do you think we wouldn't notice?

Double drops??( If you’re just going to ‘double’ drops whilst quartering the drop rate, don’t even bother.

Standard EA nonsense.

swgohfan29

Standard bad luck. Move along

How are you sure they quartered the drop rate? 3 sims is not a large enough sample size to justify so, neither is 20 sims.

Drop rates did not change

Small sample size.

The enemy of an educated statistical analysis.

If you don’t think they mess with the drop rates to make more money when they do these events, I’m not sure you ever took your tin foil hat off in the first place

And yet I got 1 reinforcement ability out of 2 sims the other day. Cantina 6A 50% drop rate confirmed.

CG didn't think I'd notice, but I'm wily like that.

Also, double drops started like 12 hours ago, and no one has complained about it yet. So even if they did, no one noticed.

What is more likely

1. You got Bad RNG
2. CG Nerfed the drop rate, and the entire forum, of which 70% is attacking CG over ships 2.0 decided to ignore a decrease in drop rate.

My drop rates today are legit. Which is nice because yesterday I went 0-24 on Holdo, MT, and Sion.

I have a guildie who's gotten 80 vet shards today.

This. People have done research and tracked data during double drop events. The drop rates are unchanged as compared to "normal".

If you do think they do mess with the drop rates during the double drops, maybe your whole head is made out of tin foil.

I simmed 20 Cantina battles today and got 16 Acolyte shards. **** CG for messing with the drop rates.

Those who boast about " small sample size " must be unwilling to admit that CG is about making money first and foremost. CG has been pulling tricks ever since the game was released and lowering drop rates during double drops seems right up their ally

Ah yes, the “I have no evidence but it feels right” argument. Nice.

I track my drop rates during double drops because I’m a crazy person and I’m pulling at 45% right now not including the extra shards. Guess CG just likes me more than you

But one look at this guy's comments in other threads will very quickly reveal he readily admits that CG is about making money first and foremost

Boast about small sample size? Since when is it boasting to point out something factual?
