Best way to acquire gear

Xyon

Has anyone studied gear drop rates from various stages? I'm assuming the drop rate of gear scales up with the energy required for a stage. Should I attempt to get gear from low or high energy stages?

I think the average ratio wad 33% drop rate over long term.

So it's better to go for the lowest energy requirement stages that drop the gear? Seems counterintuitive.

More expensive = shards, better secondary gear, better training droids, and more credits.

Drop rate is the same, although you can get other gear/mats/credits which might be useful as well.

Best example is Cantina Battles, if you go for Geonosian, shard drop rate is the same than RG's, but at the RG one you are getting purple mats, 7000 credits (instead of 1000), etc.
