Bored to kill titans

I realize you’re giving an example, but let’s make sure the facts are out there:

Who? Grade Loot Tier
Top 1 A+ Titan+3
Top 2-5 A Titan+2
Damage>=3.3% B Titan+1
Damage>=1.0% C Titan
Damage<1% D Titan/2

Higher loot tier gives two benefits:

  1. More loot rolls. At Loot Tier IX, you are guaranteed three ascension mats (mostly farmable)
  2. Better odds of rare loot with each roll.

@Rigs general point is correct: if your allies report their loot on in chat, you’re more likely to hear someone with a B/C say “yea, I got darts!” – because there are a LOT more of them. In my alliance, 25 people get a B or C every titan. Collectively those 25 get more rare loot than the top 5 but–and this is the key point–over time you get better stuff at higher loot tiers.

I know this firsthand by comparing my main account (hitting 12* titans, getting A-C rankings) or my alt (hitting 9* titans usually, getting A-B rankings). The flow of mats to my main account over the course of six months is much higher. Higher loot tiers matter.
