They seem to be getting fewer and father between then they were before. Do you think igg has plans to start selling Octavius boosters before anybody was able to come close to farming his shards....?

Exactly because of octavius is good they'll replace it. Too good to be farmable for everybody. Octavius isn't exactly cheap to "farm". The only way to "farm" him right now is through either getting him through a Relic Chest, something that's so rare I doubt the chances are higher than a one thousandth of a percent and through shards, which have a drop rate of some 20-30% per Relic Chest. And the only way to open Relic Chests is through accumulating Relic Keys and Relic Points, which you can only accumulate so many of as a F2P player (some 100-200 points per Bronze, Silver and Gold chest and a miniscule chance of getting a key) or bu buying them for 600 gems each (400 for the first 6 or so per day). In other words, you have to open some 200 or so Relic Chests to get even one Octavius. So unless you feel like spending, oh, 5 months trying to F2P your way to Octavius, you're gonna have to pony up the equivalent of quite a few boosters to get 75 shards (or 60 + 15 5-star Omni Shards).

I'm at 24 Octavius shards. I pay for Star, but nothing on top of that. I feel like most other ppl who are ftp/Star have less than I do, and I average 5 relic chests per day during event, since it started. How many events ( / days total) of Relics have there been so far? If igg keeps it up (thas right, ima start referring to them in lower case), will get one eventually. They could just as easily cut it off like Heist -

It's not like you're successfully "farming" him. It's gonna take you a total of 4-5 months to finish even one copy of him.

How can you farm Octavius as a f2p? I open 10 every day every relic event and currently I'm sitting on 22 shards... Also Relic Chest event is the most unlucky game mode for me never got a single 5 star from it...

In a few months time, once you've finished your first copy, there might be a shiny new creature that's better than him. The fact that Octavius is farmable across 4 or so months for a single copy will not make much of a dent into IGG's profits, if at all.

You're absolutely right there will be something new by the time anyone gets their free farmed Octavius. But for those of us playing for free that's just the way it is. We still want the card, even if we are late to the party. I have virtually no rare non-farmable 5* cards, so any semi farmable 5* is going to be a huge boon to my decks if I can complete it.

It will likely still drop shards from relic chests, but at a reduced rate. I still get Lich Lord shards, so it seems that's what they have done before. Is the screenshot above the Granite Dragon?

Its in the creature list if you go to a generic rune like protean and click on creatures. Neander 5*, bullseye, i7, crystal ward (reduces damage from all creatures by 15%, capped at 90%). Not sure how the crystal ward works, kind of a confusing description
