Best luck you've had.

I don't know how lucky it was, but it was definitely the lowest probability and best possible timing for a thing to happen.

Back when I was farming General Veers, this was right after Imperial Troopers got their rework and I still didn't have him unlocked, I would do his hard node every day and finally got to 49/50. So at the end of the day I spent all my ally points on bronzium packs, as usual, and get the 50th shard and thought, "Oh, great! I should go unlock him now! Eh, I've got enough for one more pack, it won't take too long to open." So I opened the next bronzium pack and inside was a full Veers. So not only was I able to unlock him, but I got him to 4* and had 20 shards towards his 5th star.

This was before the change to repeat character pulls, too, so setting aside that had I closed the window and unlocked him then come back I wouldn't have gotten the full Veers, even if I had gotten him I'd have only gotten I think 25 shards?

So share up, what's the best luck you've had? Not necessarily the best outcome, but the most improbable thing. The game has such a playerbase that a one-in-a-million outcome is going to happen to someone every day.

    Full Carbanti in bronzium pull.

    Even did a little dance afterwards.


    Same here.
  • A few days ago I pulled 80-shards of Barriss Offee, and 30-shards of Biggs Darklighter. Those have been my best pulls yet! I likely have not noticed any of the really good gear pulls.
  • One full MK VIII binoculars (for Palp) and some other full pieces of otherwise bum pain stuff I think.

    I don't celebrate though. I feel it's a break even return on time investment in this game.

    Much like the end of a Sabine shard drought.
  • I got two 50 shard lobots back to back last night from bronzium packs... Winning!

    Fills a Platoon spot. That's crazy luck!

    When I was prepping for Thrawn I pulled two full Carbanti in a week when getting to G8+. That saved a fortune.
  • Current gold run is Old Ben shards. only been a week with minimal refreshes and I nearly have him unlocked.

  • I'm on Farmboy right now and it's the opposite, two full refreshes on his cheap node I've received 4 shards.
  • @NicWester it's been six weeks but I'm glad this thread is finally taking off. Had a full Boba and a full Mace from free bronziums on consecutive days last week just as I was getting worryingly low on shard shop currency. Could do with that again this week.
