[SC] Spartan Drones

I haven't been very active here lately. (On and off through out the years.)

Some info:
Full lf4
full havocs
full hercs
basically im trying to find the most effective way going about getting full Spartan drones?

Any ideas help is fully appreciated

 

Assembly Recipe Assembly
Hercules Design 1
Havoc Design 1
Schism 225
Building Time 10 Seconds
*Recipe is rewarded upon 100% completion of Kronos Galaxy Gate

The grind is acquiring 2250 Schism ore (to upgrade 10 drones)
Most players group up when Hades is dropping it (you will hear the chat calling out requests for players to join outfit)

Its a fast gate - 15min avg

You have to spam Hades multiple times (80 - 90 times approximately) to get 25-30 per drop to acquire the 2250 Schism you need

Fastest way

Hope this helps

 

This is where i am confused. I did 3 Hades this morning and didn't get a single crystal needed. You only get 25-30 per drop when there is a Apocalypse event going (there is another one i forget) I thought there was currently a apoc. event going at the moment? Because we can still make the Purple keys for another 20 minutes.

All I am trying to determine is how do i know when i can spam the Hades gate, for the event drop rate of 25-30 Schism Crystals. (Obviously during a event but i thought we was just in a Apocalypse event.) I posted the thread below which contains the normal drop rates and event drop rates.

there is something wrong with it today, you're not alone, i did 5 gates and didn't got a single one.

 

dont forget kronus for spart blue print

 

OILDAILY:
I already have the Blue Print. And i already have one spartan. By the time i looked into the spartan drone i already had enough crystals to make one. Im just trying to figure out the best route possible.

Emeraude-s:
So.... I was right we were supposed to be getting 25-30 Schism Crystals from Hades today? And correct me if i'm wrong. As long as the purple booty key is in assembly that means the Apocalypse event is active? (So its essentially a event timer as well? )

 

I did two today as well and zero schisms. And yes, the purple key is in Assembly. Bigpoint needs to clarify this or I'm done.

 

@Sυρєяησνα™, just remember the Spartan like the Havoc does not give the full BOOST unless you have the full set. If you like the Hercules and Havoc boosts you may want to have another set of each after making the set of Spartans.

As far as the drops, in the Gates, the TEAM may be forgetting to "flip the switch" as they are trying to finalize the Merge of servers.

 

Well has anybody "official", officially commented on this issue with the crystals and how much we are suppose to be getting from an "event"?

HelpMeHelpYou:
yeah that is a work in progress my friend


And so earlier when we all did the Hades gates, when the timer on the Apocalypse keys was still going, were we supposed to be getting crystals or were we not?

 

I just checked all my logs - looks like they suddenly turned off the event after 10am -- I got schism from everything before that -- 7 gates after nothing!! And they wonder why people leave and never come back.

I contacted support - but you know how thats going to go

 

Yeah... Either way could you let us know what they manage to say about this. depending on what they say to you ill send em a email as well
