Surface Parties are the most common, and prominent party players can identify. Unlike most parties, they don’t require vents to happen and instead are the developers of surface vents.

Surface Parties are always comprised of RUNNERS. At a base, they will always have two runners and for every additional hive claim, an additional 0.15 runners are added to the party.

At max, a Surface Party can only ever have 5 members in total. This can be changed in the config.

Unlike most parties, Surface Parties will always appear at night, and leave and dusk. These parties actively travel around creating new Surface Vents to allow further expansion and a wider array of host collection and defense.

NOTE! - Surface Parties are very common, and relatively cheap for a hive too. However, as they only occur during the night players may mistake parties in the day for them instead!
