***UPDATE***

-> Slight drop in UR rate: 18.2% -> 17.5% for RPs. Since the last update I bought 47 RPs and 2 APs.
-> Unlocks this update include: Geth Spitfire IX & X, M-7 Lancer VI through VIII, Bloodpack SMG VIII, and Venom Shotgun V.
-> RPs still have the best drop rate, and the lowest credits per UR.

  Congratz!  Enjoy it while you can, it'll probably never happen again (I'm a pessimist).  I've only ever gotten 1 double UR pack, also from a RP.

Thank you for this thread AI.

I used your method to go from 28 UR's to 6 in a matter of around 3 weeks using Reserve Packs. It was amazing!

Then.

Reckoning came out, and Reserves Packs have B**** Slapped me in the face since then. Hard. Almost like a payback for how well I did Pre-Reckoning.

I have had such terrible luck since the new DLC, but when I do get an UR it is usually in a PSP.

Ummm yeah. I have never received an UR from RPs, but have had a decentish drop rate with PSPs (1.5 URs per 10). May be just bad lick though....

Got me wondering if they vary the drop rate by region/time zone.... Maybe that is just tinfoil theory, but trying to figure out how over 5mill on RPs the xperience could be that varied....

***UPDATE***

-> I'm thinking of making a separate chart in the OP for collaborative data (with the same format as the chart with my own data). I'll be sifting through the pages of this thread and compiling the data people have provided, tallying up the results, and calculating drop rates.
-> The thing that has kept me from doing this is the possibility of people providing unreliable/false data which would therefore skew the overall results... but I can just provide a side note under the chart stating that "data may be unreliable" or something to that nature.
-> If I was technically adept enough, I would formulate an online spreadsheet so that individuals can enter their own data, but alas I am not and will therefore be attempting to do this all myself.
-> This will probably take me a long time, and my schedule is getting busier and busier now that exams are approaching, so this may not be finished until May (haha). I'm just bringing it up now in case some people would like to make a contribution in the future weeks/months.
-> Thanks to everyone that has already provided their own data - I will be using this as a starting point.

Cheers!

i know what you mean. I've gotten two, and on back-to-back days. Paladin X and Indra IX in one, Indra X and I don't even remember what the other one was. Probably the Venom shotgun. It is pretty forgettable, after all. 
And as of a few days ago, my pre-Reckoning inventory is maxed. Until they added the promotional weapons today, I only needed 21 URs. Hopefully I can finally upgrade my Hurricane VII now. Haven't gotten one of those since around November.

I just spent two million on PSPs and got a single Hurricane VIII.

Have they gutted the UR drop rate?

For anyone interested in the accuracy of these drop rates:

Treating each rare card as an independent event, we can construct confidence intervals for drop rate per rare card:

Using the Clopper‐Pearson confidence interval at 95%:
PSP: 5.656% to 10.14%
Arsenal: 3.596% to 12.34%
Reserves: 6.821% to 12.94%

If we make the assumption that all the packs have the same drop rate:
PSP + AP + RP: 6.706% to 10.01% (@ 95% confidence)

Based on this data I don't think we can conclude much about the drop rates of PSP vs AP vs RP, unfortunately

  Thank you for this.

However, for one person, achieving a level of confidence that provides an acceptably statistically significant set of data is near impossible - it would take around 5000 packs for each (ie. 5000 SPs, 5000 PSPs, 5000 RPs, 5000 APs).
-> For one thing, I would max out my URs long before purchasing that many packs.
-> For another, buying that many packs would cost almost 2 billion credits (I haven't spent 80 million yet since August - which was 7 months ago, and I'm 100% positive I did not spend anywhere near 1 billion in the 6 months prior to that).

I hope to alleviate some of the concerns about sample size by formulating a collaborative data set for PSPs, RPs, and APs, which will hopefully provide more statistically significant results.  However, like i've said before, collaborative data has the flaw that the provided results may be unreliable and/or false.

Wow, been a long time since I've posted here. Ever since my last post:

509 Spectre Packs -> 40 URs
447 Premium Spectre Packs -> 73 URs
11 Reserve Packs -> 2 URs

Look guys, this was awesome of the OP to put together, but the sample sizes are WAY too small to get usable results. When you're dealing with percentages in the 5-10% range, you'd need a sample size of 10,000 or more to get a representative correlation.

On top of that, I highly doubt that Bioware really went to the trouble of programming in a different UR percentage for Reserve packs as opposed to Arsenal and PSPs. Seems odd that they would go that route, no?

Edit : just saw someone say something similar above. Either way, thanks for putting in the effort, OP.

Well, unless the reserve packs are actually detrimental to unlocking UR cards, there is really no downside.

That said, inspired, I bought 7 last night and nada. My drought passes 3 million and rising.

Probably been said a hundred times before, but why...WHY...can't Bio-Ware simply tell us what the actual numbers are so we can make an informed choice as to what we spend our credits on? I mean, how hard can that be?
