Mine a Planet Drone Tier List — Best Drones Ranked (2026)

Its own placard was on screen reading 1 in 25,000,000 — one of only two Exotic odds ever captured on video, the other being Zephyr Zed.

One of only two Exotic pedestals ever captured on video, its own placard reading 1 in 25,000,000 in July 2026 BETA 8 footage. All four Exotic slots now carry names, while the two tiers above it stay unfilmed. What has been published about drones is band-level roll odds plus three fleet-level upgrade names; no per-drone stat has ever been published for any band.

Named in footage as the chase target for endgame rollers, but the 1 in 25,000,000 shown here is the Exotic band figure, read off the Nebula Ned and Zephyr Zed pedestals — nothing has ever been read off its own placard, which was never on screen.

Holds one of the four named Exotic slots, the highest rarity anyone has filmed; the 1 in 25,000,000 is the band figure read off the Nebula Ned and Zephyr Zed pedestals in July 2026 footage — no odds has ever been read off its own pedestal, which was never filmed, and its cost and output stay unknown.

Pedestal carried a $100B price tag — the highest figure read off any drone pedestal in this index, because the costlier items on our mutations page are Gear Shop chips, not drones and not part of this index. The 1 in 12,800,000 is the Divine band figure read off other Divine pedestals in July 2026 footage; no odds has ever been read off its own.

Its own pedestal gave the Divine band both its odds and its money: 1 in 12.8M and a $25B price tag in July 2026 footage. Divine and Exotic differ by less than a factor of two on odds, so the visible gap between the two S tiers is price — income has never been published for any individual drone, and the one earnings figure on this page is an on-screen observation.

Seen deployed at level 18 earning $6.6M per unit — an on-screen observation of one deployment, and one of the few earnings figures ever seen for a single drone; no per-drone stat has been published. The 1 in 12,800,000 is the Divine band figure read off other Divine pedestals, never off its own.

Registered in the Divine tab, where four of five slots now carry names; that band's 1 in 12,800,000 comes from other Divine pedestals filmed in July 2026. Within the named four it is the only one with no pedestal and no price on screen, which is a gap in our evidence, not a claim about the drone.

Its own pedestal is the only Secret odds anyone has captured, reading roughly 1 in 4,000,000 in July 2026 footage. Secret has two index slots with one still unnamed, so this one drone anchors the whole upper half of band A, and its per-drone stats stay unpublished.

Its own pedestal supplied the number every other Mythic on this page is judged by: 1 in 100,000 in July 2026 footage, with seven of eight Mythic slots now named. Below it sits a 9,355-to-1 Legendary rung and above a roughly four-million Secret, so it is the floor of band A.

Confirmed independently by two separate creators, which is a higher bar than most entries here clear — but those sightings prove this Mythic exists, not its numbers: the 1 in 100,000 is the band figure read off Rusty Rumbles' pedestal, and no odds has ever been read off a Honkenstein placard.

Its placement comes from one documented fact alone: the drone index lists it in the Mythic tab, a band reading 1 in 100,000 off another Mythic's pedestal in July 2026 footage, with seven of eight slots named. The name suggests gold, but no income figure exists for any drone here.

Already one of the seven named Mythics, so the open question in this band is the one ??? seat still waiting for a name. The 1 in 100,000 is the band figure read off another Mythic's pedestal, Rusty Rumbles, recorded in July 2026, never off Diggy Smalls' own placard. Filling that last unnamed seat still matters, because index completion milestones pay a permanent cash bonus.

One of the seven Mythic slots the index has filled by name, sitting under the same 1 in 100,000 that July 2026 footage read off a neighbouring Mythic pedestal. Its own screen evidence stops at the tab entry, and no attribute, level cap or cost has been published for it.

Two documented facts put it in band A: a July 2026 index entry in the Mythic tab, whose 1 in 100,000 came from a same-band pedestal, and a sighting of this same drone at Secret rarity. That pairing is why the index records a home tier, not a ceiling.

