    Key Cost: 6480

    Net Result with Key Cost: -4730.77
    Return Pct: 86.31%

    Net Result without Key Cost: 1749.23
    Return Pct: 105.06%

    1 Key Eaten (Aakas 10) on 12/13/2015 - Reimbursed on 1/9/15

    38 Key Runs

    Variants: Shrapnel was often converted during and after the run for an additional (theoretical 0.1-0.99% return gain)

    Comparison with old system: http://arkadiaforum.com/threads/the-road-travelled-to-get-an-la-raw-data.10332/

    My Observations:

    * Keys 1, 2, 3, 4, 7 are all ped traps. It is next to impossible to get good returns because the mobs are out of balance with the admission cost (the key)
    * You do not get the key back in your loot in any way.
    * Dehera attackers and small defenders can loot any of the golden key parts of gears, bearings, cogs, and power sources.
    * Magurg females drop armor and higher golden keys but now are rarer than they were in the old system. Could be out of balance.
    * Magurg pincers drop from Aakas defenders (Loot pool problem)
    * Arkoins drop from Magurg Females, Defenders

    Did you kill all the mobs or the minimum, or somewhere in between?

    Always killed all as it is advantageous to do so.
