Stopped tracking my results rigorously, just as I have in elemental chests, but I got my first 4* mat from shards yesterday! Scope for me. Maybe 5 total combines so far, so I’m ahead of the curve for now.

First one was before the increased rate of emblems.
Recipes 1B, 10A, and 10B. Using gems to boost shards too, so 3304 shards per week. Given the number of 4* mats I have already seen from the shard combine, the gem boost is worth it for me.
Sometimes I see 500 gems offering for a 4* mats. Is gemboosting for alkashards a better way to obtain the 4*mats or just buy them with gems ?
I have been keeping track for a while but I never posted this before.

Is this the periodic 500 gem offer for a 3* ascension mat (i.e., an ascension material to ascend a 4* hero to their final tier)? Off-hand, I do not recall ever having seen a 4* ascension mat (these are 5* hero ascension mats) offer for 500 gems.

Nice! I got a Tome today in Slot 1, which makes my 9th 4* mat in Slot 1 of the shard exchange under the revised AL. I am seeing a 4* mat in Slot 1 every 10th or 11th shard exchange.

Guys. A little bit help here. I tried to register an account in the pasting Link. It says account not verified when I try to login and email already registered if I try a different registration. No email has come (yet to me).
Do you mean forum account? Have you check in Spam/Junk folder?
No. I meant the Paste form in the legend there. So it could keep the record. Unless you do it differently?
That is only tools for helping copy-paste a text in forum, there is no need to register to that website.
A better way for table converter mardown is also here (mardown generator).

Nicely documented. Hadn’t you consider changing levels a bit? Generally the A’s take more ham and it’s tricky to have your lab maxed and sit at just 6… Any particularity for those chosen levels?
