I'm making this thread to put forward that I don't understand how on earth obtaining a shader can be be so inconsistent. I have reached level 29 Dead Orbit and I have received countless commendations and shards which I haven't used since before the dark below. I have friends who are less then Rank 10 dead Orbit and have obtained either Revenant or Bittersteel. I have played the game since day one and have put my time and effort into it and the simple fact that people have played for maybe a month or two and have it before me is beyond a joke. There needs to be a system where you obtain these shaders from each faction at different intervals for example Shader 1 rank 10 Shader 2 rank 15 and Shader 3 at rank 20 this way players won't be wasting their time doing rep gaining methods on a faction that is not guaranteed to give them what there after.
