So what is the estimated number of refreshes a day needed to 7* this ship? Three 100 crystal refreshes? Three 200 crystal refreshes? More?

I’m sitting at 53/80 so it seems like a long ways off.
Why wasn't Cobb Vanth shards a reward for the Krayt Dragon raid? Why wasn't Endor Gear Luke shards a reward for the Speeder Bike raid?

  • With no hoarded energy to start, I understand 6 or 7 refreshes at the 200 crystal cost will be needed to be sure.
  • I had 1000 energy horded. The drop rate seems much less than the defender
  • 55 shards from 1670 energy so far for me. A little ahead of 3%, but others seem to confirm it’s 3%

    It takes 1000 attempts on average, to 7 star a single drop character.
  • 59 shards for me from 1000 hoarded energy plus all the 50, 100 and 200 refreshes.

    This is not relevant to a galactic chase.
  • I'm currently on 52 shards for 2000 fleet energy. Maybe I'm riding the lower end of the RNG for now. Should still be enough to get well towards 6*+ though.

    I had a good start at 66 after 1162 starting energy and did 6 refreshes (3*50 and 3*100). I have done some scenarios of different drop rates / refreshes for me based on that start. It looks like most people will get very close with just the 50c and 100c refreshes , plus a few 200s at some stage. Personally I will stick to just the 100s for the first 3-4 days , then decide if I start to do a 200 each of the remaining days or do them at the end.

    Assuming the 3% is correct (certainly seems so), you'll get about 26 shards/day if you do the 50s and 100s, which is only 234 shards. If you add in the 200s you jump up to about 33 shards/day, which is 297 shards at the end, so if you had hoarded energy you should 7* that way.

    Also, a much easier way to figure that out: https://swgohevents.com/shard-drop-calculator

    Thanks everyone. I will do the 50 and 100 refreshes and see what happens.

    I plan on doing all the way through the 200's on refreshes per day to supplement poor rng. I didn't hoard any energy. Regardless it will cost roughly 8400 crystal which is much cheaper than buying shards from the crystal shop.

    I got 40 shards on 1300 energy.

    Er mugh gerd, so glad I read this. I didn't realize the chase was 9 days long. According to the calculator, with my energy bank and 1x 200 refresh per day, I can get it 7* !!!

    Someone on reddit did the math, 7-8 refreshes per day to 7* it. Which includes some 200 refreshes.

    I did my own math, with a 3% drop rate and 1100 preloaded energy, doing 7 refreshes for 7 days and 6 refreshes for 2 days gets me right to 330.

  • I’ve got 70 shards from 1962 energy
  • I'm definitely riding the lower end of the average drop rates. Only at 62 for 2460 energy, closer to 2.5% than 3.

    Crystals or energy?

    Drop rate depends on energy, right? If I understand correctly, 5 attempts at a 20 energy node gives the same number of shards than 10 attempts at a 10 energy node. Is this correct?

    Yes, the drop rate is on a per energy basis....
  • Through 2300 energy, I’m getting a 2.6% drop rate right now. Hoping it’s just some bad luck and the drop rate is really 3%.

    59 shards for 2,390 energy. Siting at 2.47%
  • Obviously there’s no conclusive proof, but it wouldn’t be beyond the realms of possibility that they might attach a lower than usual drop rate to this chase, given that it’ll be needed at 7* to just unlock the new CS.

    The problem with that sort of conspiratorial chat is that the drop rates have been different for different ships before.

    3%, which this ship clearly is, is not lower than usual as there have been other ships dropping at that rate.

    Someone double check my math please.

    As of now, I have 52 shards. The remaining 278 will require 9267 energy assuming a 3% drop rate.

    There are 8 days and 10 hrs remaining so natural regen will provide 1212 fleet energy.

    The one daily fleet bonus will provide 405. I am assuming worse case that I get 0 fleet energy from daily webstore chest.

    This leaves a needed 7650 from refreshes which equates to 64 refreshes. Therefore I will need 8 refreshes a day after today. Am I missing anything?

    Also are there 3 100 refreshes available a day? I normally only do the 50’s.

    Yes there are 3 x 100 a day.

    Rest of your maths looks about right to me, apart from getting 10 energy per hour… 😉
  • I must be having really bad RNG, only 19 Shards in 860 Energy.
    2.2% Drop Rate for Day 1

    Found an error. I was treating it as 6 energy per hour it’s 10.
