Anyone seen Vader in the fleet store lately?

BSwoody87

It's been a good week and a half since I've seen Vader shards in the fleet store. Has he been replaced?

Tatebomb

He's still there. Looking at him in there now actually.

Dreislao

It always makes me chuckle when people ask this. As far as I'm aware additions and removals are always documented and known in advance.

Mrjenkins

He's there more than grevious. Stop whining

I saw him and his TIE this morning. It's all RNG. lol

Let me guess...you're real close to upgrading Vader to another star level. That would explain the week and a half absence.

Correct. And to the other posters on here I'm not whining. Just asking if anyone else had seen him recently. Good grief chill.

stavrik

RancorPackGuild

Mrjenkins

FieldL

Yes. A lot more frequently since I maxed him out.

Thelegend27

Fixed your post for you.

He's been in my Fleet store practically every other day since I 7-starred him (prior to that he would hardly ever show up).

Probably about the same as it always does. But it'll probably seem like longer - so you might even start a thread about it.

Woodroward

I saw him in there about 2 weeks ago. He got noticed shoplifting a spoiler and ran out.

Don't think he'll be back.

Mrjenkins

There now for me.. waiting on my last grevious to unlock

Naturally. The minute that you stop wanting or needing his shards, he starts showing up like an uninvited house guest who refuses to leave.

Dude....you have to chime in about "confirmation bias" every time you see a comment about something weird with the algorithm. We get it.

There's probably a mechanic then can tell when you are about to level up a character thus preventing it showing up from the store. Cg has been quoted saying they want to frustrate players into buying crystals. People who don't believe this is a possibility are the same people who believe everything their government tells them.

Haven't had Vader disappear for too terribly long, but Jyn suddenly has when I only needed 5 shards to 6 star her.... Guild store, but same idea. There has to be some code that decreases odds before you get the last bits. It happens so often.

I've never experienced anything like what you're suggesting. But maybe thats cause im a sheep. But wait... i've never spent money on the game... hmmmm... the plot thickens...

He wasn't whining.

osamamatix

when i was just 5 shards away from 7star'ing him i didnt see him for 3.5 weeks
then as soon as i finally got the last 5 shards hes in there almost every day now lol

but yeah rng

Tenebris_Fidem

its random - rng of sorts. check the shard shop too, he pops out there every now & then.

but, dont just rely on the shipments & shard shop. get to working on those achievements - you have better chances of getting more vader shards there + the added benefit of other bonuses.

Mrjenkins

Well I waited 4 days. Got grevious. So ya if ur on regularly I don't c 2 week waits happening

It does happen sometimes. Right before I 6 starred Jawa Engineer he vanished from the Guild Store for 15 days, and believe me I checked and double checked every time it refreshed.

The Fleet store works the same way as the guild store: refreshes at the same time and has random things available.

Mrjenkins

Guess I got lucky. Or maybe it'll b harder to get him after hopefully soon rework

Asking a question is considered "whining" on these forums. Making a counter point is considered "shouting down" as well. I figure they are just weak in the force, or focusing on the Dark Side. “A Jedi uses the Force for knowledge and defense, never for attack.”

I see Vader in Fleet about every 2-3 days, same with his ship. More often then Grevious, for sure.

Juex777

He came through yesterday. Still waiting on Jyn who was rhythmically regular until I only needed 5 shards to reach 6 stars.(already had her unlocked before she became farmable) Totally disappeared..... It's getting silly.
