Understand Item Rarity Tiers and Search Times

How Rarity Affects Search Duration

Search Carefully Mod categorizes items by rarity, and each tier has a different reveal time. Common items appear almost instantly, while rare and epic items require patience. The mod displays rarity calculation progress in your chat, showing you which items are being uncovered and their status.

Recognizing Rarity Levels

When you hover over revealed items in a chest, you can see their rarity designation. Items progress through different tiers—from basic common items to increasingly rare variants. The rarity tier directly determines how long the magnifying glass icon stays in that slot before the item fully appears.

Using Rarity Information Strategically

  • Chat messages confirm progress: Watch your chat for rarity calculation messages that tell you when items are being found.
  • Plan your time accordingly: If you see a chest contains epic-tier items, expect a longer search duration.
  • Compare across structures: Different structure types contain different rarity distributions, so loot dungeons for common drops and mansions for epic items.
