List of All Prospecting Modifiers

This section lists every modifier available in Prospecting Roblox. Each entry details its effects on resource yields, rarity chances, and activation conditions. Use the table below to compare stats and plan your mining runs.

That said, here are all the modifiers in Prospecting along with their sale value multipliers.

How to Increase Modifier Chances in Prospecting

Focusing on higher-quality tools, consistent gameplay, and smart upgrades can raise your modifier chances in Prospecting. Using pickaxes with better stats and equipping game passes that boost rarity will significantly improve your odds. Joining prospecting events or servers with active multipliers also increases the rate at which modifiers appear. Finally, rebirthing and investing in skill enhancements often provide permanent percentage boosts to modifier chances, making progress faster over time.

Now, you know all about the modifiers in Prospecting and their value multipliers. However, if you don’t have the proper gear or crafted equipment, obtaining minerals with modifiers won’t be easy, and increasing your cash flow can become difficult.

So, here are a couple of ways to obtain more Prospecting minerals with modifiers:

1. Best Pans for Modifier Boost

Currently, Prospecting only has three pans whose passive directly gives you an upper hand in obtaining modifiers on minerals you find. So, here are the pans you should consider unlocking in your Prospecting pan progression to get more modifiers:

• Meteoric Pan: The Meteoric Pan has 25% more chance to get modified items, and costs the least of all. So consider buying it if you’re still in mid-game.
• Diamond Pan: With one of the highest capacity in Prospecting, this pan can give you a modifier boost and a size boost of 10% in the game.
• Aurora Pan: This one comes with a 25% modifier boost along with the highest amount of luck and capacity. Therefore the ultimate pan that you must have in Prospecting right now.

You may further apply the Unstable enchantment on your pan to get a bonus 25% Modifier boost. However, you need Aurorite to enchant your Prospecting pan, and the drop rate for the Unstable enchantment is as low as 2%. So, you may need to pray to the RNG Gods to be by your side when you enchant the pan.

2. Best Equipment for Modifier Boost

Apart from using some of the best pans in Prospecting, you can equip a few crafted materials to get an additional boost to get modified minerals in the game. Have a look at this Prospecting crafting recipes guide if you’re still ignorant about this mechanic. Once done, feel free to craft the following equipment to stack up on modifier boost:

• Smoke Ring: Boosts the modifier chance by 5-15%, and it requires 4x Smoky Quartz and 20,000 cash.
• Opal Amulet: Increases the modifier chance by 0-90%. It requires 1x Opal and 3x Jade to craft it.
• Guiding Light: It will grant you a modifier boost of 5-25%. It requires 1x Catseye and 2x Golden Pearl to craft it.
• Lightkeeper’s Ring: Boosts modifier chance by 5-25%, and it requires 2x Opal, 1x Lumium to craft it.
• Celestial Rings: Grants a modifier boost of 20-140%, and it requires 4x Ashvein, 10x Ruby, 2x Palladium, and 1x Painite to craft.
