What are the chances of getting 2* Ancient Film?

I have now completed around 150 successful Federation Shuttle missions and received exactly zero 2* Ancient Film. I received a lot of super rare items. Now I would like to know how high the probability is of actually receiving this item. After all, it is only available through the Fed missions.

    Sometimes it's better to replicate if you really need them...

    Of course I did it. This time I needed for a crewmen 6 of this items at the same time. And it was a good timing about the 200 fed missions for the new crewmen. This is the point why I know how much times I did it. After finished all fed missions, I used the replicate.

    I haven't been keeping track, but I've got so many 2* films in my inventory that they don't seem to be particularly rare.

    They only drop with 3:00 hour shuttles. (I would assume that getting 3o minute less time because of event bonus does not effect this)

    This was changed not that long ago.

    But before the change, I would run 200 , 30 seconds shuttle missions, and I would be lucky to get one.

    BTW , I too would like to know the drop rate of shuttle missions.

    That's interesting. Has anything else been changed? My stock of ** Security Codes and ** Encoded Communiques is constantly decreasing, despite running Section 31 and Maquis shuttles all the time.

    I currently have 252.

    I don't run any Nerfed Shuttles.

    Did they say "only" on 3 hour Shuttles?

    I thought the change was a 2 ⭐ was GUARANTEED on three hour Shuttles. But, I sincerely can't remember if they said "only". Is why I ask.

    Was it announced as part of an Update, or by itself?


    I went back to last June in Communications, but did not see a "Shuttle change" thread.

    I get my 2* security codes from the Mon/Wed/Fri cadet missions.

    All 2* items (not components) can only be gotten with 3:00 hour shuttles after that update.

    All my shuttles I tanked . I would send about 200 to get a two star item that I needed. It did say they would not drop for less than 3::0 hour shuttles. There is a thread that we talked about it on, it is on the bridge.

    Edit: I can see from my post . Before the change ,I had to on the average send 180 successful shuttles to get a two star component I needed. That is actually a total of 300 0:30 shuttles both successful and failures.

    Thanx. I couldn't remember exactly what they said. I never had an issue, because all my Shuttles are three hours.
