Did they nerf GH/OOS again?

  • Last week when they buffed higher level GH and OOS voyages, I was getting a bunch of great loot. I was relieved because I honestly hate fort hopping. Im 45+ in everything, and last week, I was getting on average 1 captains chest/cursed to every 2 marauders, 1 villy to every 2 hateful and so on. Now it feels like they nerfed it? I just dug up 18 chests and only 2 captains, everything else was maraders. I did OOS last night and got 5 villys over about 25 total skulls.. Has anyone else noticed this or am I just hated by the RNG gods?

  • I'm with you, it feels nerfed.

  • @poppasquids

    Patch notes 1.07 do state -

    Strike Gold - As Pirates rank up with all the trading companies, the chances of finding more valuable rewards has been increased. Say good-bye to those Castaway Chests at higher ranks!

    I wonder if this is not working as intended..

    i feel like its most definitely not. I was in loot heaven last week, and now its dropped. it IS still better than it was before, i havent seen a seafarers or castaway in forever, but its like 80% marauders now.. i was getting a cursed chest like every other island before.

    It was great because I thought fort hopping would be dead. But it seems as if I may have to go back to that for my last few levels :(

  • @poppasquids I'll query this for you, and see if it's still in effect.

  • @katttruewalker Thanks!

  • Was thinking that the last days too...before 1.0.8 it was like every second chest was a captains...now, one or maybe two out of ten...yes it's still better than before 1.0.7 but still less then last week

  • Don't think so, was doing GH 45's last night and on one (very long) mission got 3 chest of grogs 10 or so Mauraders and a dozen captians so probably just bad RNG for you?
