Medal drops in age 2.
Has anyone figured out the system in how medal drop rates are? Ok for example if I hit different valleys, sometimes I get 2 or 3 in a row, but sometimes I can hit 20 and not see one. And spamming the same valley, conquer then abandon doesn't seem to work. I would just like to know exactly how it works in age 2 so I can optimize my chances for getting medals. Also I was never able to get another medal or item from the same valley twice in one day. Are the medals randomly spread out on valleys after a server reset, and once someone gets one from that valley nobody can get another until the next reset? That is the only way I can explain multiple medal drops in a row then go another 20+ without seeing another. Because otherwise that would be statistically impossible. Can someone confirm my thoughts on this? Gotta be something more to this than just a base % chance to get a medal. I am thinking scout bomb every low level valley within 20 miles of you to get rose/lion medals, then wait another day and repeat, be another day or 2 before I will be able to try that since I just started yesterday, but I will try to confirm if that gets me better results or not.
And yes the chance for a medal drop does seem higher than on the later age 1 servers which is great, and I am not complaining about medal drop rates, just trying to figure out the most efficient method to get them. If there is a real easy way to do this and you don't want to post it in fear of the devs lowering the drop rates again (like they did on age 1) just send me a PM instead of posting it here.

I recorded all of my hits on valleys for medal and item drops. Ill stick it here for you to see but there are quite a few. Where you see the same valley and level over and over is when I spammed the same valley.

Haha, I got there before you. :P
-
I have tried this again, and I never, and I repeat NEVER gotten medals by spamming the same valley, I hit a level 2 flat directly adjacent to me 20x and got nothing. Also tried it on a level 3 hill adjacent to me, once again, I got NOTHING. But if I spread my attacks out and hit different onces every time then I got better luck. The server I am on is NA12, which might be different or have a lower drop rate than your server. But still higher than Age 1 drop rates. Can't say I have gotten a single item from a valley, but I did get ONE from a level 1 NPC. Unless something was changed from server to server, or recently, its just not possible I am THAT unlucky.
-
I do find medals faster when I spread out on hitting valleys.
-
If what you posted is correct, you didn't go more than 8 hits without finding an item or a medal, and that was a lot of hits. I consistently got 20-25 or even 30 hits without seeing ANYTHING, and then all the sudden I will get 6 medals in a row. It is kinda odd how I haven't found any items from valleys yet, I have made more than enough hits to where I should have gotten something.
-
The hits I posted was every valley or NPC hit I made within 2 days of last week, in order, and with the exact things dropped in each attack. Although I think the drop rates are being tweaked still.
-
Seems like they would have better things to do than keep modifying the medal/item drop rate, like go enjoy their day or go golfing or something. They are making more money than they ever did, and no telling what they got from the face book contract. The little bit less they will make on medal boxes, they will get back selling stratgems.
Oh and since the last post I made, I found one cross medal.
Something like this
Level 2 flat => Cross Medal
50 hits later => Nothing
Log on Tomorrow
Level 2 flat=> Rose Medal
Level 3 flat=> Lion Medal
Level 2 lake=> Rose Medal
Level 1 Hill=> Nothing
Level 2 swamp=> Lion Medal
50 hits later=> Nothing
Level 1 flat=> Cross medal
Rest of the day=> Nothing
Rince and repeat tomorrow.
This scenario was very similar from yesterday compared to today, and I am not exaggerating. And this pattern repeats itself day to day, so it can't be random.
Oh and I still haven't found any items from a valley. No gems, no material, no nothing.
Maybe they are as low as in Age 1.
Now if someone from Evony staff would like to clarify what exactly determines the medal drop rates, does it chance from hour to hour? Are there times when you just wont get a medal no matter how many attacks you make? If so explain please. I think the players are at least entitled to an explanation about certain aspects of the game, instead of making us guess or speculate. If you put limits on how many medals someone can get in a certain time, say so, something like we think its ok for people to progress, but not too fast, but at least freakin tell us something?
