Pet Simulator 99 Hacker Keys Guide

Getting Hacker Keys in Pet Simulator 99 is straightforward but still ultimately requires luck. These keys drop randomly throughout the entire game, so in any area, but Hacker world offers a significantly higher chance of finding them. Remember, you can’t trade them with other players, so get ready to farm them yourself, but they are ways to boost your odds of getting Hacker Keys.

Playing with Friends

The more friends you have playing online with you, the better! With a maximum of three friends online, your key drop chance increases by a whopping 30%. Additionally, watch out for special “Key Area Surges” that appear in specific areas, boosting key drops by 2.5 times.

Hacker Enchant

The Hacker update of PS99 has added a new enchant, aptly named the Hacker Key Hunter. This enchant doubles or triples the number of keys you receive from each drop. Imagine finding three keys instead of just one! But, the only way of acquiring this helpful enchant is by a drop from the Hacker Chest itself.

Maximizing Your Drops

To truly increase your chances of finding Hacker Keys, unleash everything you’ve got to boost your drop rates. This includes Treasure Hunter Potions for a lucky edge, unleashing your Ultimate Spells, and equipping powerful items like Glitched Drives, delicious food like Pineapples and Rainbow Fruit, Candy Canes, and Flags. The more boosts you use, the better your chances of finding those elusive keys.

Don’t forget about your furry companions! Equip your strongest pets to help you farm and grind for keys more efficiently.

Your Build

Consider adding Enchantments like Treasure Hunter and Chest Mimic to your books. These Enchantments further increase your drop rates, making Hacker Keys appear more frequently during your farming sessions.
