Still no furnace in shipments since it was added

warmonkey

So like when should I expect one to show up? I have gotten ZERO furnaces yet others have got many, or have got so much they don't need them anymore.

I love the game but this is getting old.

It's weird like that. I seem to get furnaces and Rey shards daily. I would rather have JE shards, and I cant affordable the furnaces.

Even in shipments, RNG is a factor...

This is indeed a RNG game! Game on!

I haven't seen rey in guild shipments in 4 or 5 days. It's cool though since mine is 7*

You know, I don't want to sound like the crazy conspiracy theory guy, but what if the furnace shows up in shipments consistently until you buy it? That would make at least a little sense. It's there to taunt you. "Buy me!" After 2 weeks you buy it, and it becomes random after that. They want everyone to buy the first one, but after that they become scarce so whales don't load up.

It's weird I saw three within the first couple days after the update. Passed on the first one and got two the following day back to back.

Haven't seen one since. Feels like they're blocked from my shipments now.

Some of you guys must have really horrible luck.. I've seen 4 in the past week from shipments. They seem to pop up every two or so days for me.

warmonkey

I haven't seen one in my shipments ever. Not a single one. Got real excited the other day until I realized it was just a mk4.

Is there some kind of bug that won't put furnaces in some peoples shipments?

Another refresh just went by without one in it.

You still crying over there?

BentWookiee

I went two weeks without seeing one.. now I have seen 4 in the last 3 refreshes. The RNG is real.
I kind of dread seeing another one.. because, crystals.

Are you buying shipment refreshes? The first two are worth it for the gear pieces that cost credits. That's 2 more chances daily at seeing a furnace.

It seems no one knows how it works since the devs won't comment on it.

Since so many people are spending a lot of crystals on refreshes, it would be nice if they disclosed exactly what people are gambling on. A 1/50 chance at seeing a furnace? 1/100? Different chances for iOS and Android?

No one knows. It's like playing the lottery without knowing the odds when even lottery tickets have the odds printed on the back.

I looked everyday for 2 weeks with no resheshes. I finally got one yesterday.

And it's still easier to save crystals from arena and wait for mk5 furnace to show up with out refreshes rather than farm one from raids.

Chef5

I got my first furnace in the shop after refreshing for a week, after the first purchase they start showing up more often in the shop after daily refreshes.

pac0naut

I'm not blowing crystals on refreshes. I've seen exactly 3 and I've purchased 2. I'm not sure how many have actually showed up since one of the refreshes for me is between the hours of midnight and like 5 or 6AM. I'm in bed at that time and no, I'm not staying up or waking up early to check shipments. Forget that.

Now, with everyone posting this, this becomes somewhat of a paradox. A lot of the forum cries about the company being greedy, yet these furnaces A: aren't cheap and B: really rare. If it was pure greed, wouldn't they double down on the drop rate of furnaces? That makes the most sense, since I've spent actual money to get them each time I've purchased them.

Re-install.

I actually tried reinstalling last week after reading a post about how many some people were finding thinking my client was messed up.

ShaolinPunk

You check after every clocked refresh, and you haven't seen a single one?

That is crazy bad luck or something. Open a ticket with support.

Corndog131

I was hoping you'd get one today. This is just ridiculous. It really makes the game not fun when you can't advance because of luck.

EM650

We have similar situations in our guild.

2 people never got furnaces, but just got their 1st last weekend.

I got 2 initially, but have not received Any since that day.

WildWest1974

I've only seen one, and I bought it.

Gonzalo1495

I've seen 4, and bought 3.

Crazy! I seen like, I dunno 5+ and bought none. Wish I could pass them to Warmonkey.

4 and saw 2 in one day ...2 days ago But had a 10 day dry streak :c

Yudoka

I bought my first one a few days ago and gave it to IG-86 to take him to tier IX and had one from pre-crafting which I gave to RG. Boy is it a HUGE difference. Just hitting that tier upgrade button gave RG effectively 9k more health not to mention whatever else it bumped, and my 86 is now one-shooting pig guards on tier 5 raids just off his basic attack.

warmonkey

Man this is getting old. Just got another refresh without one.

Good news is I just got the 5 stack of mk10 holo lens in guild shipments which will allow me to craft a furnace. So ONLY need 5 more to advance my toons.

ShaolinPunk

(applause)

Sorry you been having such rough lucks.

warmonkey

Anyone have any furnaces in shipments this morning? Cause I don't.

RG doesn't use a furnace. You must mean droid caller and I need one bad.
