    It's baffling that after all this time you still don't have realistic expectations.
    Getting top3 in the HRS often puts you so far ahead of the majority of players in terms of rewards, even if you get "bad" rewards like the ones shared in the OP. Yet you still feel like you're getting the raw end of the stick.. amazing.

    With rewards like the ones in the picture I'm getting nowhere ahead anyone. Not getting a full piece at least 50% of the time for top 3 is ridiculous to say the least, the raid is only available twice a week, it's not like it's rancor or something.

    You should run the HSR on wednesdays. That's when the good stuff drops.

    Look, man... the same thing happened over and over in PIT and HAAT. Sometimes being #1 doesn't mean you'll get the most desirable rewards. But your rewards are technically consistent with what #1 in HSTR should get. Sure, it's frustrating and annoying but it isn't unfair. Nothing nefarious took place.

    truly baffling.
    But by all means, don't start having realistic expectations and keep getting dissapointed, infuriated or whatever you're feeling when you're typing these complaints. I'll keep reading them because it's mildly entertaining.

    Unrealistic expectations are like 90% of the complaints on this forum.

    So it's unrealistic to expect more than 1 full piece in 5 raids of getting 1st?

    OP, perhaps you should give solitaire a try. Maybe it would be less infuriating for you?

    What's your problem dude, I'm 1 piece in 5 raids 1st place, if I'm not justified for feeling this way then idk what I'm supposed to do. You're starting to become annoying, not everyone has the ability to not care about their rewards, and they shouldn't have to. Props to you for having the **** attitude but acknowledge that not all people are made this way.

    Not all people have to make constant threads about every part of the game they hate, which in your case seems to be every part of the game. It's a never-ending barrage of complaint threads, each time something new somehow. Someone who hates so much of the game would be better off playing a different one. It's very simple logic.

    Also this. And there's nothing wrong with that. But why keep banging your head into the wall? Find something softer to bang it into and it won't hurt as much.

    At this point does it really even matter? You can have both on there.

    Idk who that is, no I'm not, I guess everyone who complains is the same person, makes it easier to demonize them

    That's not even remotely the same as what you were saying in the comment i quoted:

    Seems like it doesn't even matter how much the game gives you, you always feel shafted and you always want more.

    I'm flabbergasted.

    I got trash rewards for the amount of effort that I put into them considering that with 1/3 of the effort I could have gotten better.

    Welcome to socialism. I finish 10th regularly and get full pieces each time.

    The raid runs 2 times a week, having 50% chance to get a full piece by placing top 3 is one piece a week on average. How is this not reasonable considering that to place first you need to spend nearly 1 hour, some times more depending on the guild.

    Yup, this is another one of them patents to give you the illusion that by placing top 3 you'll get better rewards but actually throttle your progress by giving you less.

    3+ year player and I see better gear drops outside of rank 3. Several of my guild members that have been playing for years have the same luck as me, it's always better if we stay out of top 3. That's RNG at it's finest right there lol

    I envy the privileged journey you must have had to this point if you consider a 20% drop rate on completed pieces infuriating.

    My rule is that if you mention RNG too many times then it's no longer RNG. I'm keeping my eyes and ears open for the next video revealing a patent that's designed to give less rewards for finishing high to pace those who have the better raid squads... It's sad we can't even trust the devs to be honest with us. 1 in 5 is just plain wrong. Let alone not giving me the components for the furnace since Padme event! Like since Padme event I'm sitting at 0 components if you can believe that...

    For rank 1 yes it is. Everyone in these comments seems to leave out the 5 times in a row rank 1, conveniently they seem to not care about the fact that I'm doing over 50 million damage and spending over an hour raiding for those numbers. In fact I'm not the only one who does the Anakin sister solo in my guild, I'm getting 1st because of my other runs

    Firstly how could you know that with 1/3 the effort you would have gotten better rewards??

    Is this some sort of mathematical certainty like simming in groups of 3?

    Second - how are those trash?

    Third - how does effort equate to rewards, as far as I know its position and if you could have taken first with less effort, why didnt you? There is no reward for extra damage and you knew that going in.

    5 raids, small sample size. Maybe the next 5 raids will all drop multiple fully crafted pieces.

    I know for a fact that others in the top 10 got full pieces.

    These rewards are so bad I wouldn't wish them to my worst enemy. The only thing worth looking is the guild tokens.

    I never spoke about getting more because I did more damage. I said top 10-4 getting better than 1 is silly

    If they don't I'll message you personally with pictures. Also because the raid is only once every 4 days it only comes to show that RNG makes it very inconsistent and bad for the players

    I understand that you are seeing other get better rewards at some different ranks, but how do you know you would have gotten them, its random.

    You did say you should get better rewards for your effort, I assume your effort correlates to the damage you are doing, otherwise I'm not sure what effort you are referring too.

    Maybe you should start tracking your crops and the drops of the other top 10 to see in the long run who makes out better.
