  1. With the new Dispatch Drones, we are presented with a list of rewards, but lack the percentage chance of receiving said items.
    I'm putting together a spreadsheet of all potential rewards, but it is highly difficult to do alone. I would love for everyone who sees this to post the rewards they received from the dispatch drones.

    What I need from you has to be in the following format, or alternatively, a screenshot of the rewards window.

    Drone variant
    • Reward 1 (Quantity)
    • Reward 2 (Quantity)
    • Reward 3 (Quantity
    • ...
    *Colouring NOT required

    Here is an sample of the requested format:

    B-01
    • Solidus (3)
    • P.E.T Fuel (43)
    • PLT-2026 (67)
    • P.E.T. Fuel (41) *YES, list duplicate rewards!
    • Prime Coupon (1)
    This makes it MUCH easier for me to eyeball and plot the entry!
    If you have quite a lot to show, please use spoilers!!

    Data is needed for the following drones. Entries in Green with a strikethrough are completed/satisfied probabilities. Extra data for them will still be appreciated.

    The more people that participate, the bigger the sample size received, and the more accurate I can get the results to be!

    Huge thanks in advance to those that contribute the pricier 5,000 and 10,000 Uridium Dispatch Drones as well--they would take a lot of Uridium and Permits to get usable results from! This information will be heavily worth it for new players/those who haven't touched the Dispatch Drones!

    Here are my results so far. It will be continuously updated with each run I complete.

    I will personally attempt to contribute 20 entries for each 01 and 02 variants of the Dispatc Drones. I will definitely need help for the higher costs, as I have neither the permits nor Uridium to sufficiently do this on my own.

    I will HIGHLY appreciate being able to get a minimum of 100 entries per drone. 100 entries is still not enough to base an accurate drop rate, but it is none-the-less a starting point. An optimal amount would be 1,000 entries (based upon the reward variations), which would push much closer to the true percentage, albeit still not optimal.

    *Darkorbit (as well as quite a few other games) LOVES the use of "nice" numbers, so values where percentages display as 100%, 25%, 12.5%, 6.25%, etc., may appear to be the true values. Once the observed percentages "appear satisfying," I will post the full drop rate table as a new comment.

    Update June 2024: I will not be updating this thread.

    Hi KilerStreak,

    I've made this a sticky for now so players can easily find it. Hopefully, you get a lot of responses to this.

    Thanks for taking the time to help your fellow players :D

    Darkorbit claims that Permits and UCB-100 are available drops, but the used sample size is too small to have them drop.

    *Note, drop rates are estimates based on the number of runs observed in the respective Drop Results table, located in the very first post.

  8. Can you verify whether Isochronate drops from the R-02 variant?

    From Ðįmáŋ1993, he claims to have received the Isochronate from the R-02. No worries if you're unsure, Ðįmáŋ1993, Darkorbit has missed an entry for the A-01 as well if so.
    According to the FAQ, Isochronate is not a drop from the R-02, only from the R-03, onwards.
    Retriever R02
    The R02-Retriever costs 2,000 Uridium and you have different chances to get some of the following rewards:
    - New resource Solidus
    - Permit
    - PrimeCoupon
    - Tetrathrin
    - Kyhalon
    - Bifenon
    - Indoctrine Oil

    Thats a grate job on data collecting. How many RO5's did it take to collect all the hydra alloy?
     
  10. From the data he has supplied me so far:
    52 runs - 399 Units of Hydra Alloy

    Perhaps I should add an extra column for total units collected, based off the sample size :p

    EDIT: Final data tables updated to include total units of each items collected over the entire sample size.
