240 energy for TWO Crafting materials
I mean, i've read all the convos about the low drop rate for this and that, but today i hit a new low for how ZEN you have to be to actually play this game, jesus f'in ****. I sim'd 30 batles, yes 30 batles, to get 2 purple materials of which i need 20, where the hell is the reasoning behind this stupid drop rates? I feel stupid for even trying to play this crap. Great job at implementing, one thing is to call it random, the other one is to intentionally code crapy chances. "Random", yeah, right! Screw this.

This may be anecdotal but it also seems like some nodes are always more generous than others.
If you scroll across on the rewards and yes they do scroll another one of those hidden bars you can see the further down on the chain the more likely the reward the higher on the chain the rare but more valuable the reward
This of course will not help you if you cannot defeat the hard nodes on level six and seven but just as a point of strategy
which battle? which purple mats?
I've invested over $200 and my toons suck.
I'm now level 50 and getting demolished by level 47 arena players with 4 star Princess Leia and a bunch of other rares.
I used crystals to buy energy, spending 218 just for 1 gear mat farm.
I've bought 4x 8 chromium packs, I got a 2 star Leia and a bunch of useless shards for gimp toons.
EA is a total random ripoff.
This game feels more like a house always wins casino, not a fun game to pass time.
Unbalanced fights, P2W toons that are way OP, Leia goes stealth , then doubles crits, then gets 3 shots in a row I mean get real EA, how can anyone that hasn't invests $100's get that at level 47 not t mention they other ridiculous 4+ star toons they had.
If a F2P had to farm those stars, they would be level 50+ and still suck.
He means gear, you only get mats in Cantina battles and the mats challenge.
Edit: I wanted to add, they did acknowledge they wanted to 'adjust' things (very carefully not acknowledging that the high probability of a 'series' in the system they use exists) so, the devs are aware and will hopefully update their RNG system. Have faith.

soooo true
the best job in the world is Ea employee. u dont need to do anything. people will defend you to death whatever u do
You took the risk and got rekt. How is that unfair? What if you got enough shards for Leia to become 5*? Would you still be complaining? I don't think so.
Players get so excited if they get something good and blame everything else if they don't. I think you should just s*** it up and play the game or start spending more. Maybe your luck will change someday.
Amen to that. Moderate spenders like myself won't put up with these kind of frustrating results in the long run. Especially when you need an exponential number of these as your characters progress. EA CG or whoever needs to start addressing major issues like this or risk losing a big chunk of the pie (i.e. the moderate spenders).
i guess he mean he got 2 purple mats from 30sims.. and the gear required 20purple mats.
FYI he didnt mention anything about Cantina.. Also Cantina doesn't drop any purple mats.
The problem is not luck, it's the low odds. Like playing russian roulette eith a 10,000,000 bullets barrel and getting killed, or buying every single ticket for the lottery but one, and always losing. Yeh it's luck, but the barrel and the lottery aren't playing fairly.
Cantina drops purple mats occasionally, but never purple gear.
If you didn't get the purple mats after 4 attempt. . Try exit out the game, or wait a little, or change other battle mission..
I got this idea after they said the random seed number doesn't change on the GW if you don't change your lineup. If you are having a bad run of SIM battles trying to draw a purple resource, do a manual battle but change your crew.
Then do more SIM battles. That seemed to change my luck although I have only tried it once so I haven't fully tested my theory yet.