The drone index lists it under Mythic, the same band another pedestal read at 1 in 100,000 in July 2026 footage. Beyond that tab entry nothing is documented: its own pedestal was never filmed, and the name is generic enough that no footage we found can be confidently attributed to it.

Its own placard was on screen at 1 in 9,355 — the figure the entire Legendary band is anchored on, and the only Legendary odds ever read off a pedestal.

Legendary puts it in band B, the same band as Epic, and the tier's 1 in 9,355 was read off Aqua Augustus' pedestal in July 2026 footage rather than its own. Four of five Legendary slots are named; how often anyone rolls was never observed, so 9,355 is not a wait this drone personally owes you.

The index lists it in the Legendary tab, four of five slots named, sharing a band whose 1 in 9,355 came from a same-band pedestal — Aqua Augustus — in July 2026 footage, never off its own. Nothing in our record ties the “Rocket” name to performance: Mining Power, Cargo and Speed are published as fleet-level upgrades, and no per-drone stat line exists for any band.

One of four named Legendary drones out of five slots, a band whose 1 in 9,355 was captured on a same-tier pedestal in July 2026 footage, not its own. Its own evidence stops at the index tab: no published stat gives Mining Power, income or price for any drone — those three names exist only as fleet-level upgrades.

The 1 in 1,280 shown here is the Epic band figure: our evidence log lists The Choo-Twins among the three pedestals that cross-checked it in July 2026 footage, but the drone table note for this entry records only that it matches the ~1-in-1,280 band reported for the Drone Pack from the DRONES code — a reported figure, not a read we re-verified.

Its own pedestal was seen at the Epic band, but the same drone was also observed rolled at Divine — a drone can land above its usual tier.

One of three pedestals that cross-checked the Epic band at 1 in 1,280 in July 2026 footage, and the one this site holds a dated screenshot of, showing the Epic Bumble Buggy line at the roll station. Epic has five of six slots named.

Epic is the densest-documented band below Legendary: three separate pedestals read 1 in 1,280 in July 2026 footage — none of them Drillon's own — and the DRONES code's Drone Pack was reported in the same range, though that report is still flagged needs-check. Drillon holds one of the five named Epic slots.

One of five named Epic drones, a band whose 1 in 1,280 was read off three same-tier pedestals in July 2026 footage, none of them Smiley Riley's own. No weighting inside a tier has ever been published, so nothing in the record ranks Smiley Riley against the other four Epics; its band B placement comes from the index tab alone.

Rare is the top of band C, and this is one of three named drones in that tab. The rarity ladder in the drone index lists Rare at 1 in 45 across four slots; nothing was ever filmed saying so, so it stays a ladder-table figure rather than an on-screen sighting.

Registered in the Rare tab, one of three named against four index slots. Every Rare on this page shares the ladder figure of 1 in 45, which exists only as a table reading with nothing filmed behind it. Naming these three still moves the drone index toward the 25% milestone, which pays a permanent cash bonus.

The third Rare drone named so far, leaving one slot in that tab as an unnamed silhouette. Like the others here it inherits the ladder's 1 in 45, a figure with no filmed source and no published weighting inside the tier, so nothing in our record separates one Rare from another.

One of two Uncommon drones named out of four slots, holding the ladder's 1 in 18 as a table figure with nothing filmed behind it. It lands in band C only because Rare and below all sit there; a registered drone adds a deployable slot, and Fleet Size is the direct output multiplier.

The second Uncommon drone named, so half of that four-slot tab is still a ??? silhouette. Its 1 in 18 comes from the rarity ladder table alone; the filmed readings in July 2026 footage start at Epic and climb from there, so nothing supports an on-screen line for this tier.

The only Common drone named anywhere, holding one of two slots. The 1 in 9 is a ladder-table figure, and the “one slot seen” note beside it is our own rarity-ladder table remarking that only one of the two Common seats has been documented — it is not text read off the game screen. Our drone table also tags this one starter-tier, again an editorial label, and no published data says which drone players roll first.
