Is anyone else noticing loot is worth less these days? Captains chests that used to be 1300+ are now only 800-1000, even cashed in a chest of sorrows and only got 1000 instead of like 1500. Seems to have only affected chests and not skulls.

i honestly wouldn't be surprised if it was done and not mentioned to slow players down. to buy them time. i am lvl 49 with the gold hoarders i did a voyage tonight, 1 chest on wanderers refuge pulled it up seafarers that was the whole quest :/. not to mention the 3 waves of skeletons i had to kill to dig it up haha , if i could put that chest back in the ground i would have. we should be getting rep for order of the souls with the amount of skeletons we have to kill 40+missions

@mad-g4m3r theres a mapp online that shows you what islands have the animals it helps
I've seen this but it's wrong. The animals on each island are random each time.
@afro-silent
Still you need to go online and search. Also animal variations appear randomly so you still need to visit multiple island to gather animals from higher level voyages. Another thing is that GH voyage is completed after finding all treasures not delivering them.Doing level 25 quests for souls at the moment (what their 50 rank ship customs) but all my voyages seem to just be reward disgraced skulls at best which then you trade in four from three different islands for less then 1000 gold and a droplet on the renown wheel feels like they're making the grind longer by strangling the player's reward. I got way more captain's chests before hitting 25 then I do now.

They certainly are not wrong. The map is accurate. Sometimes they will not spawn. Only random element there.

Wrong!
@mad-g4m3r what the.. you missed my point friend, i said 1 of my high level gh missions was 1 chest 1 island 45+ gh mission 1 island 1 chest, SEAFARERS !!! why is that even a thing i had to kill 5-7 skeletons for that c**p chest. why.... and i am well aware you have to complete the whole voyage i dont think you read my post ? haah
and the map works for me so never had an issue just do skull forts and shipwrecks problem solved.
@peteloaf777 you have wrong info, every island i go to based of the map i use its 100 percent accurate every time

Actually, yea it does. Thanks
@mad-g4m3r you can also have your crew wipe and wait in ferry for everything there to respawn island, chests on it, and barrles on it.
@peteloaf777 you are incorrect, islands have a chance to spawn 1-2 types of animals and they are the same every single time. If they didn't spawn you can respawn them.

I've seen this but it's wrong. The animals on each island are random each time.
Meanwhile, at level 40 Merchants, I'm still using them and they never fail me. Sometimes animals simply just don't spawn on an island, but they don't really change what spawns where.
Not only have I noticed decreased value for chests but also a decreased spawn rate of captains and mauraders chests from voyages. I've gotten a lot more sea farers and castaways. I suspect it's to slow the player base from reaching legendary while they rush to create and implement the content for it

I ran into issues using the map more often than it is accurate. One island was supposed to have snakes only and we found pigs, another was supposed to have pigs/chickens and it had non.
My crew and I sometimes just end up sailing out of our way to the chicken isle or snake island then just check out beaches for pigs on our way to the outpost. More time consuming but when we have someone on sails, it can go pretty quick.
Also, I noticed that gold or black animals don't sell for as much as they used to as well.
