I have started to collect veterans for 3 months ago. I just reach 6* both of them just before the event release. The drop rate was not good but also not too bad. But when the event released this drop rate suddenly become very poor. Less than %10. I know because of last 3 months I only focus on this 2 veterans. I spend 500 crystals for getting cantina energy almost every last 7 day.
144 + 45 = 189 Cantina Energy Every Day
500 crystals = 100 + 100 + 100 + 200 means 4 times 120 energy = 480
480 + 189 = 669 means 16 enegy per fight = 41 attemp per day.
Believe me, I couldn't get 10 shards somedays. And I believe that if I spend this energy before the event released I was already to reach 7*
If I can reach both veterans 50/100 I was planning to buy 50 shards package to become 7*. But with this drop rate, This is not possible. Thanks for EA saving my money to buy veterans pack.
This really looks like strange to me. This is not the correct way to earn money. Of course, you should earn money but with this drop rate and method, it is not easy for you. From my side, you missed my order just because of drop rate. If can collect 100 shards in 10 days(this was possible number) with this cantina using energy, you'll get my money. I do my best but EA can't sorry.

I'll continue to collect 50 shards for each until end of the event but it looks impossible. If I can't reach I won't buy a pack. This is a basic trade.
Keep farming and you should find the oasis soon. Unfortunately it might be to late.
All while doing 3 refreshes daily. So yeah, it's rng, not foul play.
Soon as they announced the event was randomly coming back I decided to not even bother trying to finish him.
I'll live without Jedi training wheels rey.
You may not like it but it is just luck. I was expecting to take 3 or 4 days to finish mine off and it took just over 1. The previous week it was terrible. Just keep going and hope you get there.
The amount of energy has nothing to do with it. I've bought 3 refreshes a day for the last few days and there hasn't been a single time that I've gotten more than 2 shards per refresh, usually only 1. I've kept track and it's been ever so slightly more worth it than just buying 4 shards at a time. Like maybe a few percentage points. Maybe the drop rate is 30% for other nodes maybe even the same for other people, but I would have to see evidence of that for the vets. My own experience is a maximum of 20%, and don't say that it's anecdotal or anything, I have never gotten anywhere near a 30% rate over the last few months.
