The main runs to farm equipment are campaigns and castles and this is what is analysed here. The rarity of drops vary by run as follows:
| Run | Rarity |
|---|---|
| World 1-4 | Only Common |
| World 5 and above | Common, Uncommon and Rare |
| Castles | Common, Uncommon, Rare and Epic |
Drop rates in campaigns and castles are better at higher difficulties, although the difference is quite marginal in castles. The estimated equivalent* drops are as follows
| Campaign | Estimated Equivalent (*) Drops per run |
|---|---|
| World 1 | 0.14 |
| World 2 | 0.27 |
| World 3 | 0.32 |
| World 4 | 0.41 |
| World 5 | 0.66 |
| World 6 | 0.74 |
| World 7 | 0.74 |
| World 8 | 0.65 (yes, it reduces) |
| World 9 | 0.89 |
| World 10 | 0.97 |
| World 11 | 1.05 |
| World 12 | 1.13 |
| World 13 | 1.20 |
| World 14 | 1.28 |
| Castle Floors | Estimated Equivalent (*) Drops per floor |
|---|---|
| Floor 1-10 | 1.3 |
| Floor 11-20 | 1.5 |
| Floor 21-30 | 1.6 |
| Floor 31-40 | 1.7 |
* An Uncommon drop is considered equivalent to 3 Commons, Rare to 9, Epic to 27
How to get more drops:
- The Battle Pass increase drop rates by 10% (and 20% for the Super BP)
- A hero with the Equipment Drop Chance in the skill tree increases drops by 50%
- Playing with Jackbot can get you drops from Jackpot procs (limited to 15/run, and only some of them will be equipment). This can happen almost anywhere - even in events where equipment normally does not drop (e.g. Daily elemental events, Endless waves, Gambit, Jetpack Heart Hunt). However Jackbot does not proc in Guild events.
- Gun dungeons are a good source (details) of the featured weapon but the drops and runs are limited.
