Let's talk about zetas

Okay, I may have missed it and can't find it under search but...I don't know what the drop rate is for zetas on the challenges

Let's just say the drop rate is 50%. Which I would consider high for EA! I am betting more like 5-10% drop rate. But for the sake of agreement go with 50%.

If you in 40 days at a usual ship arena rewards get one zeta every two days then you would have about 20 zetas in 40 days and enough to zeta a character.

If you go for challenges and say 40 days which is about 36 attempts in 40 days give or take. And let's just say it is 50% drop rate then you have 18 zetas in 40 days.

Ideally, you get 38 by both challenges and the shipments; however, if you are f2p how long would it take to get challenges up to zeta level and how many "40" day opportunities would you miss to get the challenges up to zeta level.

Now take that 50% and put it into EA standard 5% and you have almost no reason to waste valuable resources on ship shards from the ship arena shipments.

Y'all help me on figuring this up. Am I wrong? It seems that either you p2p with ships or you only use ship shipments for zeta in order to progress.

Maybe I am missing something but this seems odd.
