Kyrotech farm

Hello,

Real question here : I'm getting to the point where I need to get a lot of kyrotech components now and I'm trying to figure out what the best method is.

They come up in the store at 28 crystals per salvage, and I've tried to farm them but with little luck. Usually, less than 1 in 10 sims, which makes it sightly less interesting than the store value.

How do others usually farm those ? Direct from the store, or through farm and refreshes?

Thanks for the help

    The true drop rate when farming is around 20%, so they are definitely cheaper farmed than bought in the stores.

    It all depends on where you’re at with farming etc. At the moment I’m doing 10 sims a day on Armourer (13 shards to go) and Dark Trooper (225 shards to go) but after them I have no other characters or ships to farm. So I usually spend the rest of my energy on Kyrotech farming.


    Are you sure about the 20% droprate? I thought they were supposed 10%? Or is it the g12+ gear pieces that has 10%?


    See the post above. Yes I’m sure.


    Darn it! Wish I didn’t get to know that. Now I feel much less happy with my 15% droprate :D

    Edit: just to be super obvious, the above is a joke. I don’t measure my Kyro droprate.
  • I hate farming kyros, so I use my GAC currency on them and just buy them with crystals.

    G12+ is also around 20%

    Not mine,but it has a good attempt sample and i would say the drop rate is pretty accurate


    I'm going to be pedantic and say that's not what the confidence interval means. It's not that the actual droprate falls in those values; it's that 95% of intervals we construct in that way from different samples will fall around the true droprate.
