1 · Unlock fees for your role
2 · Price a spawn against the zone
Kit is bought from your bank every life and lost on death. Tick what you spawn with (add anything else as a custom price) and see how long that life must survive in the zone to pay for itself.
Season 1 values from BULKHEAD's changelog and community trackers (checked 4 October 2026). Unlock fees are one-off; kit and vehicle prices are per spawn/purchase. Vendor prices are halved while your Wardog level is below 9 (New Recruit) — the planner applies that to unlocks and kit alike.

— FAQ
Common questions
How much do WARDOGS unlocks cost?
Big one-off fees include the L2A6 heavy tank and the HAVOC attack helicopter at $500,000 each (Driver 35 / Pilot 35), the SPH-2 artillery at $500,000 (Wardog 90), the MK22 at $150,000 (Recon 25), the MAAWS at $125,000 (Support 20) and the M4 at $100,000 (Assault 20). Smaller ones run $10,000–$75,000. Prices are Season 1 values.
What is the New Recruit discount in WARDOGS?
While your Wardog level is below 9, vendor prices are halved. The planner applies it automatically when you enter a Wardog level of 8 or lower — it is the cheapest time to buy the unlocks for your main role.
How do I know if a loadout is profitable?
Price every spawn against the zone tick: a Control Zone tick is about $160 every 22 seconds ($320 in a Hot Zone) and a kill inside the zone is $1,500 (×5) or $3,000 in a Hot Zone (×10). If a kit cannot survive long enough to earn its price back in ticks and zone kills, it is a hobby, not a farm.
Do unlock fees carry into Season 2?
BULKHEAD has confirmed that levels and cash reset on 15 October 2026 and that cash converts to gold bars; whether paid unlock fees are refunded or re-gated has not been confirmed. Spend on this season's use, not on a bank you plan to keep.
