suddenly team-ups are in short supply

Anyone else experiencing this? I guess I'm glad they started dropping boosts again, but one side effect is that my stock of TU powers has dwindled to just 2. And I only use TU powers in maybe half of my battles, if that.

Does anyone know the current odds on boost drops and team-up drops after PVP battles?

    Teamups are now a sometimes food. icon_e_wink.gif

    They got us addicted and dropped the drop rates.

    I keep a couple Juggernauts stars to send to Alliance mates for TUs.

    They said it was 20% for Boosts, and if a boost did not drop then 20% for a TU.

    Since this started I have gotten like 2 boosts, and about double that in TU's

    I think the chances are lower.

    They check boosts first at 20% and if no boost then Team Ups at 20%, which makes the odds of a TU dropping 20% of 80% or 16% only.

    The odds need some tweaking. Especially if you are going to try and sell us on Storm (Mohawk) Yellow being a viable power. I'd say 20% boosts, 50% TU is about right, which would be 40% odds on any fight.

    I may start tracking this data, because I like to track data. I heard somewhere else it's about 1 in 5 for each? 1 in 5 for boost, if you don't get a boost, 1 in 5 for a TU. I suspect the drop rate is too low, and they'll bump it up a bit, but we'll see.

    My stock has gone down to 16 or so - I use them every third or forth battle. Basically, I use them when I have enough TU to use them (not a particularly common occurance) and I haven't sewn up the current battle.

    I am OK with the drop rate of TUs. I don't mind not using them every single game. They are something more for you there but not mandatory, just like boots are. But they should take a look in the fact that the opponent will always equip one no matter what. It somehow should be balanced. Either remove the TU completely from the opponents or reduce their chance of equipping on from the beginning.

    I'd rather they double or triple the drop rate, and give the AI 2 team-ups to make things a little interesting. (I'm one of the weird few who actually wants to buff AI for a challenge.)

    Personally I'd appreciate being given a choice between a boost or a TU after each battle (or 20% of battles, whatever it needs to be balanced). Unfortunately that seems counter to the game's philosophy of making everything random.

    Chaos is fair.
