Chromium packs

My brother is level 37, has been playing for about two weeks and has opened maybe ten chromium packs (he's f2p), and has still not got a single character other than the generic ones everyone starts with (JC, Chewie, Talia, etc). Nor has he got any from the Bronzium packs (by the time I was his level I had got Mace Windu and Ima-Gun Di from the Bronziums, but I might have just been extremely lucky). Is everyone having the same issue with getting just shards from Chromium packs? Or can you give any advice as to what he can do to quickly get a new character? Cause he's quickly losing excitement with the game using the generic characters, he really wants a unique team!
  • The only problem I have with the Chromium packs is the unpredictability of it. If there's a certain character I'm trying to farm that's only available there, I have no reliable means of doing so. I spend my $30 and hope that it wasn't a waste.

    If there was a way to spend extra crystals in order to guarantee drops for a certain character, I would be all over that. Something like 50-100 extra crystals to ensure you get at least 12 shards but with a 20-25% chance to drop the full character instead. That way, I'm technically paying all that money for the shards I want and then getting seven other sets of shards as a bonus, which may or may not include additional shards for my desired toon.

    If you REALLY want characters from chromium, save for 8x pack. As far as I know, it guarantees at least 1 full character.


    It may say "Guaranteed Character" but I have proven it DOES NOT guarantee a full character. I've done the 8x pack 4 times and still have not gotten a full character from them yet. I gave up on the 8x bulls#!t packs and now only use my crystals for refreshes.
  • The other games that have included this generally do so after buying your way through to a premium VIP level, of which this game has no such option. I could be mistaken, but any game I've played that had a free "premium pack" purchase came after spending lots of money lol
  • Good idea, because you won't get them too much and in the same time it will be a sort of gift for playing the game , maybe it can also work as a login reward
  • It is all about luck some people even got *4 star characters on bronzium data cards
  • So easy to make gems? Its not that easy , you get a few gems easily ofcourse but not that much
  • Gratz your a winner

    Ben is the cromium that I wanted since I started playing, and he is the only cromium only toon I havn't unlocked.

    But its nice to hear others having good luck :smile:

    So I had "the itch" (not that itch you nasty wookie), and I decided to buy a pack in hopes of getting Mace unlocked or maybe one of the other Jedi for the coming event. I figured what's the worst that can happen. Then the pack opened and it was awful. Clone sgt, police, more Leia and others my brain has already forced me to forget about and then my one final unlock (guaranteed character) is none other than obi wan motha f'n kenobi lol. So on the one hand he doesn't do me much good for the event, but it's obi wan! I'm happy with the purchase. I did score some needed QGJ shards. Just hit 4* today and he is well on his way to 5* now. People always complain, I thought I'd share some joy.


    duh you got obi wan. He's good even at 4*.
