Wish SGG would let you trade some of them for people’s duplicate heroes, I have piles of 4* mats that I will never use at this point. At this rate another year and a half I can ascend more 5s than I have ascended in total… Bring on the heroes already lol.
I had one day with 3 random 4* AM recently, then another day with 2 last week. I’m up to mats for 10 5s sitting around and still piling up!
Sorry, for the misleading. I mean I got around 3 colored chest in a month.
I think before the half year emptyness it was then a maximum of one per month but there also could be month without any 4* mat from these chests.
@Jop , to answer the initial question - yes it is, because you set your expectations too high. Let’s face it, 5* hero and 4* mat drop rate is extremely low, and IMO you should play according to that rule or pay a large sum of money to get those. For example I play as a vc2p (only ViP), have a handful of useful 5* amassed, and guess what - not only do I have a ton of 4* unused mats, but those keep coming even if I don’t like it. If you don’t chase any shiny new (or even a bit older) 5* and set your expectations to what the game offers in relative abundance - that is 4* heroes, 3* mats, emblems and to an extent limit breakers - then you wouldn’t be disappointed.
I’ve been tracking pulls since may 2020, the 4* i started in Jul 2020. Here it is graphically in side by side, and then stacked total. There are def low months in the past, and actually Feb/Mar 2021 for random sources was bad, but this is 3rd month in a row, and to have zero at this point in Jan is kinda ridiculous. It is what it is, i’m sure, or hopeful it will turn soon.
