EPISODE l
The RNG Menace
Turmoil has engulfed the forum. The drop rates of shards is in dispute. Hoping to resolve the matter with a preponderance of statistical evidence, benr3600 kenobi has started compiling the data of all his bronzium and farm node drops.
Bronzium: 5 gear; 2 credits; 2 training droids; 9 total
8 gear; 1 shard; 9 total
7 gear; 2 training droids; 1 credit; 1 shard; 11 total
6 gear; 2 shards; 1 credit; 9 total
5 gear; 1 trainind droid; 2 heroes (2* jedi knight guardian, 3* general veers); 8 total
9 gear; 1 shard; 10 total
7 gear; 1 shard; 8 total
So of 64 bronzium pulls, 47 (73%) were gear, 4 (6%) were credits, 5 (8%) were training droids, 6 (9%) were shards and 2 (3%) were heroes.
I'm very interested in the shard drop rates. The people over at the SWGoH Cantina have already analyzed hundreds of Bronzium, but the shard drop rates are new info. Thanks for doing this!
No problem. Hopefully we can get some stats sorted out and we can determine if farming JC is better in cantina vs hard, and if Dookus drop rate is as bad as everyone says it is etc.
wow. I never had such high drop rate for JC in hard mode before that I totally gave up farming there. Mine is about 1/3 for cantina, and 1/5 for hard mode.
I'm only yielding 15-20% for Dooku hard nodes, usually the lower end. Some days I go 0 for 6 on his 2 nodes. Never got anything like 40% for JC in hard nodes either, mine have been around 30% at best. Took a flier on a 4 pack chromium today though and picked up 24 JC shards, now I only need the 500k credits to promote him to 6*.
I've been tracking my Lobot hard node farming and I'm running a little under 15%.
I find the cantina drops for JC are around the 30% that you have but I find the Kylo cantina node a lot more generous. Some days I'm 6 for 10 but 40% is more typical.
Turmoil has engulfed the forum. A civil war between those who believe all drop rates are equal, and those who believe Dooku and Rey drops are shrouded by the dark side of the force, threatens to tear the forum apart. It has been prophesied that benr3600 kenobi will bring balance to the force and end this dispute.
EA/CG have released a secret weapon, a level 70 cap and new hard missions to farm new (but mostly duplicate) shards. The F2P resistance has an uphill battle before them until they can get those coveted Dooku cantina shards, but with patience and perseverance they can overcome this hurdle.
The empire has opened up new trade routes. The coveted Rey, Poe, Dooku and Barriss shards are now available in new nodes. The war may finally be progressing back into favor of the F2P rebels.
The Empire has declared war on F2P rebels by throwing all 7* lvl 70 teams at them halfway through Galactic Wars. The rebellion is in tatters and contemplating throwing the white flag and voting with their money elsewhere. Drastic changes must be made to endure the dark times ahead.
A huge update is looming. Rumors are that Yoda and/or the Emperor Palpatine seen in high level missions is going to be released this week. Jedis will see an uptick to unlock this mystery character.
