Loot Problem (with data)

Who else is experiencing a substantial drop in available loot from raids?

I used to really like this game. However, now it sometimes feels more like a chore to play. I decided I would gather a little data and see how bad it really is. The data I have now is from 150 bases I either "nexted" or attacked.

This is just very little data, but I will continue to track this for a while. This little data I have gathered now does show that the loot seems bad.

My greatest concerns for the bad loot are the following:

1. The game becomes impossible for casual gamer -> 30+ next clicks is too many to quickly raid and play casual
2. Bad loot will decrease player base in general

I will update this thread soon. In the next update I will separate three data entries:
1. Total run stats combined - DONE
2. Current run stats - DONE
3. Former run stats - DONE

I am thinking of working towards a total of 1.000 bases.

CURRENT RUN 17-3-2014 17.30
From those 50 bases there were:

1. 1 bases with both gold and elixer above 200k
2. 2 bases with gold above 200k
3. 4 bases with elixer above 200k
4. 4 bases with both gold and elixer above 100k
5. 5 bases with gold above 100k
6. 14 bases with elixer above 100k
7. Only 2 bases with over 1k dark elixer
8. Average gold per base is 60k
   
9. Average elixer per bases is 84k
10. Average dark elixer per bases is 322

From those 4 bases with both gold and elixer above 100k I got to attack 2, the other were too well defended. In those raids I got about 265k of gold, 239k of elixer and 0 dark elixer.

My stats while attacking:

• Town Hall 9
• 1.715 trophies
• Time: 17.30 Amsterdam time
• Day: 17-3-2014 Monday

FORMER RUN 16-3-2014 23.00
From those 50 bases there were:

1. 1 base with both gold and elixer above 200k -> TH 10, unbreakable for my barch, all in storages
2. 3 bases with gold above 200k
3. 3 bases with elixer above 200k
4. 2 bases with both gold and elixer above 100k
5. 7 bases with gold above 100k
6. 15 bases with elixer above 100k
7. Only 2 bases with over 1k dark elixer
8. Average gold per base is 68k
   
9. Average elixer per bases is 86k
10. Average dark elixer per bases is 285

Attacked 2 bases:
1st base I got 245k gold and 179k elixer, second base I got 86k gold and 65k elixer. Both simple collector runs.

Loot was better this run, not much but it certainly was better.

My stats while attacking:

• Town Hall 9
• 1.619 trophies
• Time: 23.00 Amsterdam time
• Day: Sunday 16-3-2014

TOTAL RUNS (150 BASES)
From those 150 bases there were:

1. 2 base with both gold and elixer above 200k -> TH 10, unbreakable for my barch, all in storages
2. 5 bases with gold above 200k
3. 7 bases with elixer above 200k
4. 8 bases with both gold and elixer above 100k
5. 16 bases with gold above 100k
6. 40 bases with elixer above 100k
7. Only 5 bases with over 1k dark elixer
8. Average gold per base is 59k
9. Average elixer per bases is 80k
10. Average dark elixer per bases is 275

Nice thread, this is really interesting.

I see it as... loot comes and goes..

I have no issues finding 200+/200+ loot within 20 searches in Gold trophy level.

I farm 1200-1800.. someones bases come within 5 searches.. some 30.. it all averages to about 15-20 searches.. which is normal imo

I know this is just another loot is bad thread,but Ill tell my story anyway ,Im farming in crystal3 this morning and I got 1.7 mill gold,1.4 mill elixir, 3400 DE in 2 hrs with barrack,spell factory and heros boosted.
Biggest score was a abandoned base with 395,000 gold, i suggest changing your range and find the loot, its there somewhere :)

It would be good to do this every day at the same time if possible.

It's a fact that weekends are the most active, and guess what, everyone wants the easy bases with plenty of loot :)

Hopefully during the week you'll see less competition for the juicy bases.

I never farm on a Sunday now. Too much torture.

building on what stich said it would be cool to track the day and hour of your searches as well as the trophy range. all those things seem to play a very important factor in available loot.

There is loot in Crystal 3, but you need a powerful army, like Balloonians or Hogs.

I think offering bases with 1K gold and 1k elixir is just insulting...

Bases with less than 60k should be deleted from the queue.

i have noticed that there is a dry time around 12am EST

I am at the same trophy range as you and am experiencing great loot, although I am a bit higher.
