Anti-Raid & Anti-Nuke
Use premium controls to detect join waves and single-actor mass destruction, then protect the server.
How it works
Anti-Raid watches join velocity and account signals for a wave of joins. Anti-Nuke, configured on the same dashboard page, instead watches for one actor already inside the server performing rapid, destructive actions — mass channel or role deletion, permission changes, mass bans, or webhook abuse. Both apply the same configured response when a threshold is crossed.
Before you start
- Confirm the server has active premium access.
- Review normal join volume and admin activity before setting thresholds.
- Ensure Airwavy has the permissions required by the selected response and sits above affected member roles.
Configure it
- Open Anti-Raid in the dashboard.
- Set join thresholds, the observation window, account checks, and the response action for Anti-Raid.
- Scroll to the mass-destructive-action section to enable and threshold the Anti-Nuke categories you want covered.
- Choose notification or log destinations, save, and monitor the first alerts closely.
Signals and response
- Set a join threshold from 2 through 100 members within a 1- through 300-second observation window.
- Optional signals include young accounts, default avatars, bot accounts, and clusters of similar usernames.
- Choose quarantine, kick, ban, or alert-only handling, and exclude trusted roles or members where the dashboard allows it.
- Optional Discord lockdown can temporarily restrict joins for 5 minutes through 24 hours.
- Anti-Nuke reuses this same response setting for a triggered destructive-action category — there is no separate response choice per category.
Anti-Nuke: protected categories
- Mass channel deletion, mass role deletion, mass role permission changes, mass bans, and webhook abuse are each independently toggleable with their own threshold.
- Only exempted roles or accounts bypass detection — every other actor, including admins and bot integrations, is covered.
Anti-Nuke: exemptions require owner access
Adding exemption roles or disabling Anti-Nuke protection is restricted to the server owner, since either change can widen the surface a compromised account could exploit.
Staff incident workflow
- Send alerts to a private destination and choose the staff roles permitted to act on them.
- Guarded alert actions let authorized staff resolve the incident, prune the detected members, or keep protection active.
- Rollback support restores the relevant protection state after staff resolve an incident.
- Review every automated action against Discord's Audit Log and your own incident policy.
Expected result
- Normal joins and normal admin or integration activity continue without intervention.
- A matching join wave, or a matching burst of destructive actions, triggers the configured protection and a staff-visible alert where configured.
Common errors
Normal members are being caught
Raise the join threshold, shorten or adjust the observation window, and review account-age rules. Start conservatively for servers with bursty invite campaigns.
Saved changes do not take effect
Reload the feature page and confirm the saved values. Then verify that the selected Discord channel or role still exists and that Airwavy can access it.
Discord reports missing permissions
Check the permission on both the server role and the target channel. Channel overwrites and role hierarchy can deny an action even when the server-level permission is present.
