I agree. Bring Back weapons as loot.

I'm part of a small guild so my sample size is admittedly small but we've lost several newish members who basically stalled out after weapon loot was removed.

Its still possible to level, sure, but the smallest mistakes cost you a week or months production, especially if you are talking crossbows or cannons. Back when I leveled a year or two ago, I was pretty self-sufficient up through level 40-45, then I started using the TO more heavily. I can't imagine redo-ing all that now with the current loot drops.

Edit: And yes you can get help from your guild, but who really wants to play a game leveling on handouts?

I am level 44 and I lost 380 elites to known game issues with the generals and I quit playing this game for most purposes because the cost of and time involved in making damascene swords isn't worth it. It is really stupid to remove weapons from adventure loot but not increase the speed of creating weapons or increase the availablity of materials used in making weapons. The whole thing was balanced around weapons being available from loot and the game is just broken now.

I am sure a lot of people who have been 50 for a long time and have huge stockpiles of these weapons gained FROM adventure loot for the most just love this since they can sell these weapons for huge prices now, but it isn't fair to people newer to the game.

I agree put the weapons back in loot.

I am level 50, and have no huge stockpile. What I did have is mostly gone now, since they are not being replenished. I absolutely refuse to rebuild an economy that I've been working on for almost three years.

It makes zero sense for me to lose hundreds of troops (and weapons) on an adventure for worthless junk, (i.e. fish depos, pinewood planks, coal, settlers??).

The loot change knocked all the wind out of this game for me.
Don't expect me to spend any more money on gems for a game that gives me nothing in return.

Perhaps a tweak here and there vs. rebuilding everything might help?

Due to the increasingly incredible expense of the supreme weapons, now whenever I lose any Cannons, I steadfastly refuse to ever play the map again. For example, I had a lag block screw up in Bandit Nest that resulted in 27 Cannon loss. That ruined the map forever for me. For now on, they are being traded for Horseback.

yes please return weapons to the adv loot it has been a seriouse hardship since u have removed them from the advs rewards

They should remove horses from loot as well.
