Rare drops and finds
Odds are before rare-find bonuses (Expertise, Scripts, Coupons, PFPs and banners), which multiply them. Moon Dust drops at a steady rate per hour of action time, so slow actions find as much as fast ones.
| Drop | Chance | On |
|---|---|---|
| ✨ Moon Dust | 0.3 per hour of action time | Every action |
Mining finds: 1% chance per action to roll a find (every action).
| Find | Rarity | Amount | Per action |
|---|---|---|---|
| 📝 Research Notes | Common | 1–3 | 1 in 167 |
| 📦 Small Block Reward | Uncommon | 1 | 1 in 400 |
| 🎁 Full Block Reward | Rare | 1 | 1 in 833 |
| 🐋 Whale Block Reward | Epic | 1 | 1 in 3,846 |
