You can buy them in shipments with cantina credits, and you can refresh cantina energy for 100 crystals. It wasn't meant to be easy but it isn't that hard imo.
I get where you coming from but when it's showing possible rewards are 3 different types of ability material and after 5 or 6 battles and not getting any. Its just a letdown.
This bothered me too until i unlocked Galactic Wars. that drops everything I need and i find that i'm farming shards and store currency more from Cantina than ability mats. It's just a nice bonus once in a while to get a mat
Just... do your galatic war and the challenge for ability mats, it's like 3x a week, usually you fully max the skill of a char in roughly a week after hitting 40, not counting the bugged event that wonderfully drops ability mats as well
