Lately, I've found some interesting results regarding drop rates, and I'm wondering whether it's my account's problem, or is it natural.Mk5 AKT Stun Gun Salvage (Dark 8B): Farmed 180. Drop rate: Never higher than 1/10IG-100 Magnaguard (Cantina 3C): Farmed 21. Never higher than 2/13.Old Ben Kenobi (Cantina 2E?) Farmed 330. Almost always higher than 4/10Are these drop rates rigged?!

Track all your attempts and not just the selected good/bad days.

Here's a screenshot if a surprisingly good drop just to keep us all in a positive mood.

Here's another. There are good days and bad days. I like to only record the good ones - it can be nice therapy for said bad days.

I'm not kidding when I said never more than one out of ten. More than 1000 attempts. It's so low that I now farm those with crystals (waste of resources, I know, what I can't do anything about the RNG)It's not that you're kidding, it's that you're either wrong or lying.What you're saying isn't realistic. And i dont mean that in a "gee, you must have really bad luck kind of way." I mean it in the, "absolutely implausible, near impossible" way.You haven't actually tracked any data and that is obvious.

Don't ask these questions, you'll always get the parrots with their 33%. Tell 33% to the 383738 Jedi consular fighter shards I get in the hyena bomber battle compared to the barely 2 or 3 in 15 battles I get for the bomber. Or to the 383737 ig-86 shards I get in the vulture droid battle.

Don’t ever tell anyone the actual, proven-a-hundred-times drop rate. You’ll just get the parrots with their stories about obvious rigging that aren’t backed up by evidence.

I’ve been tracking rh Finn. Here is my data. 31.67% so far, variant due to small sample size. If I cut out the first week, I’m 34.25%. I’ll bet someone out there had awesome results week one, and less awesome since.

How are your JC fighter shard drops?

No idea, haven’t tracked that part

I think you missed why I asked.

That’s awesome! Gear for days in the shard store, congratulations.

Maybe, but I can guarantee if the drop rate on JC starship was higher than 33% we would all know about it because there would be evidence from someone that has tracked it. Somehow when I farm hyena bomber I don’t get rich off the shard currency from JC, but my hyena shards drop about 33%. I wish I had @Drazhar luck!
