Yeah I have to swallow my words now.
Spoke too soon lols. Never give up.
Spoke too soon, or received a response from the ever watchful eyes?

February 2020 = -5,005 hunting (96.99% tt)
Hofs faded, the optimism starts to fade as well
Well and that's it, the hofs and the optimism is gone. Whatever it was, it is over - changing the signature back.
It was good while it lasted.
March 2020 = -9,449 hunting (96.47% tt)
Im a little confused by your results tbh, we have similar setups but you have a lot more skills than me yet im cosnistently 98%+ tt return (no 1kx multi maybe 2-3 500x max)and then + after mu, i guess it could be loot events (definately needs 10k+ to get steady) but i seen you hunting stuff like cats on RT so idk if its even that and youve been around long enough that i assume you know how to track (no converting shrap and stuff) and you have access to higher average mu mobs than me with your skills so I really am at a loss.
Loot is dynamic....errr I mean a slot machine. The longer you are at the slots the more you lose especially if no big payout. You could have 100 looter and 100 efficiency and that won't help in a dynamic system as you could still get 95%....I am sure you are aware of that though. This game isn't set up for grinding long hours as that will only lower TT %. It's just about timing loot waves and don't hunt rest of time and if you do think loot is phat use a really low eff % to get a bigger HOF.
In a way the looter and efficiency is an illusion to trap you into believing that if you have it you can get more loot signals and do better. However that isn't the case as long as loot returned is based on damage done. We need to move back to a DPP system or some hybrid form of it. More loot signals doesn't mean better returns when you finally get to a mob where it has a multiplier and you crit it 3 times blowing your only chance to get loot back ruining a bigger HOF. (probably happens a lot in Uber set ups)
A noob with a low efficiency weapons who hunts randomly for loot waves has a better chance at profits than a seasoned veteran. That is just the facts. Crit gear and efficiency gives you lower chances at stabilizing TT returns, when you need RNG gods to have you get PED into the right mob with the multiplier.
Honestly if you have a massive PED card Id like to see someone like Smilgs use way lower efficiency items drop his crit gear and try to pump mobs full of PED to get that nice 5 digit HOF.
Guess we can argue Dpp for ESI and loot composition but well Loot 2.0 is a disaster right now and everyone knows it. Especially if no big ESI or Uber Rare loots come for that really expensive investment for gear.
Appreciate the detailed log and your dedication but when Smilgs gets 96% I say okay well guess we should wait for Loot 3.0. Until we can have a system where we go back to having gear and skills matter for loot %.
I logged in killed a few mobs got a global logged out. That is my profit today, might sweat latter or harvest. This is the only way I see you are able to play now. Poke at loot searching for swirls and log. Then let deeds do their work.
Best of luck to all

I couldn't help but notice the staunch irony in this odd statement considering your angst against what is fundamentally the same thing in your other popular thread.

I can only say what was said before in the thread. My times of getting 98% or so tt return correlate very well with getting a bigger hof that month. 96% or less is just how it goes without those.Either that or Smilgs needs to audit his grinders, because I think they've been skimming him for years.
As for "famous streamers" saying this or that, interesting how/where they get their info suppose same place that mr trump pulls it from? From my side it seems that
* I personally know them since ages and trust them with my whole set of items and avatar also since ages
* It would be extremely silly for them (having main part of the income coming from this activity) to try to lower my income when I have been losing losing and constantly considering to shut it down
* I would notice a difference in tt return vs. the globals, it is very easy to spot and I am still doing my runs so can compare.
* Any trades / dropped loot can be verified with support

My results tell me that there are a lot of smaller hp mobs that I did hunt quite a lot and the tt return was rather crap (meaning 95-96).Your choise of mob is preventing to get the correct return in that short period of time. To be able to get viable return rate, you need to kill at least 100k mobs.

With ~150 dps, you need 2000+ (nonstop shooting) hours for 100k big bulk gen10 kills. Add breaks, targeting, etc, etc. You need shitloads of months to get 98%+ (or whatever is your rate)
For mulcibers... it's 5 times more and you need years
Try it out with the mobs you can actually kill at least 100k within one month period for more accurate statistics
pretty decent tt return, armor perhaps?
the UL weapon tier progression is however just nerfed still
June 2020 = -1,649 hunting (98.56% tt)
May 2020 = -4,902 hunting (97.60% tt)
Whats the MU aprox u at?
around 0 for these months unless attributes are considered as MU
Migration, well, nothing fancy, tt return is back to being sad
July 2020 = -11,719 hunting (95.53% tt)
$1,172 for some entertainment. How much of that was real deposit in the month?
Not at all. Smilgs is not interested in MU, he's only after attributes/skills. Which is fine, but that has a major impact on the end of month results. TT is a bit too low but not unexpected.Mmmmm Good indication though of the costs others in the top 20 hunters probably paid.
please tell me where u can get so much mu to cover $1,172/month ??? + he is using one of the best gear in game + skillsNot at all. Smilgs is not interested in MU, he's only after attributes/skills.

Pretty much. And the losses are because choice. If good choice had been made, profit could've been 300k ped maybe, with those skills, tools and turnover.If you take 1 bad month out from the whole picture, yes, uh, -11k ped, loose my mind.
Loot 2.0 since 2017 July, total since that date is minus ~8000 ped, like 200 ped / month.
I mean, since the loss for that month (11 719 ped) equals a 95.53% return it means he turned over 262k ped that month and got 250k ped back. Which means he would need a 104.8% average markup in loot to cover the TT loss. It's not a ridiculously high number, really, and there are mobs who has this. But you are obviously not gonna get that if the focus is finishing various missions for skills and attributes.please tell me where u can get so much mu to cover $1,172/month ??? + he is using one of the best gear in game + skills
I took a look at the public spreadsheet smilgs has and by the looks of it, even with ignored MU, Smilgs is in (a tiny) profit for 2020.please tell me where u can get so much mu to cover $1,172/month ??? + he is using one of the best gear in game + skills
