PSA: Chase drop rates have been lowered
Just FYI while you're planning. In case you didn't notice, CG lowered the Chase drop rate in Cantina from 4% to 3% without notice. If you want a 5* ship from a Chase, you now have to spend the 400 ref...

I don’t understand the hate against Ultra? The only one who’s actually talking to us and being honest. CG is rotten at communication and transparency as always. But Ultra is the only one actually going above and beyond.
The nature of this makes it really, really hard to understand where the block is coming from. Maybe Ultra knows something, maybe she doesn’t. Maybe if she says something she loses her mod position, maybe she doesn’t. Same for Doja, Crumb, and now Meathead: they might just be being stonewalled by the Devs for an answer, they might have an answer but be blocked from communicating it, or they might just be refusing out of their own will. No real way to tell, we just have to judge from what we know of the people.
I’m more in the blame-the-devs camp than blaming the CMs or the site mods, but my main point is somewhere there’s a block that shouldn’t be there.

Has there ever been something like this where devs just refuse to answer something? I know things like buffing SEE or LV are similar but those usually get a cursory “we’re looking into it” to start.
Yes.
As far as the drop rate issue is concerned, we don't need the CM to answer on this anymore, imo
We have enough player data to make our own conclusions, so I think its best to move on from it
At this point, you are just stressing yourself over it
Yeah, I’m starting to remember a few too. Just most get locked because of people lacking civility and forgotten about.
We do have enough data to make our own conclusions, and those conculsions are that CG changed the Galactic Chase droprate without telling us. I don’t think that’s enough, though. For one thing, it could be a bug or mistake from the Cap Ship or Conquest Character chases with reduced drops, or it could be an intentional shift to get more money. I want to know which.
Moving on just lets these things continue happening. I still haven’t really forgiven CG for how they handled the oQGJ nerf. And what if some Dev decides that they can change droprates with impunity because no one saw and lowers something more impactful, like normal Character Shard drops or Kyro drops?
