Another loot complaint thread.. but hear me out. Looted 200mil past 2months..

If you have the stamina, my advice would be to move up to cryst 1-masters 3(/2) and farm there. Literally press next a couple of times and find a raidable base. Armies may cost more and take a little more time, but with the loot bonus and pressing next not so much, it adds up to a sweet deal.

SC will be fine, the vast majority of players aren't th10.

750 times? I'll give you the benefit of the doubt, but I have a hard time believing this is commonplace for ALL th10's..

You could get into a higher cups position and train a better army. You can log on and find 400/400 3 all the time after only a few nexts in masters, you just need a full on army to get it. If your logging off for a couple of hours between attacks and have a strong base in defence this should suit you well.

Nope! I have a very strong base (about 2/3 through TH10) and search for a long time regardless of where I farm. I've farmed from as low as 1500 to as high as 2800. At the low end, it's insane how long searching takes. At the high end, it takes less time to search, but I always get raided by a stronger army. If that army takes even 1 of each storage, that's 100+K of each resource, even with a terrible raid attempt. Not worth it.

Put my CC outside, you say? When I do this, I end up gradually dropping trophies back into the range where it takes 100+ searches to find a base.

Definitely! One loot bonus will pay for the searches on one or two raids... Basically start profiting from loot bonuses as well as good loot.

As Treborray stated, tons of big loot bases in crystal.

Of course you can't bring only barbs, archers and gobs and expect to get all the loot every attack.

Go higher in cups 1550 is just about the bottom of where I would farm as a Th9 holder.

I completely agree ! Now i even think twice when i get rid of my shield, these last days i've often felt like i should have never done this : you next for almost 100k just to gain that 100k back and if you're lucky enough, you'll get attacked while training your army (maybe because you're one of the few dumbasses that have no shield and full storages at 4 P.M.) and lose two times more loot. Fortunately this seems to happen most of the time in the afternoon for me, because it doesn't sound funny for a game.

Btw the fact that there could be less loot in order to force people to gem (ressources or barracks) seems quite funny to me : i used to boost barracks often in december and sometimes after, and maybe never will again since i feel like "why boost my barracks if i'm nexting 100 times and not sure to find good loot ?".

Yeah no offence but your trophy range for a TH10 is low, you really should move up like others have said. Are you a premature TH10?

[memerylane]

How exactly is the loot system causing this?

New loot system = 40-50% decrease in the available loot from most TH9-10 bases. Yes, the cap is higher, and it is possible to find more, but what is possible has not proven probable.

Most players (especially at trophy levels <2200) either don't reach that cap or put their TH outside. And above this range, as I said above, means that your base is going to get attacked and will likely lose over 100K of each resource, often more from a second or third attack if the first doesn't trigger your shield.

What ends up happening is that the bases which are viable to raid end up having half the loot that they should. This was written about several weeks ago as "the exciting new 100K vs. the old, boring 200K."

I can't tell you how many times I've seen a base that would have had 200K gold available in the previous loot system but that only had 100-120K available with the new system.

[Treborray]

Im in the same boat as you as far as 200 mil loot in the last two months.

I will admit the last 2 or 3 days loot has been a little lower for me. I have been averaging around 200-225k gold per raid this year. The last few days I dropped down to about 150k per raid. Yesterday was my worst day by far. No 300ks the entire day. Today it has picked back up though.

Overall, I feel like the look is good (not to ♥♥♥♥ anyone off). I play samurai siege and the loot there is so good it hurts the game. I am hoping that never happens to this game.
