New World Void Ore Drop Rate

A recent Dev Blog by the New World team shed some light on how exactly luck affects the loot tables in the game. We always knew the drop rate for [item_voidore] is low, but not that low!

Drop Rates

Lets take a look at our drop rates for various luck values. The following table assumes you are already Level 200 Mining, which gives you a 2000 luck boost (10 luck per level). The luck value from the table refers to the extra luck, coming from food, perks, etc.

Luck [item_voidore] Drop Rate [item_cinnabart1] / [item_tolviumt1] Drop Rate
0 0.0045% 0.1%
1,000 0.0235% 0.6%
2,000 0.045% 1.1%
3,000 0.065% 1.6%
4,000 0.085% 2.1%
5,000 0.105% 2.6%
6,000 0.125% 3.1%
7,000 0.145% 3.6%
8,000 0.165% 4.1%
9,000 0.185% 4.6%
10,000 0.205% 5.1%
11,000 0.225% 5.6%

In the long run, you will usually have at least 140 times more [item_cinnabart1] and [item_tolviumt1] (combined) than [item_voidore]
