S2 1-7 Hard and 1-8 Hard look to be best for farming backpacks now if that’s what you want to do, 'tho the monster count/flag is really low for filling monster chests, so I’d probably combine it with something in the 3-flag zone like 7-4 (most monsters, otherwise meh), 7-7 for rugged clothes, or 8-7 or 6-8 for monsters and recruits.
According to the ascension item tool tip, s2-1-x N/H has double chance of kits ( backpacks ) while s2-4-x N/H has double chance of Rugged clothes.
This agrees with your luck with kits ( backpacks ) in s2-1-7/8 H.
I need to learn Google Docs so I can enter all my season 2 data. like Mai did ( see “Top replies” linky, linky )

Early game, farming for backpacks would have produced more XP worth of feeders at a slightly higher food cost (compared to TC11 or TC4).
Later game, being able to run TC19, farming for rugged clothes appears to be the winner for growing heroes, albeit at even higher food cost. (Right now food is limiting how fast I can burn my stockpile of rugged clothes, but soon enough I’m sure food won’t be the limiting factor, especially as I upgrade my farms past 16)
Common ( RT01 ) and Uncommon ( RT02 ) are terrible for XP per recruit ( see notes ).
Extra fast ( RT19 ) training is a great way to deal with the low XP per hour of Extra low cost ( RT11 ) since Extra fast is still way better in XP per recruit than Common or Uncommon.
Once you unlock Low cost, and Extra low cost, you can just store recruits there until you unlock Extra fast.

Farm 7-7 for rugged clothes. Run batches when you have the materials, recruits, and food. (I’m not out of clothes yet, but I’m chewing through them pretty quickly.)
There are a lot of reasons to love s1-7-7 ( see links )
MY PERSON OPINION
==Notes==
Common training ( RT01 ) is a terrible return on XP per recruit.
I use Extra fast training ( RT19 ), the second best XP per recruit ( linky, linky )
MY PERSONAL OPINION
To deal with the issue of 2* heroes, I feed two rainbow teams at once. One team only gets 1* heroes, the other gets 2*/ 3*/ Trainer heroes. Both teams get matching color. Once a hero is guaranteed 8/8 at max tier ( my Valen was 6/8 before 3* 1.30 ) it gets the 2* heroes.
And yes, I hoarded recruits in low cost ( RT04 ) and extra low cost ( RT11 ) until I unlocked Extra fast ( RT19 ) and Legendary ( RT20 ). Though I have since
Extra fast, 90 XP per recruit, 1 min. per hero, 240 recruits, 660k food, 120 rugged clothes, 180 XP per hero, 10800 XP per hour ( same color )
Common, 36 XP per recruit, 10 min. per hero, 60 recruits, 19.2k food, 12 wooden swords, 180 XP per hero, 1080 XP per hour ( same color )
Uncommon, 64.8 XP per recruit, 30 min. per hero, 20 recruits, 8k food, 4 kits ( backpacks ), 324 XP per hero, 648 XP per hour ( same color )
Extra low, 162 XP per recruit, 120 min. per hero, 2 recruits, 1k food, 324 XP per hero, 162 XP per hour ( same color )
5* 4.80 = 353,599 XP ( Example yellow 5* 4.80 Joon )
9823 recruits ( common - RT1 - same color ), 3.144 m food, 607 hours of WE*
5456 recruits ( uncommon - RT2 - same color ), 2.182 m food, 337 hours of WE

When my Wanted monster mission chest is in cool down, I am really really liking farming s1-7-7.
You get Rugged clothes for Extra fast training. Extra fast training is second best XP per recruit, but its XP per hour is 66.6 times faster than Extra low cost training. Extra fast training is also the best +special skill roll per XP. This makes it ideal for your last training camp ( “Delta”), you can alternate Extra fast ( speedy ) and Extra low cost ( most XP ).
