Claw Machine
Gems in, pets out — cost per world, the intro sale, free pulls, the exact roll with Pet Score boosts, mythic pity, shiny odds and every pet's chance per world.
Overview
The CLAW MACHINE is where pets come from. Each pull costs gems and drops one pet from the machine of the world you are standing on — every world has its own cabinet with its own pool of eight (two commons, two uncommons, a rare, an epic, a legendary and a mythic). Exclusive pets (the Void Warden, Hoard Mimic, Vinnie, bundle pets and friends) never come from the claw.
Cost per pull
| World | Price | Intro sale | |
|---|---|---|---|
| World 1 · Classic | 200  | — | |
| World 2 · Aurora | 300 | 225 for your first 50 paid pulls | |
| World 3 · Flora | 400 | 300 for your first 50 paid pulls | |
| World 4 · Maelstrom | 500 | 375 for your first 50 paid pulls |
Worlds past the first run an intro sale: your first 50 paid pulls in that world are 25% off (a “SALE 25% OFF” sign hangs on the glass while it lasts). Free pulls never use up the allowance.
Free pulls
- Welcome Tasks — one free pet roll per task (Launch 500 balls, Spend 100K coins in the Arcade, Level any pet to Lv 10). Welcome rolls are drawn from the four starter pets Lucky Rabbit, Piggy Banker, Silver Magpie, Bandit Raccoon, preferring ones you don't own; the very first free pull is always the Lucky Rabbit.
- Daily Quests — the 150-point weekly chest includes 1 free pull.
- Invite friends — 10 friends invited = 1 free pull.
- Free pulls grant pets that cannot be traded; gem-paid pulls can be traded once.
How the pull is rolled
- Every pet in the world's pool has a fixed weight: common 25%, uncommon 15%, rare 15%, epic 4.15%, legendary 0.75%, mythic 0.1% — the base odds in the tables below (they sum to 100% per world).
- Rare-or-better boost: the combined chance of everything rare and above is multiplied by your Pet Score tier plus your rare-pet-luck bonus (Marquee, pet items such as the Lucky Penny, and pet buffs, multiplied together). Commons and uncommons shrink to fill what is left, keeping their ratio to each other; the low pool can never drop below 2%.
- Mythic pity: each world counts your pulls since its last mythic; the 400th pull without one is guaranteed to be that world's mythic.
- Shiny: every pet granted anywhere rolls 1 in 1,000 for a shiny variant (any shiny-chance buff multiplies that base rate rather than adding to it).
- Duplicates are kept as separate pets. Three copies of the same species at the same star fuse into the next star (Pet Fusion), and spares can be salvaged for Pet Essence. Only one copy of a species can be equipped at a time.
Pet Score rare boost
Your Pet Score is the sum over every pet you own of rarity weight × star × level × (2 if shiny) — weights common 1, uncommon 2, rare 3, epic 5, legendary 10, mythic 40. Crossing a tier multiplies the rare-or-better share of every pull (it can be switched off in the claw's PET SCORE panel). Shown for the World 1 · Classic pool, whose base rare-or-better chance is 20%:

Per-world odds
Base chance is a pull with no boosts; the last column is the same pull at the top Pet Score tier (×2) with no other luck. In-game, the DROP RATES screen shows your live numbers.

Tips
- Pull in the world whose pets you actually need — the pool is decided by the board you are standing on, so hop worlds before you spend.
- Use the intro sale: the first 50 paid pulls in a new world are 25% cheaper, which is 3,750 saved in World 2 · Aurora alone.
- Pity is per world: 400 pulls in one world guarantees that world's mythic, so spreading pulls across worlds resets nothing but also finishes nothing.
- Build Pet Score before big pull sessions — at ×2 the rare-or-better share doubles and every legendary and mythic doubles with it.
