The drop rate for 3* rainbow runes/shards creates a huge bottleneck. The drop rate for 3* rainbow evolution runes in the normal game is abysmal, especially now that only one drops when you get it. In the dungeon I've been getting a lot of 3* green shards, but the drop rate for 3* rainbow shards is also really low. Obviously you need significantly more rainbow runes/shards than any other color so having the drop rate so low feels unnecessarily punishing and taking the fun out of the game.
I'm with you on shards, but I've had no issues with rainbow runes. I get them fairly regularly in Underworld. I've been stuck on 3* green evo runes (none in multiple days) but have seen at least a dozen 3* rainbow evo runes in that time.
Yea...farming 10th stage is a waste of time...I'm getting more 2 stars item and 5 stars shards than the 3 stars evo shards.
update: gotten a rare soul from repeated dungeon.
I cleared all dungeon but don't drop any 3* shards, what's level dungeon you farming brother
Exact same situation on my end.Quote:

So what gonna do now? If you don't give us to play this game in high level, I will never play this game again...
Yes, I was particularly impressed by 2x2* evo shards from level 10... As a couple of suggestions, how's about removing low level drops from high level battles and having odd levels drop rainbow shards and even levels drop the colour of the day?
Hi,
time rift all 10 levels finished. for me : 4 x 3* green evolution shards (1 @ level 8, 1 @ level 9, 2 @ level 10) but no rainbow evolution shard
just got 2 3* rainbows in a row in map 7, i get 100% success rate there
I can't beat level 8, and level 7 I can only beat half the time by using my most powerful troopers, so I was farming level 6. Then I stopped and went back to Underworld Hard 2nd battle and got 2 2* rainbow evos there right away, allowing me to upgrade my Blue Allied Soldier to 4* finally. Anyway, I'm probably not going to pursue the time rift dungeons much until the type changes away from Sentinel.
Excellent idea Baba-8301Quote:

On the plus side, there's no real need for 5* characters right now. So the lack of 3* shards - while frustrating - does not impede progress.
See if you could buy EVO shards I'd agree with that, but you can't...Quote:

I think that depends on what characters players want to use. Some shine at 4 stars, yes. But the play style of some require characters that do need to be at 5 stars to finish with the game's current difficulty.
So far I've played 84 runs, and have gotten 3 x 3* Green and 1 x 3* silver. I knew this would happen. All the waiting for nothing.
Where are you farming? Map 8 is given me loads of rainbow 3*Quote:

Thanks for the recommendations, you guys! I'm going to try level 7 from now on.
So I just ran stage 7 today. I definitely got better results than dealing with the annoying "no damage or skills of any kind" bug. Stage 7 has decent drop rates and can be played on auto without fear of the bug.
7 seems to be the sweet spot unless you have a Warrior heavy team.
You'll still get the accuracy down curse, but it's unlikely to kill you on 7.
yeah the gold is the issue tho its like 60% less
you would think that with the high requirements for SoT the drop rates for 3* evo shards would be much kinder
If you want gold or character EXP, the Rift is not the place for you :DQuote:

Now it's not uncommon for me to get one 3* orange evolution rune, or one stupid purple talisman that has a 3x equip effect that isn't eve that useful. Every once in awhile I'll get 3x 4* talisman runes of a color I need, but it's rare. The drop rates are awful. I can't find 3* rainbow runes anywhere anymore. I even played a couple of levels on Underworld Hard and felt like I got better drops more often than on Madness. Do the devs feel that the drop system is broken, or is it just us who actually play the game?
