    First off, I want to say I'm happy to see the community taking a liking new boosters on WarZ. I feel it has really increased the daily population, and has overall brought life back to WarZ. I do want to address, however, the amount of loot that is currently in circulation now due to these new boosters.

    I logged on to WarZ for a few hours yesterday to see how everything was going. When online, I noticed almost every team I came across was wearing full or almost full diamond. This is fine, but it can lead to some issues. I believe one of the main reasons people play WarZ is to get the best gear possible to fight with. With the new boosters in their current state (mainly the rare loot booster), you can accomplish this goal in almost no time at all.

    Because of this, I slightly decreased the chances of diamond armor spawning when the Rare Loot Booster is activated. Here is the change log:

    • Diamond Helmet
      • Before Nerf: 6x more common
      • After Nerf: 3x more common
    • Diamond Chestplate
      • Before Nerf: 10x more common
      • After Nerf: 5x more common
    • Diamond Leggings
      • Before Nerf: 7x more common
      • After Nerf: 4x more common
    • Diamond Boots
      • Before Nerf: 6x more common
      • After Nerf: 3x more common
    I feel this change is still a big increase in diamond chances with a Rare Loot Booster activated, just not as extreame. Please let me know how you feel about these changes.

    PLEASE NOTE:
    Nothing else in the Rare Loot Booster was changed (tier 4 guns, ammo, etc).

    I think it should be increase a slight bit so that it's in between the current and old multipliers, simply because the cost of an hour long booster is almost the same as VIP.

    I totally agree, right now this isn't a problem but in the future we don't know how this is going to hurt/affect the WarZ community. The booster is fine with a little less diamond chance because that means more time spent on looting which will make the fights more interesting. I do think though some of the amo like shotgun needs to be increased. Since the sniper amo was increased, I haven't been able to find as much shotty recently. But besides that great idea I'm all for it! :smile:

    that's irrelevant to the fact that the multipliers for the booster were OP. if you want to talk about how boosters (in your opinion) are overpriced, you can do so on a different thread.

    Well the price and the benefits are directly related. The more it costs, the better it should be, and vice versa. Therefore, because I am solely referring to the current cost of the booster in relation to its benefits it it relevant. If the price was lowered then the multiplier should be reduced, I am just commenting on how good I feel it should be with the current price, and just comparing it to VIP. I am not suggesting any modifying as far as price goes, unless others feel that it should be lowered, in which case I would create a new thread.

    for how OP it may or may not be and it's price is not directly related. what is directly related, is the length of the booster and the price.

    No, the length of the booster and the OPness of the loot you get should both correspond with the price.

    I understand that too much di
    If there's only one set multiplier then the costs between multiple boosters should only correspond to the length of the booster.

    Honestly I think the more diamond is great for fights but good that u reduced it bc too much diamond + big teams (yes I've teamed with big teams) is a bit OP especially when outnumbering. So less diamond is pretty good for the economy.

    I feel as if you're a bit wrong but also correct for the part where you stated the goal of warz being getting the best loot. After playing WarZ for quite some time i can say that most players are a lot more focused on the PvP aspect which is why having boosters being as OP as they are is actually a good thing. It allows players to become stacked and their alts which lead to bigger and enjoyable fights instead of fighting some leathers/irons.
