So after watching Mobilegamer recent video and the mention of "knobs" as a hidden mechanic that can change the games difficulty and item drop rates on the fly.Can someone from CG confirm or deny the use of these mechanicS within SWGOH?ThanksLink for the patent below

I watched a video once that said the earth was flat. Can CG confirm or deny this, too?For real, though, what's wrong with some people?

Besides. If they clearly and concisely and uneqivocally said "No, we don't use knobs." All you'd do is say "Wel, of COURSE they'd *say* they don't..."

I for one have been collecting data since the CLS event for when a single shard or gear is required and the case when zero of the target amount is collected. Summary of 637 shards when 1 away from completing a star level:Assumption: Using a single sim until the condition of missing 1 shard is void. Data is compared against 33.33% drop rate. Data is compared against recorded shard drop rates per node. Chi squared model is used to prove occurrences of drop rate changes under known conditions. Result:Dramatic decrease to 3.74% given the case before the sim. Original shard drop rates could be modeled under a Gaussian curve. Mean was 32.97+\-0.56%. Std Dev was +\-4.82%.Being more than 5 standard deviations away from the mean when under these conditions is suspicious. A similar result for gear is only 4 standard deviations away from the population mean. More confidence in the gear data is warranted due to a data population size of 2, 528.Conclusion: More data needs to be recorded.

For real, though, what's wrong with some people?

The video I watched yesterday said they did.

Unless and until one can prove that this happens...hard to say that it is an issue.

I have gotten frustrated when I couldn't get the last piece but also surprised that I got exact the number of pieces/shards I needed.

They denied that they change drop rates (again) the other day in the Q&A. I mean, how much denial do you require?
