I had meant to post this sooner, some of you may have seen this or read this elsewhere but likely didn't think anything of it. However, it is unusual for MA to admit to anything:
"Any attempts at abusing team mechanics or any other Entropia Universe
systems or features in order to gain an unfair advantage over other
participants will be grounds for disqualification from the event."
These words were found in the terms of the Feffox event. I read this as an admission by MA that teams are treated differently by the system than solo hunters. The ramifications of this are unknown, but given that I could only ever global or hof in a team but never solo (even if the others in the team are not hunting with me), proves that indeed teams loot differently (usually better) than solo hunters.

TEAMS: Being In A Team = More Globals
This is something I wanted to cover quickly. I cannot explain it totally, but presumably the system is more favorable in giving loot to teams than individuals, since groups tend to burn peds faster than individuals, a logical deduction.
But it baffles me that I have had dozens of hunting globals and hofs, yet only two were solo. I can't for the life of me rack up any solo hunting hofs or globals. The two I had almost certainly were accidents.
Today, I globalled 56 peds on a mulholland boy level 3 or 4 mob. My team was active still and the friend I was in team with was offline, and it would seem as long as they are still in your team list online or not, you can still loot your kills.
Generally, I don't hunt with anyone else, even if I am teamed with them. I am off doing my own thing, as are they. I still set the loot to damage stack share just in case they do run into me and help kill something. I get all my loot from what I kill that globals or hofs. So I will set up a team JUST FOR THE PURPOSE of getting better loot. I know I will global in a team but that I most likely won't solo. And this irritates the hell out of me. No pun intended lol.
SO if your hunting is complete crap like mine, give a team a try, find someone you know who is willing just to be on your team even if they aren't hunting.
