yes, as Nostrop i believe that at some moment the part of decay from all your stuff gets injected back in the loot at the place you hunt. so then its up to you whether you will get your decay back or some passer-by :). if you afraid that - hunt low decay, low-risk. if you dont - hunt risky with big armor, big guns and amps and get more fun aswell

well, first of all let me say i didn’t research this in any scientific way, but i think the same … i notice that when for example i hunt cornundacauda and feffoids near zychion citadel … i usually use axe 1x0 for them but sometimes ep40+amp for feffoid guards and if there’s a warrior from time to time.
when i hit a good looting spawn then and cycle through it a couple of times i get so-and-so much average loot from the mobs using axes … just today i noticed though that when i use the ep40+amp on all the mobs instead of axes because i get bored by how long it takes to kill everything the %age of looting mobs doesn’t seem to change but i usually get more from a loot, like 4-6 ped instead of 1-2 ped or so …
i dunno, didn’t keep any statistics or something, it’s just a general feeling i have that the decay on the stuff you use (maybe only weapons, maybe also armor) somehow effects how much average loot you get but maybe not the frequency of the looting mobs … dunno though :laugh: like i said … just a general feeling i have 
hmmm, i was just going to write what i will try next but i guess everyone can figure that out now 
lol
It cant be truth that you get better loot with better weapons or armor.Im know what im talking about! :wise:
While hunting with axes in Rascal armor i did exelent before the last VU.I was way up with peds,but got bored from the same mobs and wanted to give me some presents 
,so i bought Vigilante armor and st-98,for drones and troxies.All i have made in the Rascal and with axes,i think about peds,is gonne!!!
I spend way over 1,5k ammo,and my best loot was 11 peds!!!So,i think it doesnt have anything to do with decay,because myne is killing me:)

1,5k ammo isnt that much really =/
-and I think we’re talking a somewhat higher jump then from rascal to vigi
However we noticed a little jump in loots ourself after we bought the adj v1. We we quite sure it was a blessed one!
I myself do not play for good loots, thats a bonus
I play to, well, have fun
my theory on looting: if you are meant to get a good loot, you will get it. if you dont get a good loot, then you arent supposed to have it yet
like someone said in another thread… dont hunt to global or hof… just hunt and dont think about loots. thats usually when i profit, even without globals or hofs might just be a coincidence though :dunno:

Well,everybody jumps as much as he can
1,5 k is very much for me,i could hunt for a year with axes for that money,and now i dont have a reason to buy me even better stuff,i will lose more :eek:
my theory will always be that its deposit related.
I was hunting baby snables for a couple of days with 1x0 axes and the average loot has been pecs - anything between 2 and 50, some hair gel here and there and skins/wool.
I did however deposit $10 yesterday and the second snable i killed I looted 20 peds + a tt pistol.
No armor/no fap
Cant really be wanda - as I’m depping more and more lately I still can’t find anything - a friend of mine who s been playing for a week or two already got a 600PED hof without depping anything. So it’s just up to luck.
Moral of the story - the more peds you loot, the more peds you waste :wise:
I hide my loot window nowadays and just kill for the fu(n)(ck) of it all - I just check when I get back in town if I made it breakeven

i never deposited, but i have had my share of globals
system = random, dont think there’s any “logic” behind it tbh :twocents:

I think there is some logic behind it(not much). I think you need to spend a few peds to get a few back. I don’t think it’s possible to hit a global these days without spending at least 50ped. You can get 2000ped but i think it still requiers 50ped ammo/fap/armor decay.

i never meant that you only hof/global when you deposit - I meant it helps towards it if you deposit.
i guess deposit help u to get big loot`s.. in my opinion…
i deposited once ..and then bought a katsuikhi … i killed a molisk young ..the first mob i saw ..after i bought the sword ..and ..bannnng 28 ped and a heal chip… after that … i went for an feffoid bandit…(before depositing and buying the sword … only a few pec loot) and another bannnnnng … 12 ped .
i guess the rate of succes increases as u deposit.

It’s a computer program… there is no such thing as a true random system in a computerised environment…
You can make it appear to be random. (pseudo random)… but there is logic to it.. always :wise:

Quite a good remark Ultimababe, indeed softwares and computers are logical ‘creatures’. Even the ‘random’ function in excel spreadsheet is ‘logical’.

Well after studying statisicail mathematics for more years than I care to admit, I learnt one thing and one thing only… There is no such thing as truely random. The organic mind is more prone to subcoincious pattern making than a computer, however a computer uses calculations to make its random numbers therefore patterns will always arise.
slightly of topic but, To prove this theory we had to do random number cycles, numbers from 0-9. One person actually quoted his entire phonebook. Its HHGTTG all over again! Where telephone numbers are universally important and guide far more events than we will ever know.
It may just be me, but I seem to notice 3 or 4 globals/hofs always appear grouped together.
I think the HHGTTG principle of the universe applies here too…
As soon as anyone fully understands the loot system it will disappear and instantly be replaced with something infinity more complex and confusing.

Not that it helps much, though
