Drop Rate Lowered During Event?

I was farming royal guard to 7 star for the R2 event.
But for 4 days in a row, I got about 1 shard every 10 ~ 11 battle.
In the worst case, 0/12, best case 1/8

Has the drop rate been lowered? Or is it just my bad luck?
  • As always, it's all perception. The drop rates may not be great, but CG have repeatedly told us that they don't change rates, and players have tracked the drop rates and confirmed this.
  • moved to correct sub forum.

    this^^
  • No, drop rates really seem reduced. Our guild members are saying the same thing. Personally, 15 attempts at veers today and 1 drop. We've been kind of noticing these past few days, since the increase to 5 attempts per day. I'd like a serious answer to this, please. They may not have changed the drop rate intentionally, but bugs are possible. Some are bigger than others.

    Key word i.e. they are not
  • 5 days, 5 battles each day, 20 energy each battle.

    500 energy and 25 attempts this week and zero Nihilus shards.

    EA purposely is dropping the droprate. In Cantina, getting a 1 in 9 droprate.

    People can say it hasn't changed but with droprate like that....come on.
  • I have a pretty dcent RNG, because I'm getting more shards than I usually do
  • Today i spend 144 points of energy and i haven't drop one single part of the equip for my hero, i try to refill the energy with the crystals, and i haven't trop another parts.
    I know for this game, and for the development, is necessary have a gain, but now is enough.
    Please change this thing.
  • It's quite incredible how the drop rate collapsed down since last period... energy (both normal and cantina) spent many and many times in several refresh to get only a couple of items needed...

    In this way, there will surely be more shoppers, but also people who will leave the game... no more fun sometimes and a lot of angry feelings.
  • 15 attempts a day for first order stormtrooper. If it's a good day I get 1 shard.
