Shards drop rates

Hey guys
So for the quick story, I stopped playing for like a year, and when I was back i just realized i couldnt catch up on the others in the arena, so i just created a new account
Problem is, i find incredibly long to farm character shards from nodes, especially LS and DS ones as it's limited to 5 a day. For instance, i SIMed 5x the hard node giving JC shards, it only gave me 1 and ive gotta wait for day reset to try again. Another example, for Hera/Ezra/Lando, i could SIM the nodes 10x it usually gives me less than 5, very rarely beyond 7, and one lucky time, 10.
It's really frustrating, and so i was wondering if anybody had any tip for that, or even knows what are the drop rates for more accuracy. Thanks a lot

Not really. Over the long run, I’ve pretty consistently seen a 1-in-3 drop rate. Since each battle is independently calculated, though, you can (will) see periods where you get no shards, followed by periods where you get a bunch of shards. It’s all about long term resource management (think weeks, months, not days).
that's just bologne.
Are you called Cinderella or ? Just go try your RNG in Normal battle modes for S.cuffs, S.guns, Holos... You will see what I meant... If you still say so , You need a brain surgery... Because early game statistics showed as 1/3- 1/4 droprates... Currently it is reduced to 1/5 to 1/7 ( depends on your sources)
wow, haha.
Well, we're talking about shard droprates here. So maybe keep that in mind when you start throwing insults around.

again I am taking about "overall"
This game is a grind. Its a marathon and nothing comes quick. The choice to start over is a hard one, but in the long run it will put you in a better position for area which is the lifeblood of any player.
i also call bologne on overall as in including gear.
lies !
well, only their food
If you sim 1 at a time, the average drop rate for character shards is 30-33%.
If you sim 2 at a time, the average drop rate for character shards is 30-33%.
If you sim 10 at a time, the average drop rate for character shards is 30-33%.
If you sim 100 at a time, the average drop rate for character shards is 30-33%.
I think you see my point. The drop rate for character shards does not change, regardless as to the number of sims you do at once. People that have spent months tracking data have borne that out. Please don't disregard their hard work based on anecdotal "evidence".
In fact, the shard drop rate for characters is constant across all nodes.

I beat the REAL T7 Yoda (not the nerfed one) and did so before mods were there to help
