How to Read Chest Loot Percentages and Condensed Stacks

When exploring structures like an Ancient City or hunting for specific treasure, you can inspect chest loot tables directly inside your inventory screen through the EMI interface. EMI Loot Mod automatically includes both vanilla items and any custom loot injected into chest tables by other mods in your pack.

Reading Percentages and Averages

1. Open your inventory to view the EMI item sidebar.

2. Look up the target item to view its sources, and switch to the chest loot tab.

3. Review the items displayed for that structure chest, which are automatically sorted by drop percentage from most to least common.

4. Check the stack size number shown directly on an item icon. Instead of a fixed guarantee, this number represents the average item count you can expect to pull from a chest at one time.

Inspecting Condensed Loot Lists

Modded loot tables often contain too many possible rewards to fit cleanly on a single page. When a chest has an overcrowded loot pool, the display condenses items that share the exact same drop chance into a single stacked entry.

1. Locate any grouped percentage entry on the chest loot page.

2. Hover your mouse cursor directly over that percentage list.

3. Read the expanded tooltip to see every possible item stack that shares that drop rate.
