9S Automaton is not appearing per patch notes

[Starshower]

I keep checking to see if there's any update on this (even to know if it's by design or if it was an oversight).

Going by the tokens/pieces I've upgraded I can tell I've ran it about 40 times so far and I've never even seen the 9S minion drop. I know it sounds melodramatic, but It's soul crushing to spend ~45 minutes in the raid for it to not even appear at the end (let alone actually have to win it...)

I know it's RNG at its best, but if it was something like an extreme primal we'd at least get a token that we could later trade in for the mount. Right now you could potentially run this a thousand times and never even see it drop and it just feels like a huge waste of time.

Yeah.. I'm a minion collector, but I can't stand that alliance raid.. The Red Girl boss causes me so much anxiety and distress with the effects that mess with my eyes and the jump scare which gets a very strong reaction for me... I'm waiting to see if they will fix this bug before I farm it, the less times I have to run that raid the better!

I’ll make this comment now since someone else just did another…

Every time this bug report gets commented on - it brings it to the top of the bug report list. They have already passed by the original date of this thread and moved everything else from 7/20 to another category.

I know this issue has gotten a lot of attention and is by far the highest viewed bug report - but if it keeps getting commented on and put back to the top of the list I’m afraid they are never going to see it to address it.

I recommend submitting an in game bug report to raise more attention to this issue and waiting for them to move this bug report to another category.

I especially recommend submitting an in game bug report because the original poster did not use the template (although I did post a comment with complete template) - so this may get tossed into insufficient information category based on original post.

I did just that, and I'll do a separate main post here too because I feel that this issue is one that should not be ignored.
