Prison Augments, Hotstreaks and Mana Guide (2026)

Short answer: On Complex Prison (hub.mc-complex.com), an augment is a bonus you put on your pickaxe, like +10% sell price or +50% backpack space. You get one Augment Pack every time you prestige, and you charge the augment by winning quick minigames while you mine. A hotstreak is a rare, powered-up version of an enchant that keeps going until your Mana runs out. You can pick up to 3 hotstreaks in /upgrade.

What are augments?​

An augment is a bonus that sits on your pickaxe. Each pickaxe holds one augment. Open /augments (or the Pickaxe Augments button in /upgrade) to manage it.

• How to get one: you get 1 Augment Pack every time you prestige. Right-click the pack to open it.
• What's inside: a random augment type and a random level from 1 to 10. Unapplied augments and packs are items, so you can trade them.
• Seasons: augments don't carry over to the next season.

Augment Pack level odds:
Every augment type has the same 1 in 8 chance.

All 8 augments​

The bonus shown is at level 10 and full charge.

Charging your augment​

An augment only gives its bonus while it's charged. You charge it by winning short minigames while you mine:

• After about 20 seconds of mining, a minigame pops up. You have 8 seconds to react.
• Your score sets the charge from 0% to 100%, and the charge sets your bonus. A bossbar shows your current bonus.
• Each augment has its own minigame, like stopping a marker in the center (Sell Boost), repeating a color pattern (Scholar), clicking jams fast (Deep Pockets) or a minesweeper grid (Luck).
• The charge drains over real time: about 4 minutes at the lowest ranks, up to about 24 minutes at the highest rank and prestige.
• A new minigame appears once the charge runs out. If you miss one, the wait before the next doubles, up to 4 times.
• Token Tithe works differently: it saves 35% of each Lucky Mining token proc into a pool. Hold Shift to cash out once the pool has at least 25 tokens. The bigger the pool, the higher the payout (up to 3x), but the higher the chance it gets seized.

Upgrading, merging and swapping augments​

• Upgrade: in /augments, with tokens. Level 1 to 2 costs 15,500 tokens, and each level costs about 55% more than the last. Going from 1 to 10 costs 1,427,124 tokens in total.
• Merge: combine a spare augment of the same type to add its levels (up to 10). You pay the upgrade cost for the levels you gain.
• Swap: you have to unbind your augment before applying a different type. Shift-click to unbind it and keep its level (you pay a fee), or left-click to unbind it for free but lose 1 level.

What are hotstreaks?​

A hotstreak is a powered-up version of an enchant. While it's active, it keeps going until your Mana runs out.

• Pick your hotstreaks: in /upgrade, open an enchant and turn on its Hotstreak toggle (the flint and steel). You can pick up to 3.
• Starting one: most hotstreaks have a 1 in 20,000 chance per block. Momentum's is 1 in 1,000.
• Cost: each active hotstreak drains 0.5 Mana every 5 seconds (6 Mana per minute). When your Mana runs out, your hotstreaks end.

What each hotstreak does:

• Lucky Mining: 3x Lucky Block chance
• Cellmate: up to 3 cellmates at once
• Excavator: +50% TNT chance
• Greed: 3x Greed bonuses
• Wise: 3x XP
• Scavenged Shards: 2x Gold Shard chance
• Momentum: a 50% chance for each block to count double
• Jackhammer: breaks a full layer of the mine
• Torrent: a 50% bigger Tornado
• Swindled Shards: 3x Gold Shard chance on Skull Island
• Seafarers Bounty: splash damage to nearby Skull Island mobs

Auto Sell, Glitch and Grappling don't have hotstreaks. See the Prison Pickaxe Enchants Guide for what each enchant does.

How Mana works​

Mana powers your hotstreaks. Your current Mana shows on your scoreboard as Mana: X/Y.

• Starting Mana: 100 max.
• Mana cap: every prestige raises how high your max Mana can go by 25.
• Regen: 60 Mana per hour while you're online and 20 per hour while you're offline.
• Other uses: skipping the /sell all cooldown in a mine costs 0.25 Mana.

More Mana comes from:

• Mana Refill vouchers: instantly add Mana. They come from block milestones, crates, Dungeons and Skull Island mobs.
• Maximum Mana vouchers: permanently raise your max Mana by 5, up to your cap. They come from the 1M and 100M block milestones and the Dungeons shop.
• Mana Efficiency augment: less drain during hotstreaks and faster regen outside them.
