Out of 3.5k ally points, I got 50 Chewie Shards, 10 RG shards, 10 RG shards, and 10 Snow Trooper shards. Was this absolutely insane luck, or is there a bug going on with bronziums?

I had 350k shards and spent them all and got roughly 80 RG shards, and probably 200 other miscellaneous shards.

I spend my ally points in bulks of 5k or 10k and I usually get 1 or 2 shards maximum. So yeah, 80 shards in 3.5k is extremely lucky.

Also remember they changed full character drops to convert to number of shards for unlock. 4+ full character drops is still pretty good though.

I swear it come in bulks. The RNG is FUBAR in this game. Characters come in bunches for me. Just like everything else.

I've gotten fives full unlock like 4 times in the last month. Never got one shard of his when I was farming him though lol. I'll take the 50 for shard shop anytime though

I've gotten two RG unlocks in the two weeks since the R2 event ended, after I already 7* him. I also got two Ewok Scout unlocks after the Ewok pass month ended and I was no longer working on him, those unlocks were like back to back too. I got a Dooku unlock last week too which was awesome because I hadn't unlocked him yet so with the shards I already had I was able to rank him up a star level right away. I keep hoping that I'll get a Barriss or a Ima Gun-Di unlock but those have yet to happen.

About a month apart I got an ima gun di unlock for 80 shards, already had him 7* so into the shop it went, then a barris unlock for 80 shards, was 60/100 so got my 7* and half went to the shop.

Just burned about 10k out of my 1.06M points.
Received 3 full chars (Snowtrooper - 10shards, Some Jawa - 80shards, IG-86 - 10 shards).
Total of 1650 Store currency.

Not bad.

Edit: Didn't see the IG-86 shards right away :)

During the time up to, and during the R2 event, I was frantically farming empire toons, but although I spent countless thousands of ally points, I got next to no empire shards. And a grand total of zero shards for RG, which was the toon I needed the most shards for.

After 7*ing RG and the event ended, I have now gotten no less than 120 RG shards from the bronziums.

One in a million odds is all.

But the thing about one in a million odds is that if you have twenty million players someone is going to have that kind of luck once a day. Today was your day! Congratulations!

I had been monitoring the drop rates on bronziums for a while ( 9-10 months) It used to be on average every 6k you got a character shard and every 18k you got a full toon drop. I typically got better than that until a couple of months ago ( when they changed shard numbers for full character drops) where it seems to have changed. I now see toon and shard drops all happening around the same time (bunched together) and it is now taking an average of 25k for a full toon drop.
