5-star Shards?

A couple of months ago, there were many ways to obtain them, bt recent quests and the game in general have been fairly dry when it comes to these rewards lately. The Bounty Missions seems like a dream now. And didn't Kabam promise that there would be MORE ways to obtain them moving forward in the era of champ and rarity gates?

Arena gives them, just takes time. Same with the EQ, takes time. Truth is, they're much more available than they were a year or so ago. They just boosted Heroic and Master EQ rewards. Sure, you're not getting rained upon like you would with 4* shards/crystals. Just the same, those 4* crystals can yield 275-550 extra 5* shards for dupes (550 for max sig).
Summoner Advancement gives a decent amount if your Alliance is hitting the 500k+ mark. Little extras via the the 3 day Alliance event Peak Milestones. This month, the Rifts, while RNG based, can award some nice shards (although that's luck based so not guaranteed). This all also hinges on your personal progression. For some, 5* shards are a plenty. For others, takes more time. If time is invested, eventually, they become a plenty.
My point was 1) 5s shards were far more obtainable a few months ago and 2) Kabam had said in some release that they were going to be making them more obtainable moving forward.
Sorry to cause so many bunched-up panties with my post. Yet again I am sorry I ever asked anyone on this forum something.
Some do get a little jaded here. It's also difficult to understand tonality on an online forum. Some are for sure pure sarcasm or cynical remarks. Some try to maintain clarity and it comes off as condescending, even though that wasn't their intent. Personally, I think you made a valid point that they're not as plentiful as other EQs prior (unless RNG blessed you with the 5k in the Epic Rift anyway 😂).
I would surmise that the upcoming 'Far From Home' EQ will provide some interesting opportunities. Hopefully anyway, lol. I hope there's a Celebrity/Champion Challenge like many of the other MCU related EQs came with (not sure why Endgame didn't get one to this day). Typically fun and easy shards. Maybe another side quest like the Bounties will be paired with the main EQ as well. All are factors in there being more or less 5* shards being available EQ to EQ.
