Grab Ores Tier List
Grab Ores Roblox ore tier list ranked S through D. Best ores for income, rarity, and depth requirements updated for 2026.
The Grab Ores tier list ranks every ore from S-tier (best) to D-tier (sell immediately) based on passive income, rarity, depth accessibility, and overall value to your collection. This ranking is community-sourced from player testing and YouTube gameplay analysis, updated for the September 2026 Ancient Fossils event.
Tier Ranking Criteria
Our Grab Ores ore rankings evaluate four factors:
- Passive Income - Cash generated per second while the ore is equipped. Higher income ranks higher.
- Rarity - Drop rate at appropriate depths. Rarer ores that generate strong income rank above common high-income ores.
- Depth Accessibility - How early you can realistically farm the ore. Ores available at mid-depth rank above those requiring max weight.
- Merge Potential - How much value merging adds. Ores with strong merge scaling rank higher.

Tier List Strategy Tips
Understanding the tier list is only half the battle - knowing how to act on rankings drives progression. Early game players should sell all D-tier and C-tier ores immediately, using the cash for weight upgrades to reach B-tier ore depths faster. Mid-game players at 150-400m should focus on farming A-tier Gold and Emerald ores while merging any B-tier duplicates.
Late-game players hunting S-tier Diamond and Ruby ores need max weight (3,000 kg) and should equip only S-tier and A-tier ores. Use our Rarity Table for exact drop rates and the Merging Guide to maximize income from mid-tier ores during your S-tier hunt.
