That's interesting... but is it confirmed though? The post you mentioned seemed like it was assumed that tokens were tied to renown crates. I'm renown 44 right now and I have yet to receive a single token since 6.0 dropped. With this I assume that either the drop rate is so low that it's basically non-existent or they forgot about. Judging by the fact that they don't even test their own patches I don't actually put it beyond them (cue combing the wreckage).

So did the devs completely forget about lightside/darkside tokens or are they trying to bury the system? Unless someone has found out how, I'm not sure how to earn tokens anymore. I recall that they were previously tied to the lightside vs darkside event and world bosses.
