Cara shards

I don't know if this is a major anomaly, but I have run 60 sims on the Cara node this week. I have gotten one shard. The odds of that are worse than winning the lottery. CG please look in to this. ...

There is no reason why someone spending resources on energy and crystals should get 1 shard in 60 simulations.

There are only 3 possible conclusions from this:

1) you’re mistaken about only getting 1 shard
2) you haven’t done 60 sims
3) you have done 60 sims, but haven’t always simmed the correct node

There actually is a 4th possibility:

4) OP got 1 shard for 60 sims.

Yes, it's highly unlikely to happen, but not impossible.

@Nasdadjr Did you track all your attempts and drops? What are the exact results?

I dismissed that possibility as an outlier.

So you just dismissed what the person said because...
