Raiding or simply a raid is a faction vs. faction (FvF) event whereby an initiator (i.e., the attackers) attempt to breach into defending faction's base. Raiding is an offensive method to climb up the /f top leaderboard. Damage dealt is largely determined by the valuation of spawners ceased and destroyed. Raids are largely (if not exclusively) conducted using TNT cannons.
Raiding mechanics differ from server-to-server and what works on other faction servers may not necessarily function 1:1 on CosmicPE. CosmicPE hosts a free Cannon Planet creative-mode server with TNT and redstone enabled, whereby players can build full-fledged cannons before rebuilding the same on the main factions planet.
Redstone mechanics on CosmicPE is coded from scratch, meaning it is neither at par with Minecraft: Bedrock Edition nor Minecraft: Java Edition. However, Java 1.8.8 was used as a reference to test logic of the mechanics.

TNT
TNTs can be lobbed over Y255, however they will not explode nor deal durability damage if the explosion occurs at any point above Y255. There is a TNT limit of 500 on the server, including any custom TNT spawwned by custom enchantments and world events (e.g., bosses). Besides the normal (vanilla) TNT, there are 8 other types of custom TNTs on the server.
- Gigantic TNT: Explodes in a much larger radius. Spawns 2 extra explosions at y+3 and y-3 of TNT, and another 3 explosions at either x+3, z+3 or x-3 and z-3.
- Lethal TNT: A more dense explosion. Creates 4x extra TNT explosions at the same location of the original. This effectively destroys 4/4 obsidian in one explosion.
- Lucky TNT: Increases chances of a spawner dropping from the explosion by 2x.
- Tactical TNT: Explosion only affects spawners. No other blocks are affected.
- Mimic TNT: Repeats an explosion many times. Spawners a TNT explosion at the same location every 5 seconds for the total of 15 seconds (i.e., 3 explosions).
- Hex TNT: Weakens block durability of any durability blocks it damages. Durability blocks take 2x damage for 30 seconds since this explosion.
- Silent TNT: Quiet, makes much less noise. Explosion can only be heard by players with 16x16 blocks (horizontally).
- Anti-Gravity TNT: Explosion only affects blocks with gravity (e.g., sand), and do not cause any physical events.
