Imperial Probe Droid and Rebel Officer Leia Organa

Since the frequency of territory battles has been declining as of late, is there any way we could get a secondary way to farm IPD and ROLO? My guild just got enough members to decently farm IPD, and we've only got shards once or twice in recent memory. I think it will be literal years before we get IPD to seven stars at this rate.

    100 is what they were making a decision to change from.


    How so? OP necroed the post to talk about how now we’re getting even less...and that’s based on the current 50 rate.
  • It is a realistic correction. If those toons are valuable to you, great. You have a vector for gaining them. If they're not worth it, fine. Ignore them like most people ignore Gamorrean Guard.
  • That’s why you play the Geo TB to get the Wat shards and when he gets finished like Imp Droid and Rolo, u can get extra Wat shards to spend in the SS
  • Don’t buy the Imp Droid or Rolo shards. There’s other ways of getting shards to spend in the shard shop. GWar for example, Cantina and other places.

    Now that GEO TB has taken over for the DS TB slots for all competitive players. There needs to be a way to consistently attain Probe Droid shards.

    900 MK2GEC for 5 shards is a complete and utter joke.


    Absolutely, no way i'm gonna spend MK2GEC on IPD shards.
  • Yeah, Galactic Bounties is about 8 shards/month. About 100 shards/year. I was really hoping it would be more frequent than that when I stopped buying Wampa shards for GET, but...

    Still, there are other characters - like Padme - that are more important and require toons needed elsewhere (like Geo TB) anyway. So I'm glad I put my GET to use buying gear for my Malak-Event squads and Geos and Seps. This time round I get Wampa to 6*. I'm not spending on him until after Malak is 7* though. That's just reality. So if it takes another year, it takes another year.

    So this isn't such a bad deal for me. I mean, I don't like it, but I'm not worried about it either. Wampa could help in Geonosis, but my Separatist droids will help more. There are reasons I'm doing things this way.

    I encourage you to think the same way about ROLO & IPD. I love my IPD. I'm glad I have my IPD, but I don't need it in my arsenal. Would you rather have Wat Tambor more than IPD? Probably. WT is probably a ton better than IPD, not just for constructing the best possible squad but also because of the role he plays in Geo TB where we're getting all our end-game rewards right now.

    Someday they'll fix this. And reminding EA/CG they need to fix this isn't bad, per se. But if you don't have ROLO and IPD, then you must also be missing a whole ton of other characters that are better than those two. You can still make progress without more ROLO/IPD shards.
