is not in the Credit shop.
Does Super Explorer update when v4.01 adds maps?
Yes. Sacred Sanctum and Charge Station count. Win them once. See the maps catalog.
Do Gift Wrap and Bloxgiving block Super Collector?
No. Exclusive Skills are excluded. Buy the non-exclusive shop and pack list on the skills catalog.
Is 6.0 Hero possible without VIP?
Yes. Super Intense public servers exist. VIP only makes map and Intensity locking easier. Read survive 6.0.
