 Currently at 77 SP's and counting. Have been sticking with SP's as they have always been kind to me, but I must have angered the RNG Goddess somehow. How have I slighted thee, my leige??

Anyhow, I'm sure my record is feeble compared to other people, so share your luck (or un-luck, as the case may be).

Maybe we can turn this topic into some kind of weird good-luck-streak-breaker-thingy. I am nothing if not eloquent.<_<

27 is my longest run.

[DullahansXMark]

I don't know mine, but Neferius' is 8.6 million credits.

[Osmethne]

25 or 28, I don't recall.

[Hackulator]

I don't keep track!

[MP-Ryan]

5 or 6? I have pretty decent luck...

[AwesomeDudex64]

32.

[Hantaksk]

ugh, i thought i was having bad luck with my 12 in a row psp without an UR unlock.

Why specter packs? i think overall they are more expensive than the PSP packs. But who knows, i for once only bought veteran packs until about 2 months ago, and i've been playing Muliplayer since the demo came out.

[sclera]

I don't count.

[MChang1984]

Drop rate seems to be about 1 in 14 for me. If I am lucky, 1 in 10 for a UR drop. But I have unlocked about 70% of everything so it is getting kinda hard to get what I don't have yet.

[RagingDream]

I haven't kept track, but I'm incredibly unlucky with getting UR's. My highest upgraded UR is the Talon, which I barely use. I agree with buying SP's, they are far more kind to me than a PSP

[Matic1093]

Don't count. I usually don't care if I get an UR. I just want to unlock what I haven't gotten yet.

[IllusiveManJr]

To quote Gluttony, "I don't know. I lost count. I know it was a lot though."

[TommyNg]

i tried to have 6 UR in a row, i m so lucky

You have to learn when to stop buying packs and walk away.

The store is not a store at all. It's a casino/torture device. It's a psycological contruct. The following is how I deal with it.

I get above average drop rate or I walk away. It's that simple. If the store ****s on me, if it fails to reward me, I fail to reward it. I walk away.

The concensus observed UR drop rate on PSPs is 9 to 11 percent. I am worth better than that. The proof is that I can just walk away and nothing can stop me. I aim for at least a 25% drop rate for URs and gear(just as rare as URs if not more so) in PSPs. If I don't get what I want, then the casino failed so I stop rewarding it with my credits.

25% drop rate is one in 4 packs. So, I buy in sets of 4. I stop buying after a bad set. 1 UR/Gear in 8 PSPs is 12.5% which is ****. It's become very easy to hold onto my credits until the store goes through a generosity streak for me. I've had great luck and little bad luck since I started doing this. I've had drop rates as high as 50% and in hind sight could have had higher if I had not bought the last few packs of those runs. But, my strategy still paid off. So, I remain on course.

I aim to save 1.2 mil credits because I have never seen a luck streak go beyond that. I have saved up to 1,2, 3, 4, 6, and 10 mil credits in the past. So I have had some opportunity to watch the store's generosity or lack of.

Any credits beyond 1.2 mil, are my testing credits, in sets of 4 PSPs. Even if I'm sitting on a mountain of credits, I don't spend until I play enough matches to be able to buy 4 packs. So, if those 4 packs are garbage, my credits stash has not been diminished relative to when I decided to buy. I have to "work" for the credits before I spend them. They are "hard" earned. So, not to be spent lightly. Should a long generosity streak occur for me, I'm ready to reap it. So, it's worth protecting my credit stash.

The store algotrithm is based on a RNG, no doubt. But, it has been observed many times to have random generosity streaks.

★ Rock Band 3 : Kenny Rogers - The Gambler! - TGN

On a warm summer's eve
On a train bound for nowhere
I met up with the gambler
We were both too tired to sleep
So we took turns a-starin'
Out the window at the darkness
The boredom overtook us, and he began to speak

He said, "Son, I've made my life
Out of readin' people's faces
Knowin' what the cards were
By the way they held their eyes
So if you don't mind my sayin'
I can see you're out of aces
For a taste of your whiskey
I'll give you some advice"

So I handed him my bottle
And he drank down my last swallow
Then he bummed a cigarette
And asked me for a light
And the night got deathly quiet
And his faced lost all expression
He said, "If you're gonna play the game, boy
You gotta learn to play it right

You've got to know when to hold 'em
Know when to fold 'em
Know when to walk away
Know when to run
You never count your money
When you're sittin' at the table
There'll be time enough for countin'
When the dealin's done

Now every gambler knows the secret to survivin'
Is knowin' what to throw away
And knowin' what to keep
'Cause every hand's a winner
And every hand's a loser
And the best that you can hope for
Is to die in your sleep"

So when he finished speakin'
He turned back for the window
Crushed out his cigarette
And faded off to sleep then somewhere in the darkness
The gambler he broke even,
but in his final words
I found an ace that I could keep

You've got to know when to hold 'em
Know when to fold 'em
Know when to walk away
know when to run
You never count your money
When you're sittin' at the table
There'll be time enough for countin'
When the dealin's done

You've got to know when to hold 'em
(When to hold 'em)
Know when to fold 'em
(When to fold 'em)
Know when to walk away
know when to run
You never count your money
When you're sittin' at the table
There'll be time enough for countin'
When the dealin's done

You've got to know when to hold 'em
Know when to fold 'em
Know when to walk away
know when to run
You never count your money
When you're sittin' at the table
There'll be time enough for countin'
When the dealin's done

nicethugbert is right on... the store goes on hot streaks for sure.

My record is around 50 PSPs or so... I went on a 3 week streak of daily play... it almost made me quit playing, seriously.

A bajillion.
