The drop rates are not showing in the offer or in the crystal screen.

    Very true, these crystals are terrible but isn’t that a terms of service issue? I thought drop rates had to be displayed on any cash offer.

    Not passing on legal aspects, but my position is everything should have drop rates disclosed prominently and correctly regardless of whether real world or game currency is exchanged.

    It is a legal requirement for anything odds based purchased with real life currency to show the odds.

    Any update on the missing odds on these crystals?

    @Kabam Miike can you provide an update. Since the odds were indeed missing.

    It is a requirement of both Apple and Google's app store guidelines. However, that's an agreement between Kabam and the respective store operators, and only they are in a position to decide if an app developer has adhered to the spirit of those rules. Neither Apple nor Google makes promises to app store customers in this regard.

    Insightful
    (thought that was gonna just be a link to how and when they have to declare rates, but it actually contains the drop rates themselves…)

    Superior Mythic Crystal
    5-Star Hero – 77.50%
    6-Star Hero – 16.00%
    7-Star Hero – 2%
    6-Star Nexus Crystal – 4.00%
    7-Star Nexus Crystal – 0.50%

    It’s gotta be in game on the bundle. That’s always been the status quo. This was not.

    I don't know the point being made there, I'm just saying it's a legal requirement to display drop rates on any RNG based product like lootboxes, crystals etc that are purchased with real life currency, at least across most of Europe. I'm not arguing one way or the other who's duty it is to maintain that.

    So it seems nobody from kabam is going to respond to the fact that no odds were included in these crystals that were purchased with real money. I just don’t understand why. Whenever they released the $5 dollar nexus crystals without odds they gave replacement crystals to those affected.

    I am unsure of what bundle or crystal this was about. If you require further assistance in this matter, please reach out to our support team via the in-game menu.
