Typically .5 Zatarains jar/.5 Louisiana bag seasoning + 4-8oz liquid per sack.
Not sure how big of a pot you are using, but even in a 100 qt pot, that is a shite load of salt you are adding, assuming that is 1/2 of a large jar / bag of Zats and Louisiana seasoning. I add about the same amount of liquid boil as you do.
My rule of thumb, and I'm pretty sure I got this from many other posts on here, is to use about half the amount of seasoning in your second batch, as you did in your first batch.

This is wild to me. Why not have them all be consistently good?
They are all consistently good. I usually add more heat in the third batch (since not everyone likes it very hot and fewer people are eating by that point) that I didn't in the first two, which is why it is usually my favorite. My point was that I don't notice any degradation in the third batch. Maybe it's because I thoroughly clean my crawfish?

I mostly use one of those 90qt all in one boilers from Academy (single sack).
