1 hour haunting vs 4 hour haunting!!!

  1. So i was just wondering what would help a build like mines all guild with 2 titans lair. 1 Hour haunting or 5 hour haunting?

    I noticed in a 1 hour haunting i make about 1.5bill total plunder. In a 4 hour haunting i make 5.5bill.

    Which should i stick to?
     
  2. Calculate and find gold per hour and go with that.
     
  3. Time makes no difference unless you get items often

    It only matters for clan as a whole,
     
  4. It's pretty much the same thing. You get the same hits in for both long and short hauntings
     
  5. I make the same amount every unload in haunting, so it makes no difference. I'd assume you do as well.
     
  6. I make more on slower hauntings - better chance of spamming items when nobody else is on.

    I still post a warning when items are approching though.

    But Schsmi, is correct, the only thing that matters is gold per hour.
     
  7. Well for me I make like around on haunting per hr 750m and off that if one unload no
    Items am extra 500m so on a big osf or a big player with pots make like 67m or less and like 1.3b

    I'm questing that longer hauntings pay better with more actions and a chance of the items phase
     
  8. Why would you do quests while doing the haunting?
     
  9. Sub 1 hour hauntings are the best hourly income you can make.
     
  10. U gain 0.5b more if u do 1 hrs haunting. But u can't miss items and it go quick on these EB. Not a big difference.
     
  11. Technically if you do 1 hour haunts u still have to wait 15mins in between hauntings so the four hour seems the better option
     
  12. Shorter item stage, less opportunity to exploit it. Also, assuming you start w full troops you get TWO unloads in 1 hr versus FIVE in 4 hrs. So it definitely the item stage (or you would make more plunder on shorter hauntings)
     
  13. Let's do the math shall we?
    1 hr= 1.5
    4 hr= 5.5

    1.5 x 4 = 6.0 Therefore it would be best for you to do 1hr hauntings
     
  14. 1hr hauntings= 3x(1hr 15min)= 4.5bil and 3hr 45min
    4hr haunting= 5.5bil...
    I think it's quite clear which ones better... This is assuming that the number of pots used in both cases are equal... That is normally not the case... Plus the additional 15min should be enough to unload again and hit another pot phase... But that shouldn't be enough for 1bil, considering your earnings stated above...
     
  15. lol, obviously the faster the eb the better. if you do a 4 hour haunting, u only get 2 pot windows. if you do 1 hour haunting 4 times u get 8 times pot windows. assuming you unload each hour, u get 6 times extra pot chances. which is better?
     
  16. I can pull big items in longer hauntings, plus for psyche it feels like I make a lot more in longer hauntings. I try to avoid clans that pop them out every hour or so.

    Items are MINE!
     
  17. my personal experience is more about from 1,5 hr till 3,5 hr hauntings...

    my opinion is that difference is not that big. in theory, you gain more with shorter EB's because bonus is given in shorter time. in practice, shorter haunting means less item hits, so personal bonus is smaller

    in the end, i'd say that it is all just very similar, and that it is almost completely the same. earnings are more dependant by chance on actual eb than by duration
