Jesus. I'm jealous. I want that much AP ammo. I keep getting useless Cryo and Disrupter.

I think you are confusing AP with AP ammo. Those are Arsenal Packs. The IVs are whatever level IV consumables I'm getting as I don't keep track of that stuff.

Well, I might as well try my luck with RPs, as my AP UR drop rate is closer to five percent than 20.

Really? Well, I'll tell you that I maxed out my manifest opening only Arsenal Packs. That would be some 40 URs in a span of 2 to 3 weeks. I have played a lot though with the explicit intent of maxing my manifest quickly.

It was insane, actually, now that I think about it. At times I got 2 URs in a single pack and sometimes URs back-to-back. If I were to put a guess, it was somewhere about 1 UR every 5 Arsenal Packs.

I wont be buying any more packs until they fixed the limitless Quarian/Turian character card drops from the store. Thats because these block both Rare slots and i wont even get level IV ammo.

According to Bryan Johnson's post you'll only get 2 "wasted" rare character cards (which is still bad), but not limitless. Have you or others had more?

Ah i see. So if i already got 2 of those then they should not drop again correct?

You shouldn't get more than one of each, assuming you already had them maxed. I didn't at least.

I had 13 Turian Havocs (see pg. 14 for proof)... but this was the day the Retaliation DLC was released, so it's probably been fixed.

I've got 5M (and growing) in the bank that I'll happily devote to APacks and RPacks. At the moment I'm holding out for the DLC. I'll also $buy$ a set of packs in support of the DLC, so my total will be a pretty good one. I'll link up with randomfoo's sheet when I make my purchases.

After 3 consecutive UR-s on 2 days my luck seems to have "stabilized" lol. Meaning i get 1 Million = 1 UR. Spent 1.3m and got 1 UR. Spent 900k and got 1 UR and so on. Thats with RP-s by the way. Considering i have aquired 57 of possible 120 total UR-s and it takes 1m (translate that to 1 day of gaming), then i will max my manifest somwhere around when summer begins in may-june. By that time it will have taken 1100 hours and 2500 games. 63 to go and 63*1=63 days=2 months+add a little time for upcoming DLC UR-s and before you know it's summer.

That seems a little high. It should be much closer to 500-750K / UR, or you have really bad RNG luck. What do you spend on? Just PSPs? Just APs? Just RPs?

I used to buy just SP-s. When RP-s came i started buying those along with the occasional JEP-s to replenish my consumables. So currently RP-s only.

General question about PSP's.

Do I suppose to get character training cards in PSP's when all but one character class is level 20? I have bought 9 PSP's on yesterday and today and got 5-6 character training cards for about every class there is.

EDIT:
I have unlocked all characters and their appearance options long ago.

My manifest, hope link works: social.bioware.com/n7hq/

Well they were a couple of days apart. And I've had five double UR PSPs. I just had no clue how to buy packs right from the start and spent way too long on Bronze due to my internet connection back then. That's why I'm still not maxed yet, despite such 'good' luck.

Not quite sure I understand your question, but by the looks of your manifest, you should just be getting Level IV consumables and UR weapons in packs (as you've maxed everything but URs).

Sorry about poor grammar. Yeah, I thought I should not get character training cards at this point, at least not so many of them.

Just wondering if there is something funny going on, because for last 25 AP packs I haven't got UR weapon. For last 18 PSP's I have got one UR weapon. I just started to buy RP packs, though I have purchaced just two by now.
Anyway, my current ratio for getting UR weapon appears to be 1 per 45 packs.

This is nowhere near the average packs/UR ratio I have used to get.

You can still get vanilla human training cards in the 2nd (or 3rd, my memory is fuzzy) slot of PSPs, APs and RPs, regardless of what level that class is at. Being level 20 in a class does not prevent getting gold character cards either like it used to. They patched that a while ago to stop when the maximum unlocks have been achieved (it was around the time that level IV consumables were introduced).

I'm not sure about silver character cards though...

I started a new project: 7 UR-s a week. Goal is to get 7 UR-s in a week. Some days i might get none and other days i might get several but the overall goal is to acquire 7 by the end of the 7 day period.

Project started 3 February 2013 (Sunday). It has not been a full week yet but i did make some conclusions:

03.02.2013: Saber V
04.02.2013: None (Didnt have time to play)
05.02.2013: Black Widow VII
06.02.2013: Cerberus Harrier VII & Typhoon V

So overall 4 UR-s over 4 days. So far so good.
Currently at exactly 60 of possible 120 UR-s.
Buying only RP-s (Buying one by one when i have the money. Not in groups). 5 Million reserved for DLC. Wont touch that.

Training cards I got were standard human characters, no silver or gold cards so they weren't taking "UR slot".

It still appears funny that I got so many in a row and that happens at the same time when my UR ratio per purchased packs has fell to 1 UR / 45 packs. I will continue experimenting with RP's.

This is awesome. Just got 3 URs from 7 reserves packs. Harrier IX, Paladin V, Harrier X. My life is now complete.
Also got 13 missiles from a JEP. Thought that a little odd.

Edit: Make that 4 in 11 RPs. Particle Rifle VIII.

hi there ... thanks for your info though, but if i take a look at my ur weps (85/120) i guess i'm pretty unlucky with that .. (almost bought only psp by now). I'm at 682 hours... so yeah maybe if get a little lucky i can get it between 700-800 hours to be finished - will switch to aps now ... bought 4 yesturday - no ur in it .... but will keep on ... game's fun most times (therefore i'm PUG-Player, most times)

fun fact: unlocking charackters was no problem for me ... got at least one card every pack i bought most times even 2.

But i got javelin on 10/10 and my human infiltrator fkin loves it so - i don't need black widow either way XD

Yes, as you said. It appears funny because there is no link between suddenly getting more normal human characters while getting less URs. URs can only supersede the two rare slots. You are simply going through a dry spell, while randomly getting more normal character cards instead of some level II or III consumables.

Yes, good! Anecdotal evidence (and the sampling in this thread) does suggest RPs are the best to quickly get URs at this stage.
