probably been said before but I couldnt find any immediate threads about it.

The loot inside Loot skull chest should not be a lil gold and a yellow item.

That is for the lower tiers of containers.

loot skull chest should contain better loot on average.
 
Where are you looting?
Sounds like Ravens Cove.. If you looking for gold I'd recommend going to Tormenta or Dark Hart.

I do agree commons shouldn't be in skulls.
 
It doesn't happen often, but I've had skull chests that dropped like 25 gold, a common item, and some trash collectible. The latest I can recall was at Kingshead.
 
This is the way it’s been since the introduction of loot in potco in 2010. I see no reason to suddenly change, without trash skulls people would lose a very benign avenue to vent their frustration at not getting the big payoff and would then potentially start griping in a more harmful way. I feel that drop rates are pretty good now and improving the content of skulls would then require skulls to be more rare, I’m ok with that but see it as a nothing change. Is it just that you want higher drop rates for the best items or would you prefer rarer skulls with better items?

Loot on Ravens Cove has a 25 gold cap, this is a potco tradition that I love. I don’t see how anyone could legitimately complain about not enough gold dropping in this game, there are many ways to get 300000 gold very quickly. Loot on the other hand is a balance between people wanting to feel the gratification of getting something, keeping items rare enough to give those people a sense that they got something rare and valuable, and keeping the best items rare enough so that few people will exhaust their possible finds. It’s tricky but I think the developers have done pretty well with that.

I literally said that the 25 gold was on Kingshead not Raven's cove. What the op is saying is that there should be a minimum loot value of skull chests, because theyre already kind of rare to drop, so you should at least be guaranteed not trash.

There is a minimum loot value in skulls, it’s a common weapon and a common clothing item. There is no gold guarantee but as I already said, gold is easy to come by so why would anyone care about the amount of gold in a skull chest. Skulls are far from rare and so it is my opinion that if the minimum loot value is significantly increased then they should become significantly more rare.

I just can't agree with you. I agree with op that if the minimum on a skull chest is a common weapon and common clothing, then that should be raised to at least a rare in one of the categories.
