Welcome! ♥

          EDIT - June 13th, 2018
          Hi, I'm mel, and I no longer have too much time on my hands. I apologize for abandoning the spreadsheets; I notice there are still people who are listing their data; Thank you. I just don't have the time or will to edit the spreadsheet as much as I have in the past. I may come back to work on this and input the data you guys have given me, but for now that's in the unforeseeable future. I'm sorry for those that took the time to post their data. Maybe there's been an update between when I restarted, maybe all the data will be moot with the next update. I can't keep up at this point in my life. I wish you all happy tree hunting.

          Hi I'm mel, and I have too much time on my hands! I really like spreadsheets!
          So I've made a spreadsheet with the drop rates in various different areas.
          Ever wondered if one area is better to grind in then another? Look no further!
          [ NEW LAKE KINDRED DROP RATE SPREADSHEET {{incomplete}} ]
          [ OLD LAKE KINDRED DROP RATE SPREADSHEET ]

          You can scroll through the tabs at the bottom to check
          out each area's data. ^ ^
          It's a Google doc, but everyone who enters is an anonymous animal (except me).
          You don't have to worry about your email or name showing up.

          Things to consider:
              gaia_star This is a work in progress project. The more data that can be inputted,
              the more accurate the percentages will be.
              gaia_star A few percentage points is not a huge difference.
              gaia_star My wording is awful. Let me try to explain it again here.
              gaia_star Overall prob. is that item's probability of dropping in that stage.
              gaia_star C. Probability stands for "Category Probability." Basically, what is the
              chance that that item will be dropped within that category (i.e gold, etc.)
              gaia_star Always looking for input! Please let me know if you notice mistakes or have advice for me!

                Considered by most to be the end game of Lake Kindred, Kindred Wilds Stage 5
                is the most efficient way to make gold in LK. Stage 5 Sycamortes drop 1-2bil 85%
                of the time. Stage 4 sycamortes are not that far behind at 77%. Wondering what
                tree grinding actually means? Check out the Sycamorte Grinding Guide! Save up
                for a stage 5 sycamorte killer by grinding in stage 4, or check out the Rent-A-Kin
                thread
                to get started on your tree chopping journey!

                Although Zen Temple doesn't have the best drop rates for RIGs, it's a relatively
                easy area with a variety of nice drops. You can even attempt to grind for a Sakura
                Pegacorn Fluff
                or Ember the Spirited Fox drop! (Warning: they are very rare though.)
                Zen Temple is great for grinding for potions, Village of Fairies, and Japanese Ghost
                Stories
                . There are some Charge Orbs (12%) and low gold drops to weed through (35%),
                but Zen Temple is a great area for beginners and older players alike.

                Fafnir's Peak has a god awful RIG drop rate at a pitiful 27%. However, Fafnir's Peak
                boasts 23 different RIGs. Of course not all RIGs are worth opening, but players'
                favorites usually include, The Old Ice Fishing Hole, Sakura Fishing Hole, and Winter
                Trunk
                . The low gold drops in this area are plentiful (70%), and the kin here can pack
                a punch, so I don't recommend grinding in this area for the sole purpose of selling
                RIGs. If you're lucky, you can get some really nice items from the RIGs here though!

                Lake Kindred is a good area to start in when you're leveling from about level 1 to
                4. There aren't a ton of potion drops, the alchemy component drops are pretty
                useless, but the kin here are very weak. I would only use this area as a stepping stone
                to level a low leveled kin to make it strong enough to take on other areas.


gaia_star Land of Sweets gaia_star

                User Image - Blocked by "Display Image" Settings. Click to show.



                Land of Sweets has a very good RIG drop rate at around 41%. I personally believe
                the RIGs are pretty good with the exception of Midnight Circus. From personal experience,
                the win rate for that RIG is piss poor. The equip drops in this area can be used to craft
                Peppy Recolors of the Spirited wear. There is also no boss kin in the area to worry about.
                Sometimes the mice can pack a punch, so be careful!

                Gonna be totally honest here, I haven't collected enough data to make any solid
                conclusions about the drop rates here. Most players personally aren't huge fans of this area.
                The slimes are weak, but the RIGs here aren't that great. Most of their prizes have deflated by
                quite a bit. But hey, one person designated this area as their favorite area to grind in, so!

                I also do not have enough data for this area to present number information for you all.
                However, the only worthwhile drops in this area are potions. The gold drops are low and plentiful,
                while orbs also drop frequently. None of the kin here drop eggs, so you will not be able to obtain
                a barkhest or pumpae from grinding in this area. I honestly would never recommend this area
                to anyone.

        SUPER IMPORTANT EDIT:
        Data that includes charge orbs has the potential to be thrown out given that they will be removed after the official release of zOMG. Valentine Stagonies were supposed to be removed. Any data in Zen Temple will not be able to be used. :c


        Are you grinding and interested in providing data to the spreadsheet?
        If you're willing, I'd appreciate that!

Super important though:
        gaia_star You must include every drop you come across, not just rigs or the rarer ones.
        gaia_star If you're battling in an area with a Watermeat BOSS, Ranger Castor BOSS, or Cosmos
        BOSS, please separate its drops from other kin drops. I record them separately.
        gaia_star Please specify every type of drop, even gold drops!
        (i.e, 3k, 7k, Chocolate Cow, etc.)
        gaia_star Please have a minimum of 25 drops per post!
        gaia_star Please format your post like so:


Zen Garden - Stage 3
3k x 6
10k x 5
25k x 14
Matsuri Garden x 5
Village of Fairies x 2

Wish you luck with this!
I did this before and it ended up failing back in the day. Hopefully you get more support than I did! ^^

Thanks! emotion_kirakira

Thank you! May I ask what caused it to fail? Was it difficult to maintain? :c
I'll try my best!

meowology
It wasn't too bad to maintain.
It was mostly people didn't really help me out any, so a good chunk of the data at the time was from myself only. x-x;
There were a few people here and there that helped out, but the help kinda died off after a point.

Though that was many months ago, and there seem to be a lot more active people around here!
So hopefully you'll do much better with it! ^^

I shall try to contribute! It might take me a while to have enough data to send though. I haven't been playing as much lately.

Professional Cat

Sinfulcraft

Ah I see. :c That must be tough being the only one to contribute.
Kinda like the sycamorte drop rate nowadays, although it seems there's more than
enough data on that end.

Thank you! I hope so. cat_4laugh Even if people can't contribute, I'll probably still leave it up,
because it was hell writing all the formulas, ahah.
