 I've been playing the Multiplayer for a long time and I notice something recently.

In the last week or so I have spent about 2 million credits (give or take) buying Arsenal packs and PSPs and I still have not been able to complete the reckoning mods.

And I do not remember the Ultra Rares being this hard to get. In the last month alone, spending about 5 million in total and I can actually remember the Ultra Rares that I have gotten.

Just one. The new Blood Pack Punisher. (Excluding the comemorative packs Ultra Rares)

I must admit that this is getting a little ridiculous. I understand that the Ultra Rares are meant to be hard but to only get one in the last month?

Mind you the older Ultra Rares, the  Harrier and before I have gotten the to about Mark V but I also realize that after a certain point which i think was November, my Ultra Rare obtainment has become almost none existent. And my Rare slots are just packed with Mark IV gears. They are nice but its starting to get a little stale.

I wonder if maybe the guys could come out with an Ultra Rare pack that... I dunno maybe cost 1 Million Credits but guarantee that you get an Ultra Rare?

Because I am getting very bored of the game very quickly because I do not get any new toys to play with and you can only remake the new characters so many times.

Any one else also having the same situation?

If by "anyone else" you mean "everyone else", then yes.

[Badpanzer]

I have played nearly 1000hrs and over 3000 games and I dont have a maxed manifest yet and Im not bored with MP3 yet.
I will max out my manifest Im sure but it takes a long time and thats the way it is.

[Devoidparanoia]

I have no problem with the drop rates just STOP GIVING ME COMMENDATION WEPS, I only care about the crusader out of those! I don't want a Valkyrie VI I just want stuff I don't have!

I’ve spent about 5 or 6 million credits since the DLC came
out, and have yet to see one of the new URs. Out of every (let’s say) 4 PSPs I’ve
purchased, 6-7 of the 8 rares have been ammo, while 1-2 are the rare mods that
I have left to max out. It’s incredibly annoying, so I definitely feel your
pain, OP.

[WarW1zard25]

Trust me, OP, ur not the only one frustrated. There's a million and one threads here with people having the same issue. I'm personally tired of not getting my first Harrier unlock. I use it in the campaign and love it.
I went through a UR dry spell for a while and then one Sunday morning the not-so-RNG gave me like 10 UR's. I've seen patterns in unlocks that have slimmer odds than winning the Powerball jackpot 3 times in a row.

Start buying a variety of packs regardless of what they say - I think the Lancer is only in PSPs, and you'll find more luck switching from reserves and arsenals too.

[Rotacioskapa]

Reserves pack has the highest UR drop rate. You can find a thread about it. I maxed my manifest a few days ago with reserves packs.

Wow, I haven't seen this topic come up since about 12 hours ago.
The RNG gods have been both good, bad, and indifferent to me.
I waited 4 months to get a Black Widow, and went 6 months between Hurricane upgrades.
On the other hand I got the Particle Rifle to X very quickly, and had regular Harrier upgrades.
I've had neither super-lucky streaks nor long dry spells.

All I can recommend is get a good team / hook up with some BSNers to smash out Plat games regularly (if you don't already). Remove certain DLCs if you have a preference for what UR you want to get. Buy PSPs.

Welcome to the club of the unrewarded. Having clocked ulmost 850 hours and enough credits to wage my own galactic war and I am still minus the Venom and Punisher and still have not maxed a single UR.

I now find myself running Platinum just to rake in the credits and I hate how little fun can be had on Platinum. Luckily, my love of Mass Effect MP keeps me going. I think Bioware are delusional about players dropping the MP once the max the manifest. Yes some will, but many won't. For me, it is a great way to pass the time and isn't nearly as stressful as a few player Vs player games I could mention where general gamers get owned constantly by those who play nothing but those games. Not my idea of fun.

It would be nice if the game kept track of how much you are spending and if your luck was running low triggered a drop after a certain amount. A sort of minimal reward system. The way it goes, I will likely stop playing this game regularly before I max my manifest.

[k1ngl1ves]

I'm trying to collect 255 of each Level IV consumable. That way, I get pissed when I get a UR.



Perspective is everything...

Yeah, this is how I feel ( 1,200 hours and 3000 matches ).    I had my manifest maxed before this last DLC, probably spent 25 million since its release, and still have 20 unlocks to go.  However, even when I had a maxed manifest I still enjoyed playing because of the fun of the matches, not just unlocking stuff.

[MindAssassin]

I've already cut my playing time dramatically. My manifest was nearly done when the DLC came out with its 4 URs and I thought, "damn, that's a lot.". I was prepared to grind it out though. Then they threw the promos into the mix and that was just demoralizing. I hope I can someday regain enough momentum to finish it all.

Yeah, I'm feeling that; though it's as much to do with the lack of new maps as the addition of new weapons.

[bogsters23]

maybe i'm just one of the lucky ones but i seem to get a lot UR's. i play regularly and it seems i get at least 1 UR almost every night i play. it took me approximately 23M to max out retaliation before they unloaded the promos. then i max everything again last night/ but i'm not sure how much i used maybe around 6M for the promos left. i had droughts too but it evens out when i unlock a lot of UR's on the next wave of PSP's i buy.

i just want to share so we can get an idea how much credits are needed to max out stuff.

[Jiubei]

thnx Rotacioskapa. I tried buying the reserves and to my surprise I was able to get the mods now which was what was bugging me mostly.

Its good(?) to know that I am not the only one going through this. I do wish that Bioware would at least ensure we get the Mark I of the UR weapons so we can get a taste of them.

Yeah I dunno, on the one hand, it’s been positive for me, in
that I’ve gone back to playing Silver and Gold for fun (and not credits), but
on the other hand, I’ve had such a streak of bad luck since the DLC hit, that
combined with all the new URs, every time I do spend credits, the results are
crappy enough that I start thinking about all the other games I’ve got on my
backlog that I should be playing.

feeling similar. Lost a lot of momentum from the days that I was getting upgraded URs and was excited to try them out. 

[IanLai]

 Extremely unlucky.  I've gone through ridiculous dry spells.  Then last night I got 4 ultra rares in 5 premium spectre packs.

Keep plugging away and they'll come.

[Admiral Dreck]

I'm at 16 URs in the last 9 days.

Doing fine.

[FluffyCannibal]

I think I've got 2 of the new UR's and I have no idea how many credits I've spent, but it can't be very much. I buy AP's as soon as I've got the credits (I don't hoard credits and buy loads of packs at once) and I've always had a steady UR drop rate. Now if it would only give me the Harrier upgrade I want its be perfect.

[Kuato Livezz]

Everyone hears you. The RNG was very kind to me when the final DLC came out, but since, it has been rather average....maybe 1 UR for every 1.4 million spent. Just when I think I'm going to stop for a while, I get a UR and it sucks me right back in.

[billy the squid]

Welcome to the club mate. It really depends. I bought 3 packs and got 4 UR, came back a few days later and dropped almost 1 million credits and zip. Lots of lvl IV equipment. It's a pain in the arse.

[jamdjedi]

I got all the UR's that I like to use Scorpion and the Valkire.. going to give the Hurricane III a shot.

got the N7's that I like to play with Fury, Shadow and fatty McOrbs Volus Adept. So everything I get at this point is 'bonus' for me.. Playing MMO's since MUDs I'm aware with drops/grinding.. this isn't anything near true grinding at all
