Question: Loot and mobs

[CozMoDan]

I have 3 questions:
1. When a mob spawns does he come with loot or does he attain loot as he lives or neither? I kind of think he comes with loot or loot potencial and then the wheel spins when one kills him or maybe it is the player that has the loot potencial each time he/she kills a mob.

2. Will two different players at different lvls get the same loot from the same mob or will one get less because of his/her lvl or neither ?

3. Do people that deposit more get more loot/gbls/HOTs/ATHs ?

To me question 1 and 2 are related in, if the mob has loot when he spawns and in fact different lvls get more or less loot then is there a lvl factor in the amount of loot or for that matter if the mob gets heaver as he gets older the same factoring could apply.

Opinons are welcome here, let me know what you think.
TIA

1. we are currently debating that issue.
2. most say that loot is random within each mob
3. no one knows for sure. most say no.

I can only answer #1 at this point. The mobs have loot when they spawn. I have had a couple of times when I had a mob spawned right next to me and when I killed them I got Globals. Maybe it does build over time, and maybe if I had waited a while before shooting them I'd have gotten more, but they definately can start with at least 50ped+ of loot.

I dunno about question 1 and 2. But to question 3 I dont think depo or no depo helps or hurts loot much. I have friends and a soc mate that have no depo and have looted better than me , and I am a depositor LoL.

I believe no one has the answers to these questions aside from MA. We all have our own theories or subscribe to others' theories, but nothing can be proven with rock-solid evidence. This is all thanks to MA's inability (and I understand why) to explain the inner-workings of the universe.

Snuggins, I know this is going to come off as an attack on you, but I honestly don't mean it in that way.

Why the hell do people insist on making it seem as though MA should disclose all the information about how this universe works? Why can't they understand that it really isn't a choice? If MA were to tell us exactly how the loot worked, wtf do you think will happen?! Everyone would have the exact information on draining the loot pool! That's what!

[/end rant]

In summary, I don't believe it to be an unwillingness to disclose that information. I believe it to be an inability.

Good Questions and I'm gonna watch the results...

EU: Is dynamic - based upon how dynamic you act yourself.

well said, if we all knew how to loot very very well, MA would be broke and we wouldn't have EU to enjoy.
