Just curious, how many silvers are people netting per 15 minute hunt? And if you're okay saying it, where do you hunt? How much of a difference do you see with a minor or major loot boost?

I haven't really played with the loot boosts much, but I am curious if anyone knows if its own static increase or based on existing hunting pressure tables. Hunting pressure is definitely a useful metric you'll want to consider in addition to your compilation of silvers per 15 minutes based on <creature> and <area>. You could go to the same area and kill the same things as someone posts multiple times and get multiple results based on that dynamic alone.

Currently, I'm just coasting on druids in red forest. I don't have a silvers per hour for you but I've been back a few days and I'm up about 3 million. The zone I'm at in particular is nice because the warriors bark from skinning doesn't get picked up by the current ;sloot script so I just made a little script to pick the money up off the ground.

Wow 3 million in a few days seems like a lot. If you don't mind me asking how many hunts would this include?

Haha well admittedly, I have been on quite a bit since I've been back. Although my hunts per day might be higher at the moment, in contrast to the rest of my hunting:treasure ratio throughout my time playing I would say it is really picking up. One of the factors that I think are at play, and are certainly more apparent within the hunting paradigm itself is that I am entering into the later stages of the game in terms of the hunting areas and the difficulty of hunting in general and treasure is starting to pick up. Diamonds and emeralds are dropping at a very high frequency and there are multiple boxes per hunt.

I'm sure some capped people can confirm/deny but I would imagine as you get into the 85+ zones you would see an increase in profit per hunt. I just happen to be on that fence at the moment so I'm not sure if it is what I can expect in the future or just anecdotal evidence.

Depends if you have a picker or not. I find I'm around 30-60k a hunt. (after shind) If I don't use that thief It can hit 100k. (this is approximately 20-25 boxes)

My general feeling about the minor boost is meh but no complaints, however I did get a vultite blade drop which may or may not be connected.

For the major boost I make sure I have locker space handy to unload boxes halfway through the hunt.

:D

With major Loot boost I can pull in about 100k-150k per hunt.

I use the loot boosts whenever I have a gem bounty. I am thankful I have phase and a 1000 pound sack when I do it.
