is a 5 star really that important

Yes. The stat boosts do make a difference, especially with tanks who are supposed to soak up damage

so 5 star is important but its terrible at 7 star ok

I don’t see how you came to that conclusion. How is it terrible at 7 stars?

thats what ive heard

Update: No update on this coming today, looks like tomorrow

I'll reopen the thread

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

No update today from CG today either

But the player data has enough data points for us to know what to expect

Fair enough. Thanks Ultra

I like when this Doja fella posts on the forums. He should do it more often :)

Now we just need him to actually provide info.....

I agree. Baby steps. At this point, any response feels like an improvement.

Probably by end of week

Of what I heard and see, I think the drop rate was lower in low cantina energy as it was not supposed to be. I saw people having similar drop with 16 energy for both ship. Not the case when tou move to 12 energy

Cool, so after the galactic chases are both over and players have spent crystals getting 25% less than what they should have. That’s cool.

I mean, if they say the new drop rate is 3% it doesn't make a difference

if they say drop rate is 4% it doesn't make a difference

if they say the drop rate was unintentionally 3%, they should compensate for it, so it doesn't make a difference

Knowing today, or by Friday, doesn't make a difference on the chase farm itself

“Should” is always a fun word. Because I no longer trust CG to actually compensate for things like this.

And it can make a difference, because if you’re shooting for 5* you still need to spend a lot of crystals to get there. If they decide to compensate us with an extra day or two of Chases, or a deposit of 30 Shards, or even just extra crystals - that can drastically change farming plans.

Plus, you know, finding out if CG actually made a mistake or just decided that we could afford to be squeezed a bit tighter.

3 shards short of 5 star staring at an 800 crystal refresh. My drop rate was 3.1% so no answer means I spend the 800 and if I don't get the 3 probably shrug and do the 1299. I'm sorry after settling for 4 stars on the resistance ship it should've been addressed.

Moreover the fact we are force fed the fact we need 2 community managers who won't actually you know manage the larger part of the community is laughable. We have no community managers at this point.

… at that point I’d probably just buy the pack to start with. Guarunteed at least 5 shards, chance of more. But I guess that’s a different question.

Any update on this?

prob not this week either

They done frak’d up and they know it. Trying to circle the wagons internally because they know the shit show that’s going to happen when they admit it. I’m teaching my daughter right now the importance of owning your mistakes because that what leaders do…guess I need to have that conversation with CG because their mommies and daddies never taught them that lesson.
