Drop rates might be my last straw

I don’t know if it’s once you hit 2 mil or it’s just overall for everyone but the drop rates seem to have just gone to sht.

Cantina being the worst culprit. Why am I having to spend 1000 currency to get the last B-wing blueprint I need to promote?

If resources slow down when the requirements to progress get steeper, how can I grow? And if forcing me to spend to stand a chance is the plan then this isn’t something I’ll be playing much longer.

  • So a simple google search of your query shows that CG uses a Static Ruled Based AI - which means the game is coded for a very basic if/then rule system rather than a dynamic learning algorithm which would be required to throttle players.  They simply are not going to invest that much money into this almost 11 year old game.  You see how "stupid" the AI is in auto attack mode or on defense in TW and GAC.  It can't even control attacks by not terribly complicated teams like Baylan or JMMW on defense.  I hope this helps you understand the game engine and you can continue to play and find some enjoyment with the game.

    Sometimes the rng just relentlessly screws you is all. Nothing to do with your level

    When you are finishing a farm, your focus on the last fragments make you think something is wrong (only when is not convenient to you, some kind of bias I guess) and using a small sample of battles is futile (because of the "law of large numbers"), so if you think something wrong, provide evidence (at least a 100 battles), is easy to keep a track of the drop rates.

    For my experience is consistent with the well known 1/3ish.

    This is complete nonsense. Hopefully nobody reading this believes this false claim.

    There is nothing coded into the game that affects your drop rate as you get closer. As you have been told before, it’s just bad RNG, that’s it

  • There is something that’s coded into the game that when you get really close to the last gear piece or character shard it will not let it drop till you have burned up a few hundred crystals. Cantina drop rates especially the 20 energy level 9 section  Are pure hot garbage. I recently was farming Vel and I would on a good day 4 shards after 3 refresh’s. That’s 300 crystals flushed down the toilet. 

  • Drop rates are the same for all users, and don’t change as you near a farm completion.
