What TornLife's research has established about Drug Pack item, and the questions players asked about it.
What TornLife has verified
- The Drug Pack is item ID 370, type Supply Pack, described on the wiki as "A drug pack from Symbiotic Ltd." It can be found in the city, acquired via SYM's Benefit block, or received as a Subscriber Reward. (documented; Drug Pack › Possible Contents, )
- Opening a Drug Pack yields either 10 Xanax or 10 Vicodin, never a mix and never other items, per the current Torn Wiki infobox and table entry. (documented; Supply Pack — Supply Packs (rows 1/2), )
- If Vicodin is the reward, each dose gives +25% to all Fighting stats and +75 Happy, with a cooldown of 240-360 minutes; overdosing causes -150 Happy. (documented; Drug Pack › Possible Contents, )
- A Drug Pack is opened via an in-game "Open" action (reported as a button in a 2026 bug thread); successful opening produces a system log entry such as "You opened a Drug Pack and gained 10x Xanax." (documented; Opening drug pack not doing anything, )
- Bugs with Drug Pack opening have been reported and handled by staff over the years: a 2014 report of browser freezing/crashing when reusing packs in quick succession (staff could not reproduce), a 2024 report of missing contents where staff manually credited the missing 5 Xanax, and a 2026 report of clicking Open producing no effect, referred to an existing confirmed bug report. (player reports; Opening drug pack not doing anything, )
- The wiki's Drug Pack contents (10 Xanax or 10 Vicodin) are identical across captures from 2023-09-26 and 2025-03-15, indicating no change to the possible contents in that window. (documented; Supply Pack — Supply Packs (rows 1/2), )
- Torn staff member bogie stated in 2016 that Drug Packs give a 50/50 chance of either Vicodin or Xanax, and that opening one yields 10 of whichever drug is rolled. (confirmed by Torn; Drug packs, )
- Torn staff member bogie reiterated in 2021 that Drug Packs are a 50/50 chance of Xanax or Vicodin, noting this mechanic floods the market with Vicodin and keeps its price low relative to its battle-stat benefit. (confirmed by Torn; Vicodin (The under priced part of the drug family), )
- A 2018 bug investigation by a developer confirmed the system log records each Drug Pack opening with an exact timestamp and outcome, e.g. repeated entries of 'opened a Drug Pack and gained 10x Vicodin', and that a player's drug count discrepancy was resolved once intervening Vicodin use/purchases were accounted for -- no bug was found.
