How to Get Scourge in Droid Tycoon

How do I get Scourge droids in Droid Tycoon?

Get Scourge during Friday windows, Friday 03:00 to Saturday 03:00 UTC: the conveyor, Scourge Surge, World Mission crates, the Scourgedex and the Scourge Boss Fight crates and Scourge belt. 3 placed Scourge beat Stellar and 34 beat any activated Kyber, at any Credits Multi.

Damage Scourge Prime in the Boss Fight, farm Friday windows, run World Missions and keep Scourge droids in work, mission or Protocol slots.

The Short Version

1. Farm while Scourge spawns are on: Saturday, October 24, 2026 at 1:00 PM PDT (8:00 PM UTC) to Sunday, November 1, 2026 at 12:00 PM PST (8:00 PM UTC), then every Friday window, Friday 03:00 UTC to Saturday 03:00 UTC.
2. Fight Scourge Prime in the Scourge Boss Fight, Saturday, October 31, 2026 at 7:00 AM PDT (2:00 PM UTC) to Sunday, November 1, 2026 at 1:00 PM PST (9:00 PM UTC). Every point of damage is event progress, and 240,000 damage unlocks Scourge Prime.
3. During Dawn of the Scourge the conveyor forces a Scourge blueprint every 300 seconds.
4. A placed droid is one in your work stations, Astromech mission slots, Protocol slots or the Upgrade Chip Station. Put your Scourge droids there together so Hive Mind counts them.
5. Keep your activated Kyber until you can fill most of your base with Scourge. It takes 27 placed Scourge to out-earn the same number of Green Kyber of the same droid, 30 for Blue and 34 for Purple.
6. Scourge beats Stellar of the same droid once 3 are placed. Your Credits Multi does not change these counts.
7. Hand spare Scourge droids to the Scourgedex at Scourge Prime. The droid is gone after a hand-in. Every 5 hand-ins pay a Scourge Blueprint Crate.
8. Use Scourge droids for Rebirth requirements of any variant.
9. Do not spend Upgrade Chips trying to reach Scourge. A droid cannot be upgraded into it.

Scourge Boss Fight

Ran Saturday, October 31, 2026 at 7:00 AM PDT (2:00 PM UTC) to Sunday, November 1, 2026 at 1:00 PM PST (9:00 PM UTC). Added in 1.37.0. The 1.36 files had this slot at Saturday, October 31, 2026 at 1:00 PM PDT (8:00 PM UTC) to Sunday, November 1, 2026 at 12:00 PM PST (8:00 PM UTC). 1.37.0 moved the start to 14:00 UTC and the end to 21:00 UTC.

Your progress is the damage you deal to Scourge Prime. Damage boosts from your stats do not inflate it: the game divides your hits by your damage multiplier before counting.

Scourge Prime has 32,000 health for each player in the fight, counting up to 6 players (192,000 at most). Companion droids deal 10% of their damage to it.

After goal 3: every 20,000 damage pays 5 Nova Crystals, up to 1,000 claims (5,000 Nova Crystals).

Event boosts for everyone: +1x Credits, +1x Upgrade Chips and +1 Flawless chance. With the Event Pass each is +1.5x.

Event Pass (Scourge Boss Fight): 2x event progress towards Scourge Prime and +0.5x to all event boosts, 300 V-Bucks.

The Scourgedex takes no hand-ins during the whole event.

How to Fight Scourge Prime

1. Go to the Scourge Prime arena once the event starts. The first Scourge Prime spawns 60 seconds after the event begins. Your jetpack is taken in the arena.
2. Hit Scourge Prime with your weapons. Health pickups in the arena come back every 10 seconds. Clear the B1 and KX Scourge droid waves.
3. Claim 60 Treats at 45,000, Crafting Boost at 120,000 and Scourge Prime at 240,000 damage.
4. When Scourge Prime falls, every player who damaged it gets a Scourge Blueprint Crate. Run to the Sandcrawler: 10 seconds after the defeat screen the belt floods with Scourge for 60 seconds.
5. The next Scourge Prime spawns 5 minutes after a defeat. Each extra 20,000 damage pays 5 Nova Crystals.

Boss damage is multiplied by 1.9 before it hits you. These timings come from the event config. The exact spawn order still needs a live look.

The Scourge Belt After Each Defeat

For 60 seconds the conveyor drops only Epic, Legendary and Mythic blueprints, and 46.27% to 48.06% of them are Scourge. The rest are Rainbow to Kyber, with no Default, Gold or Diamond.

An active Luck Boost pauses during the Scourge belt and resumes afterwards, so it does not burn its time there.

Scourge Prime

Scourge Prime is a new Iconic Protocol droid (1.37.0). It is goal 3 of the Scourge Boss Fight, and the Nova Shop has it configured for 100 Nova Crystals from Monday, November 30, 2026 at 12:00 PM PST (8:00 PM UTC).

