Zeta drop rate poor at best

You dont say Winstar!

I get that a lot of players get 2 or 3 drops a week.
However there are some of us that go 2,3, sometimes 4 weeks with out a drop and that hardly seem fair.

I just hope there is some way the mods could eben up the ledger some how.

I average a full crafted zeta every 4-6 weeks just from the challenges. You have really bad luck.

Really?? From the drops? wow if that the case, id change that to you have fantastic good luck... I get probably 1 zeta every week from challenges if i am lucky!

The expected drop rate is 1 per challenge day, so 3 per week, or 7 weeks per zeta.
My actual drop rate (70 mats since the end of may) is almost exactly that

First world problem but I got more Zeta mats than Omegas so I can't use the Zetas anyway.

As i said i get that a lot of players are getting 3 or for Zeta matts per week. I get it. I do.

Again . A large group of players are going 2,3 sometimes 4 weeks without a drop.

@CG_Kozispoon can the Devs please look into this.

That is the nature of random drops. In fact, it's entirely possible that there is someone, somewhere, that has been farming zetas for months and hasn't completed one.

I also never said I agreed with this. The solution is simple though: have a guaranteed drop from the challenge. I also understand this would double the availability, but seeing as we got what, 10 (?) new zeta's this month alone, that might not be excessive.

My average drop rate is 1 mat per week (i.e. 1/6 attempts = 16,66%).
Only two times in the last year I get 2 in a single attempt, quickly compensated by a long list of 0/2.....
Since several weeks I buy 1 zeta mat every two days in the ship store...

I buy ~ 1/3 of all zetas I get and it takes ~2 months to complete one.

Something needs to be done.

At the rate we are going we will never get the chance to experience even half the characters zeta abilities. We just keep getting more and more zeta abilities added and new characters with multiple zeta abilities. I like that we can’t just go slap them down on everyone at once, that would make the game very boring. However, at the rate most players get zeta mats well.......

You are not alone. Ever since about 7 weeks ago I’ve been keeping tabs because I noticed a sharp decrease in zetas, and its coming in at about a whopping 6% drop rate for me. Seems EA just isn’t getting enough money, so we must be punished.
