Amplified Odds

Amplified Odds is a Proc Manipulation path perk for pickaxe prestige. It gives a flat increased bonus to every mining proc chance on that pickaxe.

At a glance

Path Proc Manipulation
Roll 21% to 31% increased proc chance
Slots Any perk slot (P1, P5, P10)
Stacking Additive with every other increased-proc source

How it works

Increased is additive. Amplified Odds does not multiply on top of your other proc bonuses. It drops into one shared pool with all of them, and the pool is applied once:

  • The prestige Global Proc Chance base stat
  • Armour trim increased-proc bonuses
  • Midas window bonuses

So a 20% Amplified Odds on top of 30% from other increased sources is 50% increased, not 1.20 x 1.30.

Only two mining multipliers stay outside the pool and multiply separately: the pickaxe's Lucky modifier and the phantom-mining multiplier.

What it does not touch

Amplified Odds scales proc chances. It does not scale rolls that sit on top of a proc rather than being one:

  • Cataclysmic Shatter's +1 radius roll — volume is cubic in radius, so scaling it would roughly double Shatter output
  • Heart of Gaia's drop and shard-to-contraband conversion, which are loot rolls

Notes

  • Because it raises how often things proc naturally, it indirectly feeds Twinned and Second Chance, which both need a natural proc to hook onto.
  • The same pool raises the chance of the meteorite perks Thunderhead and Starlens, and the Shatter and Powerball rolls behind Spall and Debris Field.
  • It does not affect procs that were force-fired by Twinned or Overcharge — those skip the chance roll entirely.
  • Read the wording carefully: see increased vs more.
  • Pickaxes that rolled below 21% before Map 4 were lifted to 21%.
