I'm sure a lot of us are holding 6* crystals and 6* shards until November, because that's when 6* dups start dropping 7* shards.
HOWEVER
I'm also sure a ton of people are going to do this right at 12:01am on November 1st and then be sad. So remember:
1. 7* shards will not drop until the November UPDATE of the game comes out, PROBABLY on
November 7th.
2. You actually have to
APPLY THE UPDATE to get the shards. It is not enough that the game is updated, you also have to be updated.
3. You should probably WAIT until someone else confirms 7* shards are dropping. Failure is always an option.
4. If you jump the gun, Kabam has already stated they will NOT retroactively give you 7* shards.
5. 6* Max sig duplicates will be dropping a
new max sig crystal that contains 7* shards after the November update. That means old max sig crystals will *NOT* be updating their contents to include them after the November update.
=== Dups before the update don't drop 7* shards, max sig crystals dropped before the update don't drop 7*shards. ===
All of this, INCLUDING THE MAX SIG CRYSTAL, has been confirmed (there should be an official statement clarifying the max sig crystal update soonish).
