After 379 attempts my guild has received 124 shards.

32.72% of 9 attempts per day is 2.94 shards.

So basically a 1/3 drop rate.

Just thought it might interest someone.

    Yes, thanks for that. I m farming her.

    I think all hard shards are 1/3

    I have her and am finally almost at the 7 star but she seems worth it. I fare well between her high attack and foresight

    Thanks for sharing that.

    Does that mean one has to SIM the Hard Nodes 990 times to get a 7*?

    The fixed payout times are the worst part of this game and makes it absolutely family-unfriendly.

    Yep. Energy costs are 12,16 and 20.

    So 330 x 12 + 330 x 16 + 330 x 20 = 15840 energy to farm her.

    Good as always @cosmicturtle333

    I had noticed it, yet.. This is the demonstration.
    Mine is on 3/85 (5* yesterday, yesss! :smiley: )
    Very slowly farm with 18 attemps per day, too

    Well farmed GS, Acolyte, JC, Talia and Barriss ... all together were at 34%, didnt look at each char so far.

    If I do the normal daily limit of 3 times per Node, it will take 110 days.

    Can you help with a calculation, how many Crystals needed if I want to 7* her in 55 days?

    To do it in 55 days, that's 1 refresh per Node, so 3 Nodes will be 150 Crystals per day. I'd need 288 Energy for 1 day on Rey only, that's 3 Energy Refreshes 50+50+100, so in total I need to spend 350 Crystals per day if I want to get her in 55 days? Correct?

    Nice. I haven't calculated personally but my observations also say that it is 1 to 3.

    Yeah. That's correct.

    That's a whopping 19,250 Crystals worth, $180.

    Or should I instead pull 6 times of 8x Chromium

    I kinda want Leia, but Rey is good too, even 6 x Chromium pulls won't get her to useable tier.

    Sighs

    you get 2x 120 + 3x 45 = 375 energy per day, so if you focus on Rey only, you have to refresh the 3 nodes only (3x 50 energy)

    Hard to keep track of the Energy refill because I use them as and when available.

    What's the cost for the 3rd Node refresh? 100 Crystals?

    35/126 for me since i started tracking. Roughly 27% :(

    I've never kept track of my drops. Might get more frustrating that way lol. But I just unlocked her at 4* a couple hours ago. Still a long way to go til she's arena ready though

    Still 59 days left to 7* her :/ however the RNG owes me big time on Ray, only 3 times since December 17th had I gotten over 1/3 rate on her, last time was the day after I mentioned it on the forum, however on my daily shard hunt(Ray, Anakin, RG, FOTP, Fives, EE, FOST, HRS) I'm getting +40% in the big picture :)

    It goes through lows and highs for me.. not too unusual to see a week of low returns.. i.e. around 0 to 2 shards a day from nine nodes.. and then you get like a super good streak of 3-6 shards from those nine nodes per day over several days.. and it'll fluctuate between the two...

    All I know it's not uncommon to see no drops for four days straight on nine attempts in a day

    Game used to be fun when it wasn't a grind... if I wanted a grind I would have went and played old school Everquest or some Korean MMO!

    Do you do all their nodes? That has to be like 1000 energy/day :open_mouth:

    I've been keeping track for chirpa as well. ...I'll post once we get close to the same attempts to compare. (Since his gear is a nightmare similar to Rey's)

    768 energy
    I use energy refresh 50-50-100-100-100 = 600 energy plus we get 135 in bonus energy and the time refresh gives 240 a day in all 975 energy, giving 207 energy for gear farming

    My guild is tracking everything in a large, unorganized note on line, to tally everything up its easier to use pen and paper.

    Nice work :)

    Note to reach 330 successful attempts this will have a Negative Binomial Distribution. So you expect to have 660 attempts to farm her to 7* (not 990). Here's a quick table of the probability (as a decimal) vs number of attempts (or fewer):
    0.05 589
    0.10 605
    0.15 615
    0.20 623
    0.25 631
    0.30 637
    0.35 643
    0.40 649
    0.45 655
    0.50 660
    0.55 666
    0.60 671
    0.65 677
    0.70 684
    0.75 691
    0.80 698
    0.85 707
    0.90 719
    0.95 736
    0.99 768

    Umm no.

    It's a 1 in 3 chance of a shard drop. You need 330 shards. 330 x 3 = 990.

    Nice graph, but you're wrong.
