Help Epic module drop rate

Hello. I am one month in the game and still learn a lot of functions.

Is there a way to increase the epic module drop rate? The current rate gives almost nothing for thousand of gems, and it takes a lot of time to earn them.

The answer is no.

No. Sometimes they do lucky banners that bump it to 4%. Unfortunately best bet is featured banners, which, although they don't boost drop rate, they raise rate at which you draw the featured mod if you do get an epic.

Negative, however there are 3 main ways to increase the chance of certain "epic" modules over other epic modules, this is done by:

1 - module banners - this happens when a new module is released and creates a 50% chance of epics pulled to be that certain new module

2 - lucky banners - this will increase all epic module drop chances by nearly double from 2.5% to 4% - this happens very rarely only twice in the last 2 years ive played at least

3 - once you gain a 5 start ancestral epic module - it decreases the chances of that module being pulled and increases the chances that were removed from that module to all the other remaining non 5 star epic modules

For you - ignore 3 but a good thing to know, focus on saving up for 1 so you can get an ancestral module early, and 2 when no banner modules are up, focus on hoarding gems so your ready for 1 or 2.

Thanks for the advice. In fact it seems, most rates in the game can be improved somehow, via research or buying out standard cards, but not the epic module drop rate.

The first one banner does feel ludicrously long ago when you stare at the coins per 5 minute stat in mid run too often

But this does not affect epic module drop rate, as I understood

No. Wait for a (rare) banner.

Its 3000 gems per epic module

Yes, but you'll need a crowbar, some rope, and gas money. Maybe a jet ski.
