How full should 3 day old chests be compared to before the update?

  1. ~1h unlooted (how it is now)

    Recently I wanted to lootrun for a Lvl. 76 Suppression since the prices on the Trade Market are unaffordable, but after the 2nd run I noticed that the chests have barely any items in them. Even with 3 days of waiting and a full lootrun set equipped t3 and t4 chests are about as full as they would be on a 1h old world before the update and you can forget trying to get anything from t1 and t2 chests. I see the need to incentivize the new lootrun system and maybe the loot you could get before the update was a bit too much but this basically kills classic lootrunning (running from chest to chest and opening them).
    Now this might not be that bad if the new system covered everything but first of all it is only accessible for high lvl players and secondly I personally find it very boring to run between the same 20 or so spots over and over again with long travel distances in between.
    Classic lootrunning is accessible for any player, even at level 1, and was a great source of better gear for me when i was a still new to the game.
    It is also pretty simple and a nice contrast to having to fight mobs/ bosses like in a lot of other end game content and there are hundreds of chests spread around the server leaving it up to the player to find an optimal path in the preferred area. I have spent way longer doing classic lootruns than doing the new lootruns but I felt burnt out way quicker.
    In my opinion waiting 3 days is a long time and should fill chests up to at least the same amount that 3-4 hours of not looting them before the update did. This would make classic lootrunning a still viable option while the new lootrun system is for people that wanna spend more time on the game.

    I feel like in the old update, the only way to lootrun was with a special lootrun build with disco, crafted, etc. I like how they made it more of an activity for everyone to do.

    You didn’t have to use a lootrun build, it just increased the chances of getting better loot. You could get a budget build for less than 32 le anyways which should be affordable for endgame players. The issue I see is that lootrunning is exclusively endgame content now.

    Do you want the level 5s in Nivla Woods to find and sell mythics?

    Plus, and I haven't tested it's legitimacy yet, I've heard it's worth doing an "old school" (pre-2.0.3) lootrun every 3 or more days for the loot anyway - maybe give that a try?

    As we all know you can’t find mythics at such low levels, but at lower levels it’s nice finding equipment yourself instead of buying it off the trademarket.
    I didn’t test lootrunning everywhere but I already tried it in Corkus and near Cinfras with 3 days of waiting (100% loot quality) and the chests were very dry every time (except the first time), like I explained in the main post.
