Ancient shards in the market

So I have done my homework on this and I am positive there is a cap on how many ancient shards you can acquire from the market in a month.  

The first 2 weeks of each month is where I find my ancients. After that there is nothing until the 1st day of the next month almost like clockwork.

I have received a response from the mods a month ago saying there isnt a cap and that it is all based on rng.  

Is this the official statement from plarium that there is no cap on ancient shards every month?

This is not a hate post or a complaint I promise.  Just curious 😀

I'm positive I've seen somewhere where they say there is a cap of 5 per month.

I posted almost this same post a month ago and a mod posted saying there is most definitely NO cap and it's all rng.  The post than got deleted.

Hi, about ancient shards in the market, IMO it's about modified rng. I don't believe that drop rate for ancients is the same as for mysteries. I never got more than 6 ancients from market in one month.

I saw somewhere, somebody was saying it's 5 per month max. And I believe it, becouse I've never had more than 5 ancient after first 2 weeks as you said. I've checked this a little bit by spending 200 diamonds (40x refresh market) to search for ancient, there were none. So I assume that this is capped unfortunately.

It's most definitely capped. I was getting them at a particular rate and then there was a drop off where they don't show at all.

Yea I am certain they are capped at 5 a month.  Is it possible to get an official post about this?

"How could we possibly intefvere with nature of randimness ..." is their official statement.

Thing is  - that was already proven a lie when they introduced 10x chances for single champ as 'event'.


BTW - last collectible game I have played lasted about half year after introducing new arena tier just for top X numer of players (not hard point threshhold like bronze - gold now)

I am not saying it have killed the game - it might as well have given it those 6 months. All I am saying is that this move might be indication of current state of the game

If they capped ancient shards from market to a maximum of 5 per month and still advertise its completely rng: this is considered as scam. As user you are in the situation to prove it but unfortunately without internal statistics nearly impossible

Well as I said in the beginning this wasnt supposed to be a rant or a complaint.  I'm genuinely curious about this.  Anyone else pull more than 5 ancients in the market in a single month?

Hey hey 


There is no limit to the number of ancient shards you can get from the market, its all RNG.(I'll see if I can find Marius post regarding this)


From my experience it definitely is RNG, sometimes I can get quite a few other times I don't get any at all.


many thanks and good luck

Many players checked this and agree with that is capped to 5/month, and you keep lying? What is wrong with this company...

Unless this is really RNG, but after you buy those 5 shards it's dropping to 0.00005% chance to get another one, than ok you can manipulate this saying it's still a chance.

Hello guys! There is a cap, indeed, per month for each player. Otherwise, we would have no way of restraining those lucky ones that know how to manage RNG :) There is no specific pattern to how often or when Ancient Shards appear on the Market, that is all decided at random. I am afraid, I cannot elaborate on what the limit of the Shards is, but you can find that out empirically.


So this is a post from a few months ago.  In July.  I guess I've heard multiple contradicting posts from mods.  I tend to agree with cirilla on this because I consistently pull five per month

I've never gotten more than 5/month and always from the 1st to 7th of the month.

Hello


Well, my apologies, I didn't intend to be misleading or contradicting, thanks for correcting me KSTHECR0W.


Though I'll be more vigilant in the future.


many thanks

Any talk about removing the cap?  Seems as if it should be based on rng instead of a set number

I would love to find one but never found any in the market just green shards and been playing 52 days lol login count told me but it proves I have no luck in this game if they don't even give you a chance to buy one.

I think they should sell one of each shard every day cause unless you spend alot in game you never get epic or leg shards
