Arachnid Claws and Tapioca exploit

From the Polandball Go Wiki

On October 12, 2026, a group of players found a way to turn one Tapioca into dozens, and with it dozens of chances at its best drops. The developers caught it within a day, reverted it, and compensated the players involved with Clay.

1 How it worked#

The trick paired two item effects.

Arachnid Claws (✦✦✦✦) reads "On hit: apply 3 stacks of Poison, then split the target into 2 copies with half its current HP." Each hit doubles the Mymic it lands on.

Matrix, applied by items such as Digital Soul, cuts the damage being dealt by a large amount.

With Matrix holding the damage down, players could keep hitting Tapioca with Arachnid Claws and split it again and again, into about 50 copies, before finishing them off.

2 Why it paid off#

Raid drops roll once per kill, for everyone in the party. Every Tapioca copy counted as its own kill, so every copy was another roll at Tapioca's drops. Those include Shadowscript Brush (✦✦✦✦) and Inkstained Pages (✦✦✦).

3 The fix#

The developers reverted the exploit within 24 hours. Players who used it lost the items they'd gained and were given 10,000 Clay instead.

4 On polbielytics#

Raids from that day still count toward the site's drop rates and luck scores the way the game recorded them. See Raids and Mymics for how drops work per kill.
