Please OFFER AT LEAST one zeta mat each time we do Ship Mat Challenge
Hi there,
I’ve gotten about 2-3 zeta materials out of a possible 40 zetas in the last 20 tries of the ship material challenge. ALL of my guild friends and friends in other guilds are DEMANDING we get a minimum of one zeta each time we do a ship material challenge because we can’t progress with farming our characters with this low of a drop rate. Please help us and create some good will among your players by helping us to progress in a normal way by offering 1 zeta minimum!

You do know you can buy them with fleet currency right?
If you think of the challenges as your main method of acquiring them, you're setting yourself for the constant disappoint and frustrations you're feeling currently because we all go on Zeta dry spells where we go a week or two without getting one.
The truth is there are a lot of people who don’t have all ships maxed out and therefore need that fleet currency to farm ships currently. That’s why we have to rely on the material challenge, which has only given me 3-4 out of about 20 tries. It’s not a fair drop rate and will take years to farm all the major zetas for all the characters with just that and TW rewards.
Regardless, farm your fleet up to 7* and climb the ranks, then start buying the zetas.
Bonus: and at least ONE full Carbanti each time we do a raid!!
*eye-roll*
Not abfair drop rate? What's a fair drop rate? Everyone has the same rate.
Zetas are supposed to be had to get and rare. That's why they are Zetas.
And your demands are logical and reasonable? Lol I think not.
Well buddy the thing is everyone has had to deal with the same drop rate from the lowest F2P players to the biggest Krakens. So your DEMAND to get more zetas doesnt carry a lot of weight.
Also between territory wars and now the daily login changes the devs have been making them more accessible over time.
Exactly.
just pick and farm the right ships. if you are top 200 (100-200) you can still get 1200 a day iirc. I was in the same boat as you and once I farmed the ships the currency started to flow in. It makes getting zero from challenges a little less painful lol. So I agree with @ARougeRogue.

Why does everyone keep saying I’m making a DEMAND on EA, as if they are some sort of victim of a highly paying customer asking for a fair drop rate on zetas? Do people who make demands use the word “Please?”
Anyways, y’all make it sound like EA doesn’t care about their players’ concerns and you are representing them as just not caring at all and as being a victim of me, a single player.
You literally wrote that you are demanding in capital in your first post.
probably bc you mentioned all your friends demanding zetas, your request for at least one zeta minimum, you thinking the rng we all have to deal with is somehow not normal, etc. I have no idea what the "ea is a victim" thing is, fwiw.
Regardless of whether it comes across as a demand, look, all of us wish we had more zetas. and more carbantis, and more stun guns, and traya immed, etc. It is what it is.
'Nuff said!
I wrote that all of my guild friends and friends in other guilds are demanding. They're letting me know they are tired of the grind and yes some are leaving the game. I guess y'all don't care and I guess EA doesn't care. I can mention account names if someone even cares.
I was only replying to your question as to why people are saying you're making a demand.
But since you're curious, I honestly don't care either.
EA/CG does seem to care a little since they're now giving out Zeta mats for daily login.
I know it's late and well, the thread was necro'ed anyway. I counted it for exactly 50 challenge days. Ended up at 52 zetas. I'll assume it's 1 per challenge day. @Rebel_yell
Nice. That means I’m due for slightly better RNG!
It would be awesome to see you data collected to back that statement.
Being that they there is no way to buy them, this drop rate effects everyone equally.
