Ok. So are you suggesting that people spending 180k is resulting in a substantial loot reduction? If so, that supports my argument not yours.
If you're suggesting that the other changes (CC, and Tesla upgrades) are doing it, I suppose that is possible. However why would those things prompt huge gold expenditures outside of the norm? Unless most of the targets were already maxed (not the case), they have tons of stuff to spend gold on already.
Furthermore why would those things affect TH8 loots?




) Just don't get the gemming thing at all.
