SupplyDrops
Tiered Supply Drop system with Common, Rare, Epic, and Legendary drops
SupplyDrops
Timed, tiered supply drops that land across your world — packed with loot and built for survival servers.
SupplyDrops automatically spawns loot-filled copper chests at random locations across your world on a configurable schedule. Four rarity tiers keep the economy interesting, from casual Common drops to rare Legendary events that shake the whole server.
