I’ve tried a little with S2 14, 16, and 18 but haven’t been very impressed. I think S2 18-5 gave up a couple nuggets in 4 runs, but none from 14 or 16. I have to agree with @PeachyKeen that running S1 5-8 appears to still be more efficient per flag. I do plan more runs during next Atlantis Rises.
I have been farming 2:14,16 and 18 as suggested and after 100 loot tickets, and many hundred WE, I got ONE. I used to get them often. Been out of tornadoes for weeks.
Last Atlantis i used some 460 loot tickets farming Season 2 Hard 12/10 (8 WE) and got something like 1 nugget every 3 or 4 rounds. I switched to Season 2 Hard 18/10 (9 WE) this time and got more nuggets, about 2 every 3 runs.
The former yields more Grimoire Dust and maybe Atlantis Coins though but i’ll stick to the latter going forward.
I’ve just done 6 runs in season 2 1:9 and got 4 nuggets and 5 bones so I’m sticking with here it was just a random hit as I had 7 flags left and when I got a nugget I did a few more runs and got 3 more! Did 4 more runs one at 1:9 normal got a nugget then 3 runs of hard and got 2 more!
I’m sorry it is all random but I’ve not done 7 runs and not got a nugget plus the other loot is decent FYI I go through about 26 flasks in Atlantis lol
Just for anyone else that searches this thread some more results from season 2 1:9 bearing in mind each image is from 7 runs but as you can see this is the best place I’ve found I’ve done numerous runs elsewhere and got none at all! image|231x500
