I imagine that a "farm" node is like a casino slot machine---each machine is programmed to pay out a certain percentage of money that is paid into it. Some people win and some lose, but in the long term that machine's payout will average out exactly how it's programmed to.
We are told that the drop rate for a certain item is 33%. People complain about bad drop rates. Others say it's bad RNG.
Here's my request: either up the drop rates (and keep what they are exactly, a secret) OR state explicitly what drop rate I can expect from each node. Tell me how many "spins" I've had and show me what my drops have been. Transparency.
I prefer the second option.
The problem here is one of perception. Drop rates are PERCEIVED to be too low. It's seriously killing my smiley face. Look:

Drop rates make me want to quit this game.
(And NO I'm never going to pay 1400 crystals for 1 piece)
For other pieces of gear it seems about 50%.
It's a freemium game so I expect them to make things very frustrating so players spend more money.
If it wasn't for bluestacks I likely wouldn't even play this game. So much grinding and farming and putting battles on auto to gear up characters takes up all the time in this game. It's just doing the same battles of killing everyone half your level over and over to get gear. I don't have the patience to do this on my phone.
Yeah
Actually no; the more expensive nodes have lower drop rates. Doesn't make a great deal of sense huh? Or does it...?
Same here bruddah...same here
They nerf current toons that people gravitate towards. Aayla has taken me nearly 3months to level from Cantina & she was 4☆ when I started. Im not kidding. Wedge & JKA have both been atop this trend's list of ridiculously slow farms. Its evidently EA/Capital's thing now. Evidence to the contrary is when they heavily promoted Lando drops. You could literally farm him start to fin in under 2months. They did this because they wanted players to be ready for Scoundrel promotions back in the summer. Its killing me right now, which tells me Aayla is the next meta in some way or another. Her super slow drops are the same across the board w/ friends & guildmates. Im literally getting 1 shard a day in most cases. Its soooo terrible.
I realize this is an older post, but I wanted to make this point for future readers.
