Sticker Upgrades

The sticker star shop: 14 uncapped upgrades bought with Sticker Stars — global buffs, album might gate damage and pack luck — with every cost and effect.

Sticker Upgrades is the sticker album's own upgrade shop. It is paid for entirely in Sticker Stars, the currency every sticker pays when you get it, and every upgrade is permanent, has no level cap, and costs a little more each level. Open it from the UPGRADES chip in the header of the album screen.

How buying works

  • Every level adds the same step (the "per level" column), and every level costs the previous one times the row's growth. Costs above 1,000 stars are rounded to three significant figures.
  • The price comes straight off your star balance. Nothing else is taken: your stickers and spares stay where they are.
  • Every row tops out at level 25.
  • Levels are permanent. They survive the season reset. Only the ALBUM MIGHT rows depend on the album you currently hold.
  • Stars come from every sticker you get: it pays its rarity, a gold one ×5 and a rainbow one ×25, the moment it arrives, new or duplicate.

Global upgrades

Every level buffs your whole account. No level cap - each one costs more stars than the last.

COIN GAIN, GOLD BALL PAYOUT, GEM FIND, STICKER DROP, PORTAL CHANCE and VAULT LOOT add to the same buffs the Marquee gives, so they apply everywhere those do. XP GAIN multiplies the XP every ore gives toward your player level, and CANDY LUCK raises the Time Candy drop chance.

Album might

Gate damage for the sets you finish. It counts THIS season's album: a new season empties the album, your levels stay.

UpgradeCountsPer level, per set or cardSets / cards this seasonLevel 10, all of them
ALBUM MIGHTALBUM MIGHTsets completed (all 9 standard stickers)+1%12+120% gate damage
GOLD MIGHTGOLD MIGHTgold cards in the gold album+0.5%42+210% gate damage
RAINBOW MIGHTRAINBOW MIGHTrainbow cards in the rainbow album+2%42+840% gate damage
  • ALBUM MIGHT pays its percentage per level, per set; GOLD MIGHT and RAINBOW MIGHT pay per level, per card in the gold and rainbow albums (there are no gold or rainbow sets — each is one album of 42 cards): level 10 of ALBUM MIGHT with 5 sets complete is +50% gate damage.
  • The three rows are three separate sources of gate damage, and like every gate damage source they multiply with each other and with the rest of your hoard power.
  • A set or card counts while you hold it. A new season empties the album, so the bonus falls to zero and climbs back as you collect again. The levels you bought are never touched.
  • The gold album is every 4★ and 5★ sticker in gold, and the rainbow album the same cards in rainbow — 42 each, spread over 7 of this season's 12 sets. Only the whole album is a completion. See Gold and Rainbow Albums.

Pack luck

Better stickers out of every pack you open - and any pack you earn on the board has a 1 in 100 chance to turn into a RAINBOW PACK, whose last card is always gold.

UpgradeEffectPer levelLevel 1 costCost growth
HIGH-STAR LUCKHIGH-STAR LUCKMore 4 and 5 star stickers in every pack+2%Sticker Stars60×1.15 per level
GOLD LUCKGOLD LUCKMore gold stickers in every pack+5%Sticker Stars80×1.16 per level
RAINBOW LUCKRAINBOW LUCKRaises the chance a pack you earn turns into a RAINBOW PACK+2%Sticker Stars100×1.18 per level

Pack odds start from a reference table with 4★ and 5★ slots cut to ×0.6 and the gold share of those slots cut to ×0.1. HIGH-STAR LUCK and GOLD LUCK multiply those two numbers back up: at the level 25 cap HIGH-STAR LUCK brings 4★ and 5★ slots to ×0.9 of the reference rate, and GOLD LUCK brings the gold share to ×0.225 — neither row fully undoes its cut, so in practice the Rainbow pack's guaranteed gold card is where gold comes from, and RAINBOW LUCK (+2% per level) raises its drop chance.

Per-slot odds by luck level

Chance that one pack slot is a 4★ or 5★ sticker of any kind, and chance that it is gold, with HIGH-STAR LUCK and GOLD LUCK both at the level shown. Pack guarantees add to this — see per-pack chances.

Tips

  • Early levels are cheap everywhere — a few levels in every row costs less than pushing one row deep.
  • ALBUM MIGHT is only worth what your album is: buy it as your sets fill in, and expect it to restart each season.
  • Gold and rainbow stickers pay far more stars than normal ones, so PACK LUCK pays for itself in stars as well as cards.
