Nexus Cav drop rates [Merged]

Those Class Cavalier crystals had the correct, updated drop rates. I imagine that whoever was in charge of getting the assets together for this deal just assumed the drop rates had been adjusted already and slapped them in. They did what many people purchasing this deal did and figured “this must be the right thing,” and put it live.
I do not believe there was any malicious intention or action on Kabam’s part. They’ll respond when they respond. I still think those who purchased the deal will get an extra 10 Nexus Cavalier crystals at the proper drop rates, because that’s Kabam’s standard procedure for these things.
Many people made a mistake. It happens. Taking this tone with them will neither help them to learn from it or fix their problem, so what good does it serve?
Kabam, for whatever else you may say about them, are fairly savvy businesspeople. I’m sure they’ll have a response to this at some point.
It's not bait and switch. It's not even shady. I'm almost 100% certain Miike said in the past that Cav nexus crystals weren't going to be updated, but I am not certain. I feel this came up before.
Everytime something like this happens, you always have people coming here to say how shady Kabam is and 99% it's always just been a simple mistake or a misunderstanding on the community side.
I think it may have been the *class* nexii that were wrong.
I am still of a mind that the 4.5% drop rate on the nexus class crystals were erroneously placed there and that the original drop rate was supposed to be the 1.5% over three spins of a single crystal, exactly how the ones bought yesterday are currently. I am of the mind that someone at Kabam simply oversighted and did not properly do the math/adjust the rates properly on the last set, and that these are actually correct. In which case, this is a bevy of whining about absolutely nothing, and the only possible gripes would be with the class nexus deals (which, as I recall, most people were pretty happy with.)
But that's speculation. Can't know until someone who is paid to know lets US know. All I'm saying is don't jump to the worst possible conclusions and set the forums on fire searching for a scapegoat. If they messed up, given the (mostly premature at this moment) outrage, they'll likely come out and say it. If not, then you're likely going to get mad anyways, and I can't stop you, but know it'd be over nothing at all in that scenario...
everyone buys it thinking they are cavs but with 3 choices since there were already cav crystals previously.
after opening the crystals no body gets even a single 5*. upon inspection it is revealed that the drop rates were reduced to a one hundredth of previous for both 5* and 6* pulls.
would this be shady marketing? they can say that since this is the first time for cav nexus's, former drop rates aren't applicable. they can say that they were not hiding anything since the droprates were visible for all to see.
the same excuses in the current situation are valid
