Abysmal drop rate.

Every day it seems the drop rates are worse. Today I've simmed 20 battles in a row with a 0% ZERO PERCENT drop. This is getting absolutely ridiculous.

    Yup! I just spent 120 energy on 0 purples(yet again). Just to see how bad multi sim is. I guess it's working as intended.

    That is, until we get a good drop. Then it starts again. You'll get stuff. Energy is free.

    Energy is free unless you used refreshes, and I'm not agreeing that .33% should be the rate . Especially when you go like 1 in 10 for what you want daily.

    Yeah RNG is the heart of these games. Somedays you get lucks, some days you don't. I'd love a minimum of 33% haha.

    My drop rate is less than 10% daily on the gear I want. It's unbelievable. They are so money hungry it's so infuriating how hard they make the game to make you spend money

    This game is like a slot machine now. With horrible odds. I hate getting 3* mods when spending energy on tier lll challenges for a well deserved 5*.
    I'm sure they are looking at a way to improve this because I know so many people have been quitting the game because of issues like this one. I want the game to stick around because I still enjoy it. I'm trying to live with the flaws and frustrations of these changes.
    I'm looking forward to the new Raid !!!
    That's a positive

    Everyone is in the same boat. The only real problem this great game has is the price tag. Make it more affordable and the drop rates won't be so painful. For $99.99 we should get 50,000 crystals. It will probably never happen, but it would be nice.

    I'd take 33% anyday compare to status quo. The days when I get 3 Aayla/Chirpa shards apiece in Cantina, I feel like yelling outloud "I'm going to Disneyland." Lol.

    This is one of the main reasons why there was much hate for mods at the start. It took forever to get that 50 pieces of salvage gear... Just wait until you guys see the golden gear. It's downright dumb from what can be seen on swgoh.gg

    I'm not a conspiracy theorist (or AM I?) but I swear to gawd drop rates are worse when you multi-sim. I have nothing but my own ire as evidence (besides EA being a scandalous, manipulative, evil corporation) but seriously, they're farming us!

    It's still pending but does give you a glimpse at the wall that's up ahead beyond level 80.

    Out of 5 full refreshes this week I've gotten about 3 mods. Please don't tell me drop rate is WAI.
    Meanwhile, down on the farm....

    Fixed that for you.

    Don't multi-sim. Ever. I've sim'd 10+ a few times and never gotten more than 1 Mod. Yet if I just sim one at a time, I feel like the drop rate is about 1/3. Multi-sim is either bugged, or a scam. Just don't do it.

    I did a full refresh today. Sim 1 by 1. Got 1 mod for the whole thing.

    I'm going to go ahead and say that the numbers might be right, but the components are clearly not. Just like when they introduced Raid gear and then later changed the component names. For instance, I'm sure the Mk 7 Furnace is going to require 80x Mk 7 Furnace Salvage, not 80x Mk 7 Detonator Salvage.

    That's just bad luck then. I'm getting much better than that. My "don't multi-sim" theory might just be the result of bad luck as well. But seems consistent. Enough so that I feel it warranted to warn people.

    If their primary metric is how much time we are playing, how about this:
    If we battle manually, give us a 75% drop rate.
    Auto battle gets 66%
    Takes about 5 min per battle manually, going through 15-20 will take an hour-90min, but then people will actually play more as they gear up faster.

    Sometimes drops are good, sometimes not. I simmed 10 cantina battles today and got 6 Aayla shards. Then I simmed 12 hard battles for Rey and Ashoka shards and got 1.

    I wish I had that luck with aayla. 12 = 3 for me daily
