# Honey Pots Upgrade

#### **Honey Pot Upgrade**

To attempt a Honey Pot upgrade, the user must gather:

👉 **3 strictly identical Honey Pots**

* Same level
* Same color

#### Success & Failure

{% hint style="warning" %}
Upgrades are **not guaranteed**.
{% endhint %}

Two possible outcomes:

✅ **Success:**\
The 3 pots merge to create a **higher-level Honey Pot**, which is rarer and more powerful.

❌ **Failure:**\
The resources are consumed: you **lose the 3 Honey Pots and the associated tokens**.

#### Upgrade Costs

Each upgrade attempt has a cost, which varies depending on the target level:

🔸 **CATKN** (always required)\
🔸 **CATKN + HELT** starting from the **third tier**

Regardless of the Honey Pot’s color, **the upgrade cost is the same**.
