Ah. I believe Yup told me that Tier 6 doesn't pay out in skill shards very much. You need to reach Tier 7 to get them. I've not had enough dupes to sac to test this, but maybe next event I can.
Tier 6 will at times for me, but it's rare. Tier 7 and fills always do. Tier 5 or below.. good luck I NEVER see skill shards even though tiers 4 and 5 are supposed to award skill shards at times.
I've gotten more skill shards from skull quests than tier 4 and 5 sacrifices.
I did get a few skill shards for a vortex fill during this event. Not as many as usual only 4 or 5 I think. Usually it's around 10. I only did 1 vortex fill during this event.. and 1 level 6 (which gave me 1 or 2 skill shards if I remember correctly).
I always get what I'm not looking for. If I want rare souls, I'll get GA souls and skill shards. If I want skill shards, I'll get GA souls and legendary souls... I get alot of GA souls.... But hey at least since I pulled the Assassin cotd during this event, I now have all the 5* gunners and assassin's that you can get from those souls.
Show off! :p
I always feel a bit disappointed when I pull a tier 4 or 5 sacrifice and never see skill shards. In fact, I can't say I've ever gotten a skill shard from those. Most often it's 6 generic rare souls. Sometimes it's 3 generic rare souls and 3 class rare souls. I avoid tiers 4 and 5 because of this specifically. They aren't worth it.
Yeah, I barely touch grand sacrifices unless I just want to quickly top off a ring fill. Anything below just isn't worth it. In my opinion, tier 6 at 40k is the best kind of sacrifice because you get 6 big rewards. Unless your me and get like, no rare souls because the universe doesn't want me to have Visions, 7th Son or Clansman Eddie lmao.
On my tier 6 on this event I got only a few Skill shards compared to the last event when I got a load of them - think I am sitting on 150 or so now - I only shard when I know that toon sis going to not be nerfed to death or when I get a new Eddie who will work in PVP (which is never to be honest - or at least until after that meta has moved on!). Like others I rarely get SS below tier 6 - the odd one or two but very, very few. More likely to get them in Skull Quests - I usually get a few per week from them.
This sac event I only managed three vortex and had maybe four or five the last time as kept getting decent legendary drops - not anywhere near that this time but that is the RNG I guess.
Still got PoM and did not have him, though again not sure he is that great as he seems easy to kill in arena.
Just did my last possible Tier 6 sacrifice and blew my last ironit on event souls. Got some 5* over the week, but all in all again no new char and ofc no Clansman for me. After not getting PoM or the Beast another big dissappointment! Atm really don’t know for what I should continue „playing“ (more precisely: unmotivated pressing of buttons) any more. This game is so dead...
