Core Mechanics
Our tier list evaluates drills on four criteria: Diglets per hour (35%), legendary drop rate (25%), dig speed (20%), and value for cost (20%). Rankings shift with game updates and balance patches.
Key Advantages
Community-driven rankings reflect real gameplay data. The tier list helps new players avoid wasting Diglets on underperforming drills and focus on the best upgrades.
Challenges & Tips
Tier rankings are subjective and depend on your playstyle. A drill that's S-tier for Diglets/hour may be A-tier for legendary hunting. Always consider your specific goals when choosing drills.
