I know, dead thread, but was looking today because I haven't gotten ANY shard drops from level 8 of the Cantina recently. The only thing, @Kyno, about what you just posted, is that it uses data from LS/DS battles, and the OP specifically mentioned Cantina, and Cantina drop rate is what brought me to this thread. It seems screwingly low lately. This game certainly FEELS like it is increasingly screening people over. And there are DEFINITELY different rates for different characters. I can average 50% on Ezra and 15% on Bossk... that says something (and for the record, Ezra is the ONLY toon I get a good drop rate on in Cantina, Hera is mediocre, thank goodness, because she's my last star needed to 7* Thrawn). But from where I sit, the burden of proof is on those claiming it's all fine and dandy. Why don't THEY ever have data to back up the "it's still 30%" claim? I mean the above post shows nothing: if two weeks of farming Wicket is a useable sample size, then how can you say the people not getting 30% are in the wrong?! I get tired of this debate almost as much as I'm tired of people posting BS data and saying it supports the theory. It's like the Bible, you can use it to justify anything. Oh, it's 30% here, 20% there, 50% there, 5% over here. Until a long-term study is done, across a large sample of users, tracked over at least 6 months, let's say, we can't say shit about shit. I think it would be worth it for the community to come together on this one, get 1 million users to track all their data over several months and upload that somewhere for a person to compile. I am willing to be the one who complies the data if people are willing to make spreadsheets with Google Docs to share their data. I guess the trick is picking which toons to focus on, and spreading it out enough to measure more than just a couple, but ... let's say we use the vets, for example, and 1 million people track their shard drops on vets for six months (cause it'll probably take that long before you 7* them, and most people will want them for JTR), that's a start. Other toons who are regularly leveled to 7* would also serve as good markers. I don't know how to promote this sort of thing, without enough people taking part, it won't make a difference, but I for one would love to go to a dev and be like, "It's 10%, here's the proof," since this game is stupid enough without the drop rates.
