Why are 2* red evo runes rarer than 3* red evo runes?

[Hypnos]

Have been farming point of no return madness and hard the past few days and something that surprised me was the frequency of 3* red evo runes dropping (in madness) being higher than that of 2* red evo runes. When the 2* runes eventually drop, they only come in 1's.

Point of no return (hard) isn't any better for 2* red evo runes. In fact the drop rate is probably around the same. It's laughable that I have almost 5 times as many 3* red evo runes than I have 2* ones (29 3*, 5 2*).

Something really needs to be done about their drop rate and the amount that drops each time for those of us upgrading red talismans, and I'd say that would be many of us!

We need some kind of convert method for evo shards and evo runes. Say 20 two star evo runes/shards convert into 1 three star, and 10 three star convert into 3-5 two star evo runes/shards. That would be a huge help with all these bottlenecks, and a way to remove excess gold from overloaded accounts.

before the update the lower shards came in groups of 2/3 or even more if i remember right. that should be implemented again, since the highest runes should be the hardest to get....

You're absolutely correct. I reckon you have a better shot at getting 2* runes in lower difficulties, but that would be annoying. 'Sides, it's weird farming Underworld Madness and a single 1* evo rune was one of your (or your only) drop(s).

I'm fighting the same problem.

*2 red are hardest to find and most used. to evolve to 4 and to 5 star. 1 and 3 star are much easier to get

I agree, since the update, a lot more are dropping of everything EXCEPT 2* red evo runes. i cant get these no matter where i farm or how many times i grind and refill my sands of time.

Maddness Battlefield Silent Cries (3rd battle of the 1st node), seems to be dropping a lot of 3* stuff of all kinds which has been a HUGE improvement from the Oct 18 update. Just those darned 2* red i cant find to save my life :(

I can't get the freakin 1* reds to drop...geez! :mad:

I have been having the same problem since the update. I dropped down to hard on Battlefield this morning and got four 2 star drops out of 10 or 12 attempts on Rapid Fire

[oldrava-3320]

that is because we clear the game if you play lower level then you should get lower level runes , for example my team based on warrior type so I play more in battle field normal or hard

I mentioned this in the Oct 28 Update thread and got the following response from Sparton. He seemed to acknowledge the fact that there is an issue with 2* evo rune drop rates. No ETA on a fix…

No, the data for this update had to be locked down a few days ago, so I don't have an improvement in for that yet.

Same problem here. I am low on red and blue 2* evo runrs. They should be dropping on hard difficulty of the first 3 worlds now, but drop rates are terrible. I tried almost all battles.

This is especially important after the last update (great update) since we got new Eddies. I got a FotD eddie but have no 5* talismans to use on him.
