Emo Bastilla shard drops falling off?

I was crushing it with Bastilla farming since release, but ever since I hit 5* with her, now I'm getting 1-3 shards out of 24 runs. I swear this happens almost every time we get closer to an event, or when I get past 5*.

Anyone else notice this?

    I wasn’t seeing drop rate conspiracy threads for ages, until people started getting Bastilla to 5*.

    Now I’m seeing 1-3 of these threads every 24 hours.

    I swear, this happens every time we get a new toon.

    Anyone else notice this?

    (A guild mate already has her 7*, with only 24 shards from crystal purchases)

    This is like that “Logray problem” thread, it’s all a conspiracy, it’s just not going your way right now

    So you started off with above-average results, then started getting below-average results? Seems like everything is fine. I am tired of seeing three of these threads a week of people thinking that CG is conspiring against them. I mean, they probably are, but not by changing drop rates.

    Yeh, ill admit ive been having bad luck with Bastilla too. But occasionally I do also get good times, and in all honesty its probably just confirmation bias. I finished Canderous early compared to a lot of other people

    Drop rate of drop rate topics is increasing. It will reach a peak during the DS Revan/Malak event and start to disappear afterwards.

    I’m not claiming conspiracy. It’s somethinrg that I’ve experienced and I was asking if others have experienced it as well.

    Relax.

    Can you post your data for all pulls up to where you are now so we can see the drop off?

    I haven't been tracking it (writing it down) daily, is there anyway I can go back and pull it?

    I've been at 99/100 for two days and after 48 tries, but I still call it bad luck

    No. I'm just wondering how you know there has been a drop without recorded data?

    That's not bad luck, that is ridiculous.

    If my math is right, I'm at around a 30% drop rate on Bastila, which is only 3% below average. My drop rate didn't noticeably change when I got her to 5 stars.

    I was getting 30-40% drop rate on average (so it seemed), but now closer to the 5-10% drop rate.

    I tracked my drops for her and Canderous til 7*. Both were +/-1% of 33. This has been my experience with every single toon since I started tracking my drops. YMMV, but I doubt it.
