The Silver Dueling Badge is a miscellaneous item. It is a rectangular, silver badge with rounded edges and a black Dueling Mini-Game insignia. The badge is displayed on the chest.

The medal is awarded after a player has reached level 25 with the Bronze Dueling Badge, and its level increases by 1 for every 10 duels won by the player. After 490 duel wins and the badge reaches level 50, it is upgraded to the Gold Dueling Badge.

The badge also displays win percentage based on all duels played, and the time, date, outcome, and opponent in the last duel. After the Hatless Update, the badge does not show losses.

If the badge is deleted, a new one will be awarded upon completing another duel. This new badge will have the same stats as the old one, but will bear a new "date received".

Update history

Trivia

  • Not including random drops and being challenged by other players rather than challenging, but including the set of 5 rewarded Dueling Mini-Games for every 10 wins, the lowest possible amount of money a player can spend on the Dueling Mini-Game in order to get this badge would be $47,52 (47,52€, £28,32), which buys 240 duels; 48 set of 5. This is assuming each duel is won.
  • Unlike the Bronze Dueling Badge, when enough duels are won to be awarded the Silver Dueling Badge, there is no "#PlayerName has earned Silver Dueling Badge" message broadcast to the server. This also happens for the Gold and Platinum Dueling Badges.
