Corn Machine

Corns are the game's main loot boost. They only work while they sit in the Corn Machine in your Vault. The machine belongs to your account, so it boosts every character you play. Corns carried in your inventory give nothing.

Slots

The machine has 8 slots. They open with claimed Collections: 1 slot at the start, then at 2, 5, 10, 16, 24, 34 and 46 claims. Taking a corn out of the machine is free.

The corn ladder

There are 5 tiers, each with 10 levels:

Tier Loot at level 1 Loot at level 10
Luckcorn +4% +13%
Mythcorn +24% +33%
Wingcorn +44% +62%
Mordicorn +74% +101%
Gumball Corn +114% +150%

Grapes of Wrath stay outside the ladder: each copy you carry gives +2% loot, even from the inventory.

Upgrade

Upgrading a corn costs Scrap plus level 1 Luckcorns from your bag: 1 Luckcorn for a Luckcorn, 2 for a Mythcorn, up to 5 for a Gumball Corn. The Scrap cost grows with the level.

Fuse

Fusing moves a corn up to the next tier.

  • At level 10 the fuse always succeeds.
  • From level 3 you can gamble on an early fuse. The chance grows with the level (4% at level 1 up to 78% at level 9).
  • A failed gamble costs one level, never the tier and never the corn.

Death

When any of your characters dies, 3 random corns in the machine fall 3 steps down the ladder. A corn that passes its level 1 drops a tier: a Wingcorn level 1 becomes a Mythcorn level 8. Luckcorns at level 1 to 3 are safe.
