Last four days drop rates have been phenomenal. Two sets of blow dryers and various other ten price gear sets in 24 refreshes ( that's my best calculation anyway). I know, I know rng!!! I've never had that kind of luck before

    I haven't seen the gear drop rates improve, but my character shard drop rates have been exceptional on hard nodes. I have assumed it was random luck, but maybe not...

    It's all RNG. Two days ago I spent nearly 300 energy without getting a single purple. Then I got 6 purples in a row.

    I've experienced the low drop rates and have been completely frustrated. I remember Trying to get cuffs for qui gonn. Took an entire week with four refreshes a day to complete. This was definately not that. It was like a drop every other spin. I'll take it as rng since no one else is experiencing the same.

    There's also a thread about drop rates being nerfed....which I think makes it clear that they are constant and people are just at different ends of the RNG. But since since this is the forums, please, don't let me (or logic, or facts) stand in the way of superstition, confirmation bias or conspiracy theories. Have fun. :)

    Ditto - 6 purple Mk8 Blastek prototypes in a row last night. I almost dropped my tablet.

    Confirmed. Drop rates are increasing/decreasing/staying the same. I am 100% sure of these findings.

    Not sure if accurate. Conspiracy theory unclear.

    Ive noticed more shards on hard nodes as of late but likely just balancing from previous crappy runs of rng luck

    Sometimes I get 6 shards out of 6 tries, and then 0/0 so its all RNG.

    And gear always get garbage or no the one I need, so I stop caring on getting them fast I just habe a lot of patience now

    Not at all. I'm going for those horrible Mk II bacta gel things for the fourth time in a row and it's worse than ever. Just went through an entire refresh and didn't get one. They've been the hardest gear items to get for me.

    I've noticed a huge increase on the Rey and RG nodes. I've been averaging 3-4 a day out of 9 over the pat week or so, whereas before it was at 1 if I was lucky. I've also had a 6/6 on the RG nodes recently. The dooku node in cantina also picked up and I've since finished him. I'm sure this is me going through a good patch right now, I can tell I'll get terrible RNG coming may way soon. :s I'm dreading when that happens. :D

    So far today I think I had a 6/6 on GS in Cantina. I was shocked. RG was being temperamental.

    My GS farm wasn't great today. 7/36. That's the lowest rate I've had for him on both accounts. I'm on 8/65 now.