Hive Mind Master: "Increases Hive Mind for Scourge Droids". It adds 5 to your Hive Mind count while Scourge Prime is working. Whether a Protocol slot counts as working is not confirmed.

Scourge Prime counts toward Hive Mind wherever it is placed, but gets no Hive Mind multiplier itself: Iconic droids never do.

Scourge Prime is in the Droidex on page 6, slot 1, the entry after C-3PO. The Nova Shop price and date are configured in the build, not confirmed live.

Scourge Income vs Stellar and Kyber

Each variant multiplies a droid's Default income. One Scourge earns 0.90x what a Stellar copy earns and 0.81x to 0.82x what an unactivated Kyber earns, depending on rarity.

An activated Kyber earns much more. Its color multiplies Kyber income: Green x3, Blue x3.25 and Purple x3.6. So a Green Kyber earns 3 times what an unactivated one earns.

Blueprint Cost, Craft Time and Power

Craft time: Stellar x18, Kyber x36, Scourge x14 of the Default time.

Power, which sets companion perk strength: Scourge 7, the same as Stellar. Kyber is 8. A Scourge companion gives Stellar's companion effect.

Hive Mind

Hive Mind is a bonus only Scourge droids get. Each placed Scourge earns extra Credits for every other placed Scourge on your base.

Lounge slots and companions do not count as placed.

The extra is 10.45% of the droid's own income for each other placed Scourge. There is no cap. With 10 placed, each Scourge gets +94.05%.

Since the 1.36.2 hotfix, your Credits Multi, the matching-role bonus and the Protocol bay bonus multiply the Hive Mind extra along with the droid's normal income. In 1.36.0 they did not.

The old 1.36.0 advice that no number of Scourge beats an activated Kyber above Credits Multi x1.45 is out of date.

A base has 38 placements, and all of them count toward Hive Mind: 11 Production work stations, 4 Shipyard work stations, 5 Astromech mission slots, 11 Firing Range lanes, 6 Protocol slots and the Upgrade Chip Station. Only 31 of them earn Credits. The 6 Protocol slots and the Upgrade Chip Station earn none, but a Scourge there still raises the extra for every other Scourge. Protocol slots take Protocol droids only.

The tendrils between droids reach 9 m. They are only visual. The bonus counts every placed Scourge on your base.

1.37.0 adds Scourge Prime to the count. Scourge Prime counts wherever it is placed, and its Iconic trait, Hive Mind Master, adds 5 more. Scourge droids in the same bay as a Scourge Prime working its Credits Protocol slot get double the Hive Mind extra, and any there that did not count before now join the count. Example: 10 placed Scourge plus Scourge Prime with Hive Mind Master count as 16. Each Scourge earns 2.57x its own income, or 4.14x inside Scourge Prime's bay, before the bay's own bonus. This is a calculation, not a value read from the game.

Scourge vs Kyber and Stellar

Kyber and Stellar get no Hive Mind. Since the 1.36.2 hotfix, your Credits Multi multiplies the Hive Mind extra too, so these counts are the same at any Credits Multi. The table shows how many placed Scourge it takes to out-earn the same number of each variant.

With all 38 placements full of Scourge, each one earns 4.87 times what it earns alone.

The counts assume both bases get the same matching-role and Protocol bay bonuses. Protocol slots take Protocol droids only, so past 32 placed some of the Scourge must be Protocol droids. A Kyber Protocol droid gives its bay a bigger bonus than a Scourge one (power 8 against 7), which the table leaves out.

The charts below use RIV-3T, the highest-earning Mythic droid, at Credits Multi x10. Type your own Credits Multi: every line grows by the same amount, so the dots where Scourge pulls ahead stay put.

When Scourge Spawns

• Launch window: Saturday, October 24, 2026 at 1:00 PM PDT (8:00 PM UTC) to Sunday, November 1, 2026 at 12:00 PM PST (8:00 PM UTC).
• Every Friday window, Friday 03:00 UTC to Saturday 03:00 UTC (Thursday 7 PM to Friday 7 PM PST). The first ones after the Scourge week start November 6, November 13 and November 20 at 03:00 UTC (7:00 PM PST the evening before).
• Outside these windows the Scourge conveyor weight is 0. The Scourgedex takes hand-ins while Scourge spawns are on, except during the Scourge Boss Fight.
• Dawn of the Scourge: Saturday, October 24, 2026 at 1:00 PM PDT (8:00 PM UTC) to Sunday, October 25, 2026 at 1:00 PM PDT (8:00 PM UTC).
• Scourge Boss Fight: Saturday, October 31, 2026 at 7:00 AM PDT (2:00 PM UTC) to Sunday, November 1, 2026 at 1:00 PM PST (9:00 PM UTC). The Scourgedex is closed for all of it.
• The Scourge week, the Scourge world and Scourge Prime on the map end Sunday, November 1, 2026 at 12:00 PM PST (8:00 PM UTC). After that they return on Friday windows only.
• World Missions come every 15 minutes during a Friday window instead of every 30. The game schedules 26 of them, the last starting Thursday, April 29, 2027 at 8:00 PM PDT (April 30, 2027, 3:00 AM UTC).

