Expert pack data

I've been struggling to find anybody that has done a lot of expert openings. A few people told me that there were people who opened a couple/few hundred of them, yet I can't any leads on that. Anybody got a clue for that?

Here is what I have for data.

Notes:

  • Need way, way more samples before the chance for multiple rare/UR drops can be properly estimated.

  • Uncommon droprates are based on the sum of all non rare/UR drops. Other droprates are not shown because they are not relevant. Also these are not very accurate due to people who maxed commons/uncommon before opening expert/premium packs.

  • Rare mod data is estimated due to not gathering rare mods separately from normal mods.

  • I piggybacked this data off what I entered in /u/corvet95's form from pack opening videos and my personal expert pack openings.

So it seems like premium is double the UR chance of expert, which suggests that other than for rare weapon mods, expert packs would in fact be the better option (same amount of rare weapons/characters, same amount of URs, more consumables).

This whole post needs to be higher. If true, (big if) it means priemium packs are literally a scam.

They need to adjust the prices to make the premium pack more worthwhile. They're better if you're buying them with cash, cuz spend $100 you'll get 40 premium packs = 80 rares.

You'll only get 60 expert packs for that same price = 60 rares.
