classic LTs being skipped for new 5* introduction PVE events

fnedude

So it seems (again) that we are having a classic 5* (in this case 5Colossus) shards being skipped to give 5Elektra rewards.

Since classic 5* shards are only given out at best (!!) once a year, it seems that we'll not be getting any 5Colossus shards anytime soon.

Can the rewards for these PVE event when 5* introductions occur give BOTH types of shards?  Classic and the new character?

Even if the event gave only 1/2 of the classic 5*, it would be better than zero.

This can easily be done, when the event gives 50-shards, let it give 50 new 5* shards, and 50 classic 5* (or 25).
