Hello everyone, i have a question about loot division.

1.If u have 3 heros in your party, and u flag them out of range of you, while u are killing and getting loot, does the chance of you getting golds/loot go down, just bc they are in your party?

2.Because i read somewhere that if they are in your party, the chacnes of u getting a gold go down drastically?

Flagging hero/henchies off compass equals better loot for you but gold is still split amongst all party members.

No. If you are in a group of eight people, you have a one-eighth chance every time something drops for it to be assigned to you. It does not matter if the other seven are other human players, or AI henchmen/heroes. Henchmen and heroes decrease the chance of a drop being yours by the same amount as human players. You still have the same 12.5% (1/8) chance to get each drop.
