Omega reward in Cantina Stage 8 Battles

PepsiAddict

Cantina Battles 8-A through 8-G all say an Omega piece is a possible reward, but I have NEVER gotten one. And I farm a lot in Cantina nodes.
Is it a glitch that it is listed, or am I just somehow that unlucky?

I got one once. Just once.

The drop rate is very low. But I have seen them. I even took a picture because it shocked me when it happened:

kalidor

In farming the vets, sith trooper, deathtrooper, and about half of sith assassin, all almost from 3*, I've gotten 5. The drop rate is very, very low.

DaPowerfulJedi

I think of them as a little bonus. Only ever gotten 2 or 3 after farming both vets to 7 stars.

It's a bit like farming reinforcement mats in fleet. Prepare to spend a lot of crystals on energy refreshes if you urgently need a bunch.

I've gotten 10 or 15 of those in 20 months now. And i dont farm 16 energy that often. I get omegas from gw thrice a month on average. As you can see, those are way above the norm.

Although, i do get omegas less frequently from the challenges(both ships and normal) than average. So yea, its rng.

I think I've gotten about 5. You're probably more likely to get one from the Galactic War.

It’s been a while since I paid attention to this, but my drop was something like 1 per character. In other, each time I would work a character all the way to 7*, I would get 1 in the process.

It happens. Just very very rare

Thanks for confirmation all. Just bad luck on my end

Huatimus

Gotten like 10 of them from my entire swgoh lifetime

PetitEtreMalfaisant

very very very low.
I farmed the 2 vets (Han & Chewie), I remember having 1 omega; can't remember having a 2nd

I can see why. 3 vet chewie shards in 7 sims?! Voodoo magic right there

Palanthian

The drop rate is probably less than 1% on this one, I’ve had 2 in the lifetime of the game, and I farm that node every day.

For me 2 times in more than 3 years...

Cripes everyone! At such a stupid low rate I almost have to ask why do they bother offering it?

Personally, I just tell myself that I’m farming for the character and the omegas are a bonus. But, I bet others see the omegas and farm the nodes not realizing it’s just a waste of energy to try to get omegas this way.

Botzone1

Ive only gotten 1 from 5 characters farmed

DarkstarSunrise

I have farmed every single cantina toon to 7*, played for years, never once got an omega.

Jarvind

I honestly can't remember ever getting an omega from a Cantina battle. I probably have once or twice and just didn't notice, but yeah, it's vanishingly rare. I just don't worry about it and if I happen to get one I'll be pleasantly surprised.

Unfortunately I finished the last Cantina farm last week, so have nothing better to farm for.

I never knew that but I have never received one either or I would have zero crystals bc I would definitely try again and again.

That almost sounded impressive.

You should farm 3-F instead (Kylo Unmasked & Tie Silencer Node) at least you'll get more Shard Shop Tokens that way

Good call. I may just do that.

Next thing your going to say is you've never gotten 4 zeta mats in a day or a 10 mil credit heist ever.

Those I’ve actually done. And on more than one occasion. Those two things I understand are rare. But at least I know they are possible.
For me: I’ve never gotten an omega from any Cantina farm. I wanted to confirm that it IS indeed possible, and the community confirmed it.
Try to keep up.
