Shouldn't drop rates be posted? They are posted for packs. Why not nodes? I mean, it's still money you're spending whether it's crystals or not, so these should really be disclosed.
Naw, cg doesn't have to publish any droprate except packs which they are forced by the law. Any probabilistic deal you do with crystals are not money in terms of the law. Stupid but it's what it is.
6&6 on 31 16e battles. When I first saw the drops were going for 3 weeks I had an inkling that drop rates would be lower than previous chases. Glad I didn't horde energy above the cap. At a three refreshes per day, that looks like around 125 shards per char by the end (roughly halfway to 6*, 40/85).
No, they just dressed up a terd with what they said about these being the same as Galactic chase drop rates, it’s way way worse. Over 1300 energy for just 7 kuiil and 9 ig11
They Didn't say it was the Same as GC Drop Rates, lol

Doja sure assumed so.
Assume ≠ Confirmed
He's an employee. If he says something, it's not like normal speculation.
So just for my data, no aggregation, my results are: 12/31 = 38.7% to drop **something**
19.4% to drop each of them.
that's about 1.2% per energy for each toon. About 2.4% combined.
So even if the intent was the GalChase rate of 4% for **combined** drop rate, I'm still very short. And most of the rest of people seem to be doing no better, with many doing worse, such that I think my estimate is on the high side.
That's my impression, not data, but I'd be very surprised if the average combined drop rate exceeds 2.4%
On the plus side, technically it's still worth it -- waiting for the to show up on a hard node you'll get 1.6 shards per 5 attempts at 50 crystals per 5 attempts, but 75 per 5 if you're doing refreshes. So if pushing on a hard node = 46 crystals per shard, or 45 crystals/shard if your drop rate is 1.667.
100 crystals here gets you 7.5 attempts at 38.7% drop rate, or 2.9 shards per 100 crystals spent.
100 crystals / 2.9 expected shards = 34.5 crystals per expected shard, or 10 crystals less per shard than when you refresh a hard node + buy energy for 50 crystals.
Of course, that's only if my results end up being typical, while at first glance they seem medium-high. Still, I know that I haven't thrown away crystals on an effort with such a bad drop rate it would be cheaper to wait.
Yeah, why are so many people attributing those words to Doja?
When an announcement leads me to a write up without any hint on the writer, I assume it's cg's word on the subject. Or was I supposed to listen to a 90 min podcast?

I didn’t listen either, but I knew it wasn’t Doja writing the article.
Only two **** of the 1.1k energy spent. Pretty low droprates imho. Ig sitting at 21 shards atm and kuill at 20. I am not gonna refresh like crazy for this, Im sure the crystal packs were cheaper in the end.

It Was 20 Mins, not 90 if i'm correct
I don't know, haven't checked and don't think I should need to.
They said it would follow the Galactic Chase rules, which I don't buy AT ALL.
Just spent 900 cantina energy on a 16 node and all I got were 7 kuiil and 9 IG11 shards!
That's abysmal!
19 and 17 on about 730 energy (spent on 16 cost nodes) obviously too small a set to say anything about the true drop rate. But certainly seems like 4% combined drop rate is still a distinct possibility
3 refreshes + 24 left over energy yielded 4 shards of each. 8 total shards is about 2.2% drop rate combined. Small sample size - but judging by some of the posts here, it looks like less than the 4% "expected" (and historical) GChase rates.

I wish I had your luck
Everyone's droprates gonna equalize in the long run
Terrible drop rate
No, no it won’t.

496 energy, spent on 31 attempts on 16nrg node.

Where us JKL
Gotta love those free thing rip offs.....
You are missing that there's already a topic for this.

That article was written by sigsig, not Doja Fett
And he was making an assumption, not stating facts
Only thing that I dislike is forcing us to use Beskar Armor Mando as a feat in the next Galactic Challenge to get good rewards
Wait, what?
Got:
13 IG-11 shards
16 Kuiil shards
I didn’t listen either, but I knew it wasn’t Doja writing the article.

I spent 500 and got like 15 of each