Every Way to Get Scourge

• Conveyor. 0.22% to 0.69% per blueprint by rarity without luck. The table below has each rarity.
• Dawn of the Scourge spawns. A Scourge blueprint every 300 seconds during the event, the first 20 seconds in. That is up to 288 timed spawns over the 24 hours.
• Scourge Surge. 500 V-Bucks or 450 Nova Crystals, on sale from Saturday, October 24, 2026 at 1:00 PM PDT (8:00 PM UTC). A wave every 30 seconds for 5 minutes (10 waves). Each wave turns 10% of the blueprints it passes into Scourge, at least 1 per wave. It is also the first Dawn of the Scourge reward and a Super Rebirth Nova perk (Scourge Surge Token).
• World Missions. While Scourge spawns are on, missions grant a Scourge Blueprint Crate, and blueprint rewards roll Scourge at 50%.
• Gonk-O-Ween shop. Scourge Blueprint Crate for 10 Treats on the Consumables page, which unlocks when the event starts. The crate is always Scourge.
• Scourgedex. Every 5 hand-ins pay a Scourge Blueprint Crate.
• Scourge Boss Fight. A Scourge Blueprint Crate for every player who damaged Scourge Prime, at every defeat, then 60 seconds of Epic and better blueprints, 46.27% to 48.06% Scourge.

Chances are per blueprint of that rarity while Scourge spawns are on, with no Droid Luck Boost. Outside the Scourge windows the Scourge weight is 0.

The Consumables prices were read from the game files in code order. Check them in game before you plan around them.

Scourgedex

Scourge Prime keeps the Scourgedex: 90 entries, one for every non-Iconic collection droid. Choose "Surrender Scourge Droid" to log one.

A hand-in surrenders the droid. It is gone. It has to be unlocked, not busy and not sold. Every 5 hand-ins pay a Scourge Blueprint Crate.

Hand-ins pay Treats until Gonk-O-Ween's Treat earning ends, Sunday, November 1, 2026 at 12:00 PM PST (8:00 PM UTC). After that the Treat part is paid as Nova Crystals, 5 per Treat.

The Scourgedex is closed during the Scourge Boss Fight, and the Scourge week ends first, so hand-ins next open on the first Friday window, Thursday, November 5, 2026 at 7:00 PM PST (November 6, 2026, 3:00 AM UTC).

A repeat hand-in of a droid already logged pays Credits: sell value x your sell multiplier x 1.5. This was read from the code path and has not been seen in game yet.

Scourgedex Milestones

After Gonk-O-Ween the 10-entry reward is 300 Nova Crystals instead of 60 Treats.

The reward config uses 10, 25 and 70 entries for the Treat and Nova rewards. The game's message text names 10, 20 and 40. Check the counter in game.

Dawn of the Scourge

Ran Saturday, October 24, 2026 at 1:00 PM PDT (8:00 PM UTC) to Sunday, October 25, 2026 at 1:00 PM PDT (8:00 PM UTC). One 24-hour window.

The event banner says "Craft Scourge Droids". The exact progress source has not been traced in the game files.

After goal 3: every 4 progress pays 5 Nova Crystals, up to 1,000 claims (5,000 Nova Crystals).

Event Pass (Dawn of the Scourge): 2x event progress and +0.5x to all event boosts.

The event has depot speed, pickaxe and Credits buffs. Their amounts are not in the game config.

Next event: the Scourge Boss Fight, Saturday, October 31, 2026 at 7:00 AM PDT (2:00 PM UTC) to Sunday, November 1, 2026 at 1:00 PM PST (9:00 PM UTC). See the Scourge Boss Fight section above.

Rules and What Not to Do

• Do not try to upgrade into Scourge with Upgrade Chips. The game rejects Scourge as an upgrade target.
• Since 1.37.0 Scourge droids roll Flawless from the Droid Depot and Fusion. Base chance 1 in 101, the same as Beskar, before Flawless boosts.
• Rebirth checks "this variant or higher", and Scourge has the highest variant ID, so a Scourge droid clears a requirement for any variant.
• Do not leave Scourge droids in lounge slots and companions. They earn nothing from Hive Mind there.
• Do not hand in a Scourge droid you still need. The Scourgedex keeps the entry, not the droid.
• Iconic droids never take variants, so there is no Iconic Scourge.
• Collecting 25 Scourge droid types adds +600% Credits Multi, the biggest collection milestone in the game.
