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 refreshes. Plan accordingly.

This can’t go unaddressedWe weren't told because they either don't care, or they did it on accident and didn't notice. Either way, don't expect a response. I would be shocked if we ever get a response, given how little they care about customer experience these days.

I know that they see these posts and if they allow this to go unanswered it’s beyond shameful on their end."Beyond shameful" is not new to them. I don't expect them to care.

I'm just surprised no one has been slapped in the face yet. :wink:

Well that sucks. I didn't care much about the cardboard bomber but I seriously considered trying to get the Echelon as far as I can, even with the more expensive refreshes. I guess that's no longer on the table. Oh well, more crystals saved...

I have seen one person say they got 5* with just doing the 200s, so it's possible with excellent RNG. Just not the norm.

Not if you stock 1000 energy before the event. Then, barring bad rng, you’ll get your 5* with 200 refreshs.

I stocked 1100 energy. Still short of 5*.

On paper you should get 5*, but rng being rng, a good chunk of players with bad luck will fall short.

Edit: 765 energy with 5 refreshes per day, 3825 in 5 days, 4925 with your hoarded energy. 3%, 147,75 shards.

On paper I should have gotten 5* with only 3x100 since I had 1100 banked.

So far FO Tie E is about the same for me off a very small sample

320 for 9
320 for 10

960 for 29 = 3.02%

the first order tie tank is already avail for galactic chase? I've logged in several times today and haven't seen it?

It starts at daily reset, so people with later time zones will have it already.

Thanks!

Any update on this? Just curious if we should expect closer to 3%
