The tubbies have also 2 main pools :
- one containing legendaries (Pool_ChubbieUniques) with a 100% drop rate
- one containing the 12 pearlescent weapons (Pool_Lobelia_Pearlescent_Weapons_All) with a variable drop rate
The first pool contains :
- 4 legendary / unique items (WTF, Bunny and CrackedSash), with a 100 weight
- a customization item, with a 100 weight
- all the non vanilla legendary class mods (Pool_ClassMod_Lobelia_All) with a 1600 weight.
So there's 76% chance to get one of the class mod and 5% to get one of the other item.
The second pool is interesting because the drop rate associated (Weight_Lobelia_Pearlescent_Tubbies) depends on the op level :
- op0 and below : 1.00%
- op1 : 1.49%
- op2 : 2.17%
- op3 : 3.12%
- op4 : 4.54%
- op5 : 6.66%
- op6 : 9.09%
- op7 : 14.28%
- op8 : 20.00%
Some of the items (class mods and pearls) have minimum level requirements.

Regarding tubbies, the spawn system used is again fairly similar to the one used for loot. At each spawn point, one or several draws from a weighted pool of enemy are realized. As the pools are potentially defined on each map, i only checked a handful of them, but the results seemed fairly constant.
The most noticeable point is that, contrary to my belief, having multiple players does not increase the tubbies spawn chances. In fact, only badasses get increased spawn chances in this case, and, as the tubbies are not in the badass pool, their spawn chances are sligthly decreased. As usual, i may have make calculation mistakes or overlooked some hidden mechanics ...
The spawn chances i computed for signle player in uvhm are :
- on The Dust :
- Spiderants (PopDef_SpiderantMix_Interlude) : 0.7% ie around 1 tubby per 140 spawns
- on Frostburn :
- Spiderants (PopDef_SpiderantMix_IceCanyon) : 0.6% ie around 1 tubby per 160 spawns
- on Arid Nexus Badlands and Boneyard :
- Skags (PopDef_SkagMix_Regular) : 0.5% ie around 1 tubby per 200 spawns
- on Wildlife :
- Rakks (PopDef_RakkMix_Regular) : 0.2% ie around 1 tubby per 500 spawns
- Skags (PopDef_SkagMix_PandoraPark) : 0.5% ie around 1 tubby per 200 spawns
- Stalkers (PopDef_StalkerMix_*) : 0.5% ie around 1 tubby per 200 spawns
- on Unassuming Docks :
- Bones (PopDef_SkeletonsDen_Docks) : 0.5% ie around 1 tubby per 200 spawns
