Steals, Drops, and Cards

Source Item Chance
Steal Green Bottle IconHi-Potion (Common) 70.0%
Pale Blue Jar IconAntidote (Uncommon) 23.3%
Drop Nothing dropped 100%
Card Tetra Master Card IconFeather Circle Card 12.5%

Steal chances are the odds of each result when a steal connects. The game rolls for the rarest item first, so a rare steal can take many attempts, and a steal can also fail outright against a high-level enemy. The Skill IconMaster Thief ability raises a very rare steal to 12.5%. Check out the How Stealing and Enemy Drops Work page for more information.
