Don't pick a slot on the BUS rate alone
BUS is a small part of the income in every slot. Paramun gives 1.2 BUS per hour, which is 2,640,000 coins. But the same slot's total gross income is 25,890,000 coins per hour. So BUS is only 10% of Paramun's income.
The place where BUS has the highest share is CZ - Apostle of Cold: 20% of the hourly gross comes from BUS. That's not an advantage, it's a warning. In that slot, in the hours where no BUS drops, you're left with less.
In short, treat BUS as a bonus. Pick the slot by the sum of fixed coins, junk income and the other drops.

| Lufer - Grell | 3,700,000 | 550,000 | 15% |

Why BUS is in such demand
BUS is the main material for upgrading items at the Magic Anvil. The BUS rates are: +3 to +4 70%, +4 to +5 70%, +5 to +6 60%, +6 to +7 30%, +7 to +8 5%, +8 to +9 2%, +9 to +10 1%.
Those rates explain the BUS demand. Someone going from +7 to +8 burns 20 BUS on average. Someone going from +8 to +9 burns 50 on average. Add a 
Before you go BUS farming
- Check the level gap first. If you're 8 levels above the monster, that slot gives you no boxes at all, whatever the rate.
- Compare the slot's total gross income, not the hourly BUS count. The slot with the highest BUS share is usually not the one that earns most.
- In slots where pot cost is Very High, BUS income may not cover the cost. Our default cost is 2,971,667 coins per hour.
- Enter your own server's BUS sale price in the Farm Calculator. The 2,200,000 here is only an example price.
- Rare drops mislead over short runs. In a slot with a 0.08 rate it's normal to see no BUS in an hour, don't panic.
