If anything it has got worse.
Its has been bad for me and im a TH8 farming from G1-3. I was in C3 farming loot bonuses but still no loot there also.
i farm league bonus' so my loot per hour has certainly got better. i dont think the loot in strages has got any better yet. im sure it will though. it has to or members will just upgrade faster which will mean that everyone will be th10 in no time. better bring out th11 then!
The increased bonuses are welcome, and actually quite generous.
i won't pretend to know about the mechanics behind the economy, or what SuperCell are up to behind the scenes, but loot has been utterly abysmal. i have the feeling that they have given with one hand and taken with the other.
The amount of nexting and the amount of available loot from 100's of bases at a time is nothing short of pathetic.
I am farming the league bonus now in M2 with barch, so you could say I have "adapted." Is the game more fun now that using anything besides barch is unprofitable? Definitely not. However, I am remaining optimistic that things will eventually change for the better. Eventually....
I do appreciate the league bonus increase in response to the loot problem, though. It definitely adds up.
I stay in Gold 1 - 11k isn't eough to make a difference
I agree. I don't think the elixer for walls update killed the loot, because after that update I thought loot took a dip, and then recovered. However, there was a "server update" a couple weeks after that, during which they had 1 gem 24 hour collector boosts for several days in a row. After that, loot plummeted, and has not recovered since. I have nexted for 20-30 minutes straight and see base after base with less than 50k each of gold and elixer. I run into an occasional "dead base" but these seem much less frequent than I used to see. Part of this is because I'm a new Town Hall 10, but that shouldn't affect the high number of low loot TH 9 and 10 bases I see. In fact, even if I double what I see for the TH 8 bases (because of the loot penalty), it would still be low.
I really don't get what the harm would be if you could somehow (legally) ask to sort bases in your queue by either loot, or trophy count. I've seen people say that it would take some of the challenge from the game, but the point of the game is to have fun, and nexting for 20-30 minutes (or even longer) is definitely not fun! In fact, having more loot makes me want to experiment with stronger armies and test myself against more active bases. The current system of nexting gold into thin air actually discourages this type of gameplay because everyone is afraid of running out of resources.
