A source-labelled guide to laser drones, rarity rolls, Luck, fleet upgrades, and the roster details that are still missing.
Mine a Planet is built around rolling laser drones and upgrading a fleet that mines planets. The official description confirms the system but does not expose the named roster, exact rates, stats, or a reliable best-drone order.
The official Mine a Planet description presents a simple loop: roll drones, improve Luck, mine planets with laser-equipped helpers, and invest in the fleet. That establishes what the drone system is for, but it does not tell us how a specific drone compares with another. A useful roster needs more than a rarity label. Mining output can also depend on travel speed, beam uptime, cargo limits, planet durability, ore availability, and upgrades. Until those relationships can be observed under the same conditions, this guide separates system facts from ranking guesses.
A rare-looking result is not automatically the most useful result. The game description uses very large one-in-N language, but it does not disclose the underlying table or how Luck modifies it. The odds calculator therefore asks you to enter your own assumed rarity and hypothetical multiplier. It provides exact probability math for that scenario while explicitly refusing to call the inputs real game rates. Use the output to understand probability, not to predict a guaranteed roll or estimate time to obtain a specific drone.
Fresh July 15 Shorts add two useful but still unverified drone phrases to the search surface: purple drones and drones that print money. Those terms matter because they reflect what players may now type into search, but they still come from community videos rather than a creator-published roster, rarity ladder, or stat sheet. This page keeps them as source-watch language instead of converting them into a best-drone list or a named rarity table.
A drone card will be added only when its name and role can be tied to current evidence or a reproducible in-game capture. A letter tier requires more: comparable mining tests, relevant upgrade levels, planet context, and enough corroboration to explain why the order is useful. Community screenshots can be helpful leads, but they should not silently become exact stats. Conflicting results will remain visible as evidence notes until the conditions behind the difference are understood.
The official game description calls them laser drones and presents them as the fleet used to mine planets. It does not publish individual drone names, stats, or role labels.
The public description confirms free unlimited rolls and says Luck can be boosted. Exact weights, the Luck formula, pity, and guarantee rules are not published.
The official description uses a one-in-25-trillion example to advertise extreme rarity. It does not identify a named drone or publish a complete table for that rate.
A July 15, 2026 LeGhostyX Short uses purple drones as a community rarity term, but the official Roblox description still does not publish a named rarity ladder or roster.
There is not enough verified roster and performance evidence to name a best drone. The tier-list page records the ranking criteria and current evidence threshold.
