I'm working on trying to figure out if available loot is indeed 20% of max, and 2 Million would put the max you can hold at over 10 Million. Is there anyone on here who has max storages? The most expensive building so far is the Mystic Mortar at 2.5 Million so maybe the upgrades for that and the final PH could be around the 8 Million range? If the math doesn't work out then there only other option would be a PH penalty.
So far I'm thinking there is a PH equation to loot. Every time I've upgrded the loot in the previous group seems to shrink.
The max storage is 7,501,500 with 3 level 10 storage's. PH 7 cost 4 mil gold. Mystic mortar does not upgrade. Hope that helps.
So I read in another thread, that Midoki Chris said there is NOT a variable between PIRATE HALL levels and loot. So what you see is what's there.
This past week - a couple different times - I got 1.6M total for raids. Actually, I think both were 1M gold and 600K grog. I stay between PR 400 and 600. My best looting is at around 500 but that's just where I am, most of the time. That is an amazing Attack Log snap, Fakebeard has, up there.
