In the past Hadraada was my emergency mob. With last 10-20 ped I made any bet to global or get 90 - 110% return. Since 1-2 weeks I get totally nothing. Also silent globals r totally gone, same for 5ped around packages, what was standard in the past. At the moment I do up to ten 100-200 ped runs with out a single global and without silent ones, no 5pedder - nothing. I come back with 30-60% return. The weird thing: It's constant. In the past there was something comin back after 10 bad runs. It's only me?
I know I'm new to Ark, but have had better luck here the past month than I did on Caly in the past year. Remember that the game is really dynamic and like anything with randomness, you're going to have anomalies both good and bad. I did 75 of the high maturity hadraada yesterday, had no swirlies but did loot an ESI (silent global, and my first ESI evah!! lol). In that same time period, my soc mate globaled 2-3 times on lower maturity hadraada. I then hit up Kadra, knocked out a few hundred and had a single 50 ped global. Switched to Togolossi and hit for 3 swirlies within 50-60 kills, one for 260 ped or so.. My point is vary up your routine. Switch mobs, or switch up what you're doing. If you have no luck hunting, then try mining or crafting a bit. Also remember you are gaining value in other ways, with skill gains and mission rewards. Use Entropia Tracker a bit to check what mobs are currently being hunted the most and are somewhat hot. Or just learn for yourself during a hunt, I normally get a pretty good feel within the first 20-30 kills or so what the loot is like on those creatures for that day and time.
Nah... we speak about loot over 2 years, I've 3 Hadraada Figurines... It's NOTHING compared to the last 2 weeks...
It goes in cycles.. and there is less being cycled in the pool as a whole due to post migration. It should be expected and you should adjust accordingly.
I have been playing this game for 6 months, and I used to TT carabok hides for ammo, the hunt back there used to pay itself, barelly pays the decay. Yeah, loot shrunk for like 80% or more, L4 halix used to give me 1 wool for each 10 kill, now I would be lucky if each one give at least 1 muscle oil.
Yep, maybe return was lowered. But its not a problem - all will be returned back. When I do a crafting jobs, I seen that cycles are changed, but average return is similar as always, maybe slightly less.
