We're getting more useless shards and mods

Hey if you don't like shard shop currency or mods you can send them to me.

It's only less rewards if you don't have the team for a specific assault battle.

Although, come to think of it, if you didn't have the team for a specific assault battle and that one came up for two days you'd be getting even less. So. Never mind. This is just straight up better. Stop complaining.

Mild counterpoint, if you only had one of two teams and the right one ran this month, you'd be better off than if the wrong one ran this month. So it's better for some, worse for others, and irrelevant to most of us.

It's not better. If you look at the calendar for the last quarter of 2018, we had 5 assault battles each month that lasted 2 days, so we had 10 attempts and 10 days' worth of shards/**** currency. Jan-March 2019 we had 6 per month lasting 2 days each, so we had 12 attempts per month at getting shards and currency. April and May had fewer with only 2 and 3 two-day assault battles respectively, meaning 6 attempts in total. Now we have 6 day-long events, 6 attempts in total. This is definitely a cut-back to the usual cadence of events that we have come to expect.

That's not the point though. You're right that they have reduced the number of events from earlier in the year. The point is that this month is different than last month, but not better or worse, just different.

True, I guess I didn't realize this thread was just talking about last month to this month. From that perspective there is no change in the rewards. I still want to know why they made the change to 1 day, because it's still far fewer days of events/rewards compared to previous months.

Your wording is a bit confusing, because the change that matters wasn't to 1 day, it was to the total number of days with events in the month. Regardless, my assumption (along with the reduction in ROLO and IPD shards) is that they decided there was too much shard shop currency being generated, which makes sense as the game ages and more and more people have all the toons at 7*.

Easy solution.

Glass is half empty types:
Yup, it's less you are definitely getting screwed.

To the other 10 people:
We all know they are going to complain even if we explain it logically, just sit back drink a drink and eat your gluten free mac and cheese.
