Decent Midrange Loot or other solutions...

[JohnnyR]

We've got the regular loot page, the uber high end loot page, now I think we need a "decent" loot thread.

Basically what I'm gunning for is anything with an attack of 11 or higher and I don't really fancy transitioning b/w losing Snipers/Warthogs at $10k-$24k a pop to Commandos at $85k a pop. Seals might have to substitute if I can upgrade my Infantry boost enough, but that'll be tough.

Reason I need a "decent" loot item that drops relatively regularly (50% or better) is so that I can phase in Stealth Hawk Drones, which have an attack of 8 (unfortunately enhanced by possibly 30% due to boosts) and need units to keep these out of my attack group.

Anybody have a better way of preventing SHDs from entering battle?

Buy some demolitions for 200k a pop increases your strength and great lopsided unit

lol, bigflan-if I don't want to spend $85k, what makes you think I wanna spend $200k???

i'm going for demolitions - i know this thread is about midrange loot, but in the long run, you'll need demolitions as prerequisite units for the bosses that give out the mega loots.

armored chargers are decent loot, i think it was 12/14 and its given pretty frequently last i tried - hu metropolis, cargo crane 205 energy. the unit requirement went up since last time i did it, you'll need commandos and global hawks.

unit prerequisites always go up, not down, so in the long run, investing in units like demolitions, even if you won't take them into pvp, will be necessary. flan may not think, but his point is still valid.

Exactly the sort of info I was hoping for, thanks a lot for coming through Ghost.

I was having the same problem yesterday. I went through my units in a spreadsheet that are brought into attack as I was losing SS drones (8/30). I don't know if these are the ones you're talking about, but I managed to push them out of attack by adding Submarines (10/8) and only 66k a pop.

I just started using / tring out mobile tactical units as my attack meat shield. They aren't to pricey but not the cheapest either. 110k with 11-11 stats. I did try them when they first came out. The casualty rate is a medium but atleast they seem to last longer then infantry but still die before most of my higher end units did. Anyway. Just a thought. For me they seem cheap but I guess others could see them as more expensive.

I have 95 or so stealth drones and do not take them into battle anymore. My lowest attack unit used in battle is at 9a

Well, the armored charger has aboit a 20% drop rate or less, which would be fine if it didn't kill 2-3 GHDs per charger that it drops...

Any other relatively stable, midrange loots guys?

Hey why not try farming the desert leader

There is a thread dedicated to this unit but try the venal fighter carribean straits. No units required to do the tugboat mission, it costs 245E, drops 54-84k a hit, and the unit has 39A/24D

well the problem with that is that Caribbean Straits requires you to be pretty high level to access. I think what johnny is looking for is something more accessible.

btw, i got a PM within 5 mins of my last post from some guy asking me seriously where this 'uber loot' is.

*sigh*
