How to farm War Spoils

the drops are independent of XP, so XP shouldnt be the reason. it might be that relic changed the droprate recently though!

disenchanting of a commander/bulletins/skins gives x material, building a new commander (hopefully permanent) costs y material with y>x.

Has anyone taken any notes of which factions they picked and drop rates? It could just be diverse RNG, but I feel as though I am getting a lot more drops with the newer factions than the older factions. I seem to average about 7-8 war spoils (total spoils not drops) in ~8 hours. But with Whermacht I seem to only be averaging around 3 in ~ 8 hours.

So that's effectively trading, especially when you have many duplicates, right? It's just that you don't trade with another player, but with Relic/Sega.

Damn, 2 days into the new patch and I already got the 2 new UKF commanders and the Intel Bulletin: I feel asleep... Giving the Land Mattress vet 10% faster. Did they chance the drop rate or am I just that lucky?

Think I might have completed the UKF again just 2 days after the patch, insane.

can i do other stuff while the script runs? like can i move the screen around or minimize it? id like to do my homework while it runs.

Couple more questions:
1. should i set game time for 1 hour or 30 minutes?
2. can't i just press the force victory now button after 6 minutes to speed things up?

Thank you!

As long as you keep an eye on the timer and be sure the CoH2 window is active before it expires, you should be able to do other stuff. The script has stopped responding for me a few times when I was clicking around in other programs, but this shouldn't be a big deal if you're sitting there anyway.



1) The script creator (or somebody) mentioned earlier that 60-minute games seem to yield the best results. In my experience, this is true.

2) I think drops are dependent on time, not the number of matches you play. In nearly 130 hours of farming, I've been getting about 1 drop every 4 to 6 matches. When I dropped the match time to 30 minutes, I was at times going 10 or more matches without even getting a bulletin.

If RIP farming means only automatch gives drops. Its GG WP uninstall. I play a lot of Theather of War and custom matches with friends.
