Drop Rates
What every enemy, area, box, and reward drops in a raid, at what odds, and how a weapon gets its rarity, level, and Weapon Powers. All from our research into the game.
How Drops Work
1. Every source rolls each thing on its list on its own, at the odds for the dungeon level. One roll can give a Weapon and Gadget Parts at once.
2. A Weapon that drops gets a rarity from the dungeon level.
3. Its level is the dungeon level plus a bonus that depends on the rarity.
4. It picks its weapon type by weight from the type table.
5. Each Weapon Power slot then rolls its level by rarity.
