Drop Rate
The drop rate of an item is the probability of obtaining the item after completing the acquisition method for the item once.
- Examples include opening an armoury crate, defeating a monster, or completing a quest.
The drop rates on BG Wiki are based on observation and/or data collection (File:FFXIDB Icon v3.png) and are intended to provide general probability ranges for individual drops.
The terminology used for drop rates on BG Wiki is as follows:
- G - Guaranteed (100% drop rate, 1/1)
- VC - Very common (24%)
- C - Common (15%)
- U - Uncommon (10%)
- R - Rare (5%)
- VR - Very Rare (1%)
- SR - Super Rare (0.5%)
- UR - Ultra Rare (0.1%)
Drop rates can be added to items by using the appropriate template:
- {{gdrop}}, {{vcdrop}}, {{cdrop}}, {{udrop}}, {{rdrop}}, {{vrdrop}}, {{srdrop}}, or {{urdrop}}., corresponding to the eight categories above.
Note that drop rates are provided for guidance only, and, as with any random occurrence, your actual experience across a small number of instances may vary significantly from the estimated drop rate.
Please refrain from editing drop rate information unless your modification is based on a significant pool of data or sufficient information from [[1]] if a mob has been recorded thousands of times.
- Otherwise, discuss potential updates to drop rate results by using "discussion" (talk) pages.
