Datacron management and drop rates

When will we get some sort of management tool for datacrons in our inventory? Places like squad arena and tw already have a way to sort them but you can't do anything in your datacron inventory screen

Also would like to see drop rates posted for datacron levels/stats as they are definitely weighted differently, we should have the right to see this information especially since some are already gambling on the reroll packs to chase said levels

    They also swap what you get for dismantling occasionally with no apparent reason why and no explanation
    Stuff that paying customers would like to know imo


    correct me if i'm wrong, but drop rates are not the same thing as when you purchase a pack. if i purchase a pack, i have the right to know what i'm buying (or gambling for), but if i'm simming a node, I don't have any right to know what the drop rate is for that sim.

    if feels like you're comparing apples to oranges.

    They don't post drop rates for anything, so that's not going to happen. They do know the datacron UI is lacking, so hopefully they're going to do something with the next QoL, but I wouldn't really hold my breath on that.

    Yes, because they legally have to. Until that law passed they did not do that. You don't see why DC's should be different? Go find me the posted drop rates of any shard or gear on any node in the game.

    Well if you are gambling on reroll mats (which drop rates are listed) then turn around and start using those on Datacrons which have multiple outcomes shouldn't it also have drop rates
    It seems kinda shady if not lol, or maybe I'm the only one thinking that haha

    Obviously if you aren't spending on them it wouldn't be an issue, but if you are it seems kinda sus if everything is not weighted equally

    No, it doesn't make sense to have things that aren't paid for display drop rates, and no, it's not shady that it is done this way.

    No, it definitely isn't, whether you pay for them or not. Is not knowing the Kyro drop rate sus if you are buying Kyros with $$$? No, of course not.

    I agree with OP that we should have the right to see drop rates. But legally, we don't. Time to call your congressional representative ;)

    Putting rights and legality aside, my personal preference is that should be able to see them. But, EA/CG have decided that it is not in their shareholders' best interests to show us, or they would have done so.

    So, yet another reason I keep my money.
