Lol you say it as I pull a 4star from a shard prem. It would stand to reason shards have less chance of s good pull as they are much easier to collect than full crystals
I assume the chance is something like 0.1% - 0.4% in the crystal and 0.01% - 0.04% in the shard (misplaced decimal maybe?).
So yes odds are extremely low but he has plenty of 4* from earning the 4* shards
I think this may be the case as well. I've only gotten about five 3 stars from shard premium crystals total. Crystals I got from the Shockwave and Galvatron specials yielded much better results.
They should be called 2* crystals
That or the rates are bugged.
No, that's not how crystals work. The crystals are preset. Or in other words; rigged.
RIGGED.
This way, I'm okay with any bot I got, because if it's a new one, it's great, but if I got a double, I power up the bot, plus I get extra resources.
try shooting to get your opponent on burn or acid debuff. Your Melee should then see a significant damage.
This is it right here.
I was just thinking about this thread this morning before knowing it was made. If we are paying money or energon for the special crystals...(AND HOW I HATE THIS LOOT BOX STYLE OF REWARDING PLAYERS) then please make the drop rate of a PREMIUM robot a higher. 2 stars are not premium. Lets just get that out of the way now. They are useless and serve no purpose once you get past a certain level, and that level is very easy to achieve.
I opened over 20 "premium" crystals and pulled no 3 or 4 star. Since I began this game I think in April, I only pulled 1 four star and 4 three stars...out of I have no idea how many crystals.
The "Special Character Crystals" are just as bad. Why for the love of everything holy, why are the drop rates so high for a two star bot in something that we pay for? It is disgusting. and I thank the lord I have not actually spent money on the energon I used to open those crystals, or any crystal at all.
I completely respect and agree with absolutely everything you said.
Thank you sir. I know I am not the only one that feels this way and I am glad I am able to help bring the frustration to light...even if the executives do not care and know they are still making money by their current business model.
But the main thing that makes me hate PBCs is the 'deceptive' spinning animation, at the beginning of the spin, you can only see 3/4*s and only a few 2* bots but right when they're stopping, 2*s will appear suddenly OR sometimes it gets worse, you land on a 2* bot right between 3 or 4* bots. It's like the game is trying to trick you into wasting more and more energon
But then you run into the conundrum of not being able to participate in the arena fully. You have no bots because they were forged...you have to wait for "energy to regenerate" before you can battle in the arena again with your strong bots...
It is a vicious cycle.
One thing I think would ease the pain is if you forge your bots, and the bot you happen to be forging is the same bot of a lower class, and has already unlocked the special ability, the bot receiving that lower class bot should get some more of a bonus. Maybe something along the lines of a program just for that particular bot to awaken the ability and a program to strengthen the ability, all depending on the level of the ability the lower class bot has.
It is very annoying to ALWAYS get duplicate two star bots. That is the biggest issue. Always getting duplicate two stars. Pulling a two star is fine, pulling massive amounts of duplicate two stars is not...from a crystal that is supposedly "premium."
