I didn't get a UR until the William event. Before that it would have been near impossible for me as well. During that event I killed nearly 900 AW combined between the 2 AW available, and something like 225 FAW. Never got an actual William drop, but managed enough AW to amalgamate 2 HUR William and had a couple left over to spare. Those numbers are just my own finds too, it doesn't include all the assists I did for my comrades and Alliance at the time. It takes a lot of work, which is why they are so stinkin' rare.

If you put in the effort, you'll likely get rewarded, but sometimes you just get bad results no matter what.

For example, I put in similar effort for the Corvus event, and ALL I had was FAW drops... not a single AW for Alnair. Yet, I had similar numbers for that event that I had for William. After something like 200 or so Orihime kills, I managed a meager 2 drops of her. At the time, the 5 VIT/step area she was in was high cost to me and I didn't have the shoes to get a higher number of encounters.

This event, I've had around 10-12 drops of Tomato Juice, but I've been slacking, only around 280 kills so far on her, and maybe 100-200 assists. Not even close to the numbers I had for William or Corvus but much better drop rate.

If this event doesn't work out for you, be sure to try hard the next event. Maybe the next one will be better.
