Drill upgrade cards

All 21 drill cards, the coin price ladder by rarity, which cards deep-run notes buy first, and the Driller discount.

Upgrade stops offer four cards. Three cost coins. One costs Robux. There are 21 cards in five rarities. Buying a card raises the next price of that rarity. A card can roll up to a higher rarity and grant several levels at once.

Price ladder

Rarity First buy Rise per buy Levels if the card rolls up
Common 100 coins +20 1
Rare 250 coins +50 2
Epic 500 coins +100 3
Legendary 1,000 coins +200 4
Mythic 10,000 coins +1,000 10

Read the climb as each buy of a rarity adding its step to that rarity's next price. The total for n buys is n times the first price, plus the step times n times (n minus 1) divided by 2. Five Common cards cost 700 coins. Ten Common cards cost 1,900. Driller's discount is not in that formula. At level 2, Driller cuts Drill Power, Mega Drill, and Power Slam by 50%.

The community wording of the climb is loose. If your in-game price does not match the next step, trust the number on the card.

What to take

For boss walls, RPM Overclock, Ultra Drill, and Power Burst are the named trio. Early, while cards are still Common, Drill Power moves the Grass through Clay walls. Fuel Storage and sack space are comfort buys, not substitutes for wall damage. Team Health and Health Regen matter once Toxic and Frozen hits stick. Buy Firepower, Sharpness, or Blast Power only for the weapon the party actually uses.

Executioner's level 4 perk is described as a free upgrade, chosen from three, each time you beat a boss. That is a boss reward, not a discount on the coin ladder.

Cards last for the run. They do not carry into the next descent unless a church save covers the gear you stored. Cards themselves are not listed as church gear.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Drill to Earth's Core?

It is a free Roblox co-op descent by the Game Name. group. A party rides one drill through named layers, fights enemies, loots structures, and spends coins on upgrade cards. A normal run ends at the Glowing Core boss wall at 100 km.

Is Drill to Earth's Core the same game as Dig to Earth's CORE!?

No. Dig to Earth's CORE! is a different Roblox game by Slime Mine Studios. Codes such as UPDATEHYPE, INDIGO, and DIGGEM5000 belong to that game and do not redeem here.

What should a new player buy first?

Miner is described as one of two classes a new player can take for free on the first join. Both Tier 1 classes are listed at 100 Cores if you buy them later. After that, Witch is the highest-ranked 3,000 Core class on the 25 September 2026 board, and Lucky Looter at 10,000 Cores is the usual loot follow-up.

How many players share a server?

A public listing read on 19 October 2026 caps the server at 20 players. Party setup notes say a party holds 1 to 8. Older pages that say 30 players disagree with that listing.
