    Hey,
    I was just wondering if anyone has an explanation for the loot oddities that I noticed during the oratan competition:

    except for cat 1, the biggest loots seem to be smallest for the high categories, and high for the low categories. What's up with that?

    cat1: 92 ped
    cat2: 5597 ped (and my socmate got a 2,5k hof as well)
    cat3: 1531
    cat4: 1401
    cat5: 804
    cat6: 2409

    As you can see, the lower categories have the biggest loot. cat 2 got at least 2 loots that are bigger than any of the other categories. That's just weird imo...

    What do YOU think about it?

    ctg 2 big hofs might be explained to some extent by the presence of oro mob in that ctg - for which there's the only ark huntin mission atm - therefore might be similar to caly's low level mobs : many huntin them, a few lucky ones scoring nice hofs

    What puzzles me is ctg 4, where huon mob is ... a mob that gave ATH in the first month from launch, that has high HP and low dmg (at least at low levels) and can be seen as a kind of levi for ark, by far the most hunted mid lvl mob of ark ... delivering bellow 1K highest loot in past week with tracker showin hypes of ~200 globs/day ?? ... maybe a big huon is lurking outhere, waitin for the lucky one to hit him ;)

    Don't look so surprised, it's a competition, the company wants everyone to be happy, therefore, there will be more hofs during a competition, where they fell was probably a random thing. That's my opinion, there will be others of course, but I'm a pessimist.

    When I saw the title, I thought OMG, someone found some gold thimble or something from the coming treasure hunting system! You got me there, I can say that..lol.
