Tomb

The Tomb is a heist in Jailbreak, released alongside Season 4: Epic Adventures. It is located in the desert near the Dune Buggy's old spawn location, near where the Camper now spawns. The Tomb can be spotted from afar by the distinct four tall statues, two standing on each side of the entrance. The Tomb is widely recognized as being among the hardest robberies in game, although being the only robbery in the game that police officers cannot stop.

In the Fall 2023 Update, the Tomb now opens alongside the Cargo Train and the Cargo Ship with the new robbery system.

Robbing the Tomb

Wait for the guardian eyes to light up. Once they are lit, stand on one of the three pads with two other players (one on each pad) to open the main door; this reveals wooden planks. The wood planks will immediately collapse once stood on, and all players will drop down to an underground area; players that land at the bottom of the chamber will be ragdolled but no fall damage will be dealt.

The player will then have to complete multiple obstacles.

Obstacles

Spikes

Wait for the doors to open. You will be greeted by a floor with spikes regularly popping out randomly from tiles. Before the spikes pop out, the tiles will glow, signaling that the spikes will be activated beneath them and warning players to stay clear. The spikes decrease your health by 25 HP if stepped on, and the spikes take roughly 1 second to pop out after the tiles glow. Step on the tiles not glowing to advance to the next obstacle.

Arrows and Platforms

Upon entering, you will be greeted by a short obstacle. Similarly, like the spike section, platforms will light up regularly, warning players of an approaching trap. Arrows will shoot about one second after the tiles light up. Getting hit by an arrow will result in your health decreasing by half. Falling down the platform will cause you to teleport to the beginning of the obstacle while losing 10-20HP of health. Avoiding the arrows by going slowly is key; this also saves you from falling off of the platform which will send you back to the beginning and deal more damage. The arrows shoot in an alternating pattern which could make it easier for timing. Reach the end to advance to the next area. If experienced enough, players can spam jump and speed through this obstacle, though there will be a higher chance of falling off the platforms.

Bridge

A small bridge is suspended between two rock platforms. What is under the bridge is lava which kill you instantly if you fall inside. Unlike the previous section, move swiftly, as parts of the bridge will collapse once stepped on. Reach the end to advance to the next area. You will not be teleported back if you fall unlike the last stage, as the lava will instantly kill you. The parts of the bridge will regenerate after a few seconds.

Robbing/Delivery

After completing all of the obstacles, there will be a room with blue gems. If a gem has been picked up, the roof will begin to shake, slowly descending onto the player as the golden sarcophagus in the middle of the room will sink into the ground. Shortly after, a door will slide open, revealing the Collector and a minecart. Hop into the minecart and press E (or if you are on mobile, just press the button) to duck underneath wood beams along the way. The robbery contains two exits, one in a mineshaft near the Rising City Gun Shop, and the other beside the Volcano Criminal Base and the Mountainside Town. A switch controls where you go, the left track goes with the former and the right track goes with the latter. By default the track goes to the right track, and the tracks change automatically every 60 seconds. Beware that there will be wood where you have to duck (Not crouching), hitting in one will cause you to lose some health. You can also press E (or if you are on mobile, you can press the button) to switch between tracks.

Tips/Tricks

• You can jump over the spikes when they appear to complete the obby faster.
• The tomb's spike door will close and can't be opened after a certain time of inactivity, so it's not advised to wait there to prevent getting stuck.
• Always observe the spike's pattern if you have no confidence that you can react fast.
• Park your vehicle outside the robbery entrance. Vehicles parked directly in the entrance will automatically eject you from the vehicle and disable entering and driving.
• It is recommended to be patient at the arrow obby. Follow the pattern of the platforms lighting up by jumping by one platform only when the platform beneath the player's feet light up. This will take a bit of patience but is a safe method to complete the obby. However, you can speed this up by jumping three/two platforms each instead of one.
• It is recommended to bring a Forcefield Launcher or Donut to restore the player's health in between obstacles, as players have a high chance of losing health.
• Do not activate the Jetpack in the final stages of the robbery, or the gem will disappear.
• During the Bridge part, be wary of trollers who walk over the end of the bridge then walk back when they are at the other side, thereby making you fall into the lava and die. To avoid this, either bring a Jetpack or jump and roll right before the gap.
• Players are recommended to hold E (press the button if on mobile) key while passing through the escape mineshaft-tunnels instead of only pressing E (press the button if on mobile) when seeing the E (press the button if on mobile) prompt appear, to make sure they successfully duck the wooden enforcement and prevent taking health damage.
• Have an alternative account or your friend inside the Tomb in case you die robbing it. This will delay the robbery from closing. This method works for all other stationary robberies, other than the Crown Jewel and Oil Rig.
• Do not get out of the minecart while riding, it will get you stuck in the tunnel.
• If you prefer to do obbies in 3rd person with shift lock, it is recommended to bring anything that will lock the camera such as a gun or Forcefield Launcher, as Jailbreak disables shift lock.

Trivia

• A reference to Indiana Jones can be spotted while exiting on the left track after passing the guardian's face, where he can be spotted running from a boulder.
• In the Tomb Raid Update, the Military Base was moved up to the road leading to the Rising City to make way for the robbery and to prevent police from spawning next to the robbery.
  • It was later moved to Crater City.
• The switch in the minecart track switches itself every 60 seconds, as stated by asimo3089.
• This is the third heist in the game which requires more than 1 player to rob, after the Bank Truck and Museum.
• When players first successfully rob the Tomb, they will obtain the Eternal Flame spoiler as a reward. This was a community creation, made by GT86Dev, also often known as WindyEvolution.
  • This is the first robbery to reward a cosmetic in Jailbreak.
  • The Eternal Flame spoiler is also displayed on both sides of the entrance to the gems room.
• If you walk into the tomb's minecart track without a Jewel, you would be teleported to the Tomb's main entrance.
• Police will be teleported to the heist's main entrance when attempting to enter either through the entrance or the 2 mineshafts, similarly to the Museum.
  • This no longer occurs with the Tomb mineshafts after it received a new look.
• The Tomb is the first stationary robbery within Jailbreak that has been added since the introduction of the Power Plant two years earlier.
• When equipping a gun or even punching while on a minecart, your animation will be broken when you get off it.
  • A similar glitch happens when you get out of the Cruiser.
  • This has been fixed in an unknown update.
• On the original trailer revealing the announcement of the next robbery before the update, a photo of the Tomb's room with the golden sarcophagus was revealed for a split second.
• After 2023 Fall Update, Tomb has been classified to Robbery Group D, opening along the Cargo Train and Cargo Ship.
