Just curious about shard drops

After the log-in bug was fixed, I spent some energy on Inq farming and went 0/10.

That's unusual, but not rare and of limited sample size. Just curious if anyone (esp on iOS) has done more farming and whether shards dropped for them AFTER the log-in bug occurred and was fixed.

The most likely scenario is just that I got bad RNG, but you never know, and for some reason they're pushing out yet another update today so I thought...if they're pushing out another panic update, could they have somehow killed shard farming?

Again, I don't think so, since shard RNG is done server-side and no client update should affect that, but maybe???? And if there's nothing messed up, why yet another update?

So, who knows? Thought I would ask.
  • I got some shards. Second and…….. Who’s the green inquisitor on Dark 6 hard that isn’t Second Sister?
  • 8th brother.

    Okay, thanks. It was just a small amount of bad RNG -- the only thing that was really curious was that it was happening when CG was in the middle of putting out a grease fire with gasoline.
  • Just bad RNG. I had multiple 0 for 5s and a 3 for 5 yesterday. Statistically speaking going 0 for 10 is a likely occurrence (expect it to happen a couple times a week or more). If you make it to 0 for 15, that’s a once a month spate of bad luck. 0 for 20 once a year, and if you make it to 0 for 32, then you really have something to complain about and could statistically start claiming drop rates have changed. ;)

    From a psychological standpoint, it would be great if they guaranteed 1 shard a day if you do at least 5 sims/battles, but I understand programming that would be much more difficult.
