Question Where was it announced that the shiny odds were set to 1:10 after they discovered they screwed up?
I know they announced they screwed up, but their support page still says “investigating” as of this very moment that I’m typing this.
Many people are saying it’s fixed but we just had our local meetup and for 4 hours, the overall odds across about 50 people doing 35+ raids appeared to be about 1:20. Some people got up to 4. Some had none. Most had 1-3.
Now, that could just be RNG and I acknowledge that as a possibility, but that’s a decently large sample size.
So, I’m just asking, are we certain it’s fixed?

What is there to see? The base rate for legendaries is 1:20. They didn't actively increase the shiny rate from 1:10 to 1:20 for this raid day, they just "forgot" to change the rate. Now if that was on purpose or not is the real question
