List of official statments pertaining to loot post 2.0

... and I personally wouldn't put much faith in tests that go either way when MA seems to have tweaked the dial for some event or other.
Right now my 'normal' returns are being hammered in terms of straight tt at this time of TWEN tokens dropping.
Depending on my activity I can broadly increase or decrease my tokens ratio, but am also factoring in this 'crap returns' phase that is either inflicting my avatar or more than just me. How are others getting on (on a period that may last a few months even...)?

Only mindarks knows loot and that loot is dynamic and never the same

There may be some newer players joining the game or returning players, so this thread deserves a bump as it contains very useful information from the developers.

@Ferial - I believe this is important too and also belongs to the opening post:

Land Area Tax is in addition to any MA "take". Land areas simply take a cut based on the set tax amount from each loot from creatures spawned in the area or mining claims found in the area.

dont forgot about minners "again "

Great thread! Other doubts I have are regarding how shared loot works and if armored mobs like some spina affect tt returns, but if there was anything stated for sure it would have been here

I have wondered regarding shared loot and team how loot composition is determined.

Can I go all in with 0 eff and leach on everyone else? Is my chunk based on my damage, my TT input and how does my looter level play into it?

I remember a soc mate was a healer for SK and he looted a full ESI from that, just as a healer...so however you can figure that one out?

Well healing and armor is returned in loot so if you heal you will get your chunk of the loot. Items are a lottery which your soc mate apparently won.

Can be a big multiplier on his/her healing decay

No, DPP and Efficiency are not the same thing. DPP affects loot composition and critical hit/damage etc affect the DPP. Efficiency directly affects average TT return by 0-7%.

Due to the recent misinformation & confusion about what DPP does, I feel I should point out again towards this developer note, stating that DPP affects loots composition and Efficiency affects tt return and not the other way around.

Please be careful where you get your information from and do some research, especially when there is something so sensitive as tt returns.

Again, please send all your disciples and new players to read this thread while they are learning about the game so they better understand how the system works.

@Ferial please add another official statement:

To officially dispell some myths, there is nothing special/different about shared loot creatures - there is no 95% cap or anything of that sort.
