Wheel Hamster guide
Wheel Hamster is the lightest Mythic in the game, with a base weight of just 4 kg, and it's the first rung of the Experimental Egg at $450K/s.
The Experimental banner
Dr. Scramble's Laboratory, added in Update 6 to replace the Rift Trade-In Machine, rotates through three banners. Experimental is the middle one: it draws from Cosmic, Cherry Blossom and Titan Temple eggs. The pets it asks for include Centapede, Cosmic Gecko, Cosmic Gorilla and La Vacca Saturno Saturnita from Cosmic; Crane, Salamander, Red Panda, Koi and Snowy Owl from Cherry Blossom; and Crustacia, Spideron, Bladehide, Mantaris and Rhinotaur from Titan Temple. Since Update 6 you can trade in eggs directly, and pity now guarantees the top reward instead of a random top-3 one.
If you haven't reached Titan Temple's 7B Speed yet, the Cosmic and Cherry Blossom pets still count toward this banner.
The Experimental Egg's line-up
- Wheel Hamster, Mythic, $450K/s
- Stacked Turtle, Cosmic, $12M/s
- Three Headed Chicken, Cosmic, $165M/s
- Eyeball Crab, Secret, $825M/s
- Dreadstinger, Eternal, $2B/s
Wheel Hamster is 6th of 23 Mythic pets (tied with Red Panda and Shardling), and 121 of 198 pets earn more.
Tiny base, big multipliers
The wiki's formula uses the ratio of actual to base weight and adds diminishing returns past 125x. With a 4 kg base, that threshold sits at only 500 kg. Estimates:
- Golden: about $1.12M/s
- Rainbow: about $1.57M/s
- 10x base weight: about $1.86M/s
- 100x base weight: about $7.7M/s
- Rainbow at 100x weight: about $27M/s
The Experiment Shop's Scrambled Mutation (x2.75, 10% chance per use) would land a plain Wheel Hamster around $1.24M/s.
