Issue with shards and gear for double drops

Anyone noticed farming certain gear or character nodes (dtp and enoch for me) that they dont get the tag as “bonus” and also drop horrible rates compared to everything else?
kyro shocks showed it and dropped plenty, another gear piece didnt and showed 2

 

dtp and enoch dropped 2, 2 and 4 shards not showing the word bonus, while finn on the enoch node showed bonus and dropped 8, 12 and 12

feels broken or just me?

    Yes our guild is reporting exactly this. 

    it seems the drops are lower frequency which can’t double if there are none. 

    also some of drops don’t mathematically makes sense. 

    see below  to do the cantina battle  I did 2 battles, there are 3 options:

    1. No signal data dropped = 0 gained (0x2)
    2. 1 signal data dropped = 4 gained (1x2)
    3. 2 signal data dropped = 8 gained (2x2)

    Battle S-F shows 4 data for the bonus.

    So then how did I get 6?! The options for 2 battles should be 0, 4 or 8 according to drop  it’s mathematically impossible unless I earned 1.5 data both times  or 1 earn of 3 signal data which doubled to 6. I have like 5 examples of this happening in various energy battles

      Signal Data always lists the maximum possible drops. Normal this is 0, 1 or 2. During Double Drops it's 0, 2 or 4. 6 is definitely a possible result from two battles.

  • I came here to post about this same problem. I just farmed about 800 energy on kyros and I didn't receive any "bonus" kyros in any of that energy spent.

  • Everyone in this thread is using the Find Flow when farming. The reason why you aren't seeing "Bonus" on the rewards for that item/character is because the "X/Y Collected" visual overrides the "Bonus" one. You are still getting the bonus drops. You can confirm this yourself by going to the node and farming it directly, where you will see the "Bonus" visual. Examples above. In the case of the Enoch poster, Finn shows as Bonus because you aren't looking for him, so he doesn't get the Collected visual.
