Class Loot

Deckside Argument is class loot. It has no fixed stats: its enchantments are rolled every time it drops, so no two copies are exactly alike, and harder difficulties allow higher enchantment levels. When a mob drops class loot, each player who wins the drop roll gets one item from that mob’s class loot pool, weighted toward their class.

Dropped as class loot by:

Boatswain Boss, Quark the Quartermaster, Living Boiler, Wharf Wayfinder, Big Chungus, The Prowler (minibosses): 25% chance per player who dealt at least 10% of the mob’s health
Bow Bowsman, Noxious Bowsman, Powder Monkey, Swashbuckling Scourge, Mess Hall Mate, Buccaneer Bodyguard, Ship Rat, Overfed Skipper, Airship Dockhand, Forest Skipper (regular mobs): 5% chance per player who dealt at least 10% of the mob’s health

Possible Enchantments

The levels below are the most each enchantment can roll. Each drop receives about half of the listed levels at random, so most copies land below these maximums. The chance shows how often an enchantment appears at all.

From minibosses:

Difficulty	Possible Enchantments
Normal	Power up to III (always) Unbreaking up to II (65%) Quick Charge up to II (65%) Multishot up to I (65%) Piercing up to II (90%)
Hard	Power up to III (always) Unbreaking up to IV (85%) Quick Charge up to III (65%) Multishot up to I (65%) Piercing up to III (85%)
Mythic	Power up to IV (always) Unbreaking up to V (85%) Quick Charge up to III (65%) Multishot up to I (65%) Piercing up to IV (85%)

From regular mobs:

Difficulty	Possible Enchantments
Normal	Power up to II (always) Unbreaking up to II (50%) Piercing up to I (50%)
Hard	Power up to III (always) Unbreaking up to II (50%) Piercing up to II (50%)
Mythic	Power up to IV (always) Unbreaking up to III (55%) Piercing up to III (50%)

Is It Worth It

Its main enchantment is Power, which can reach III on Normal, III on Hard and IV on Mythic when it drops from a miniboss. If you want this piece at its strongest, Mythic is the run to farm. Since every copy is rolled, two drops from the same difficulty can still differ, so check each one against what you are already using.
