I think Arsenal Packs are the way to go, if you only have UR slots left to fill.

Agreed. Arsenal Packs are much less likely to drop character cards in place of the level 3 consumables you actually want as well.

From my own personal experience I think the chance is (close to) zero to dropping character cards in place of level 3 consumables for Arsenal Packs. Where as PSP felt like 1 in 4 packs, whilst RP felt like 1 in 2 packs.

In hindsight if I wanted to pimp my N7 rating whilst still trying to get ultra rares, I should have brought recruit packs till 255 rockets, medi gel, thermal packs, ops and then brought RP packs. All that lovely character XP. <_<

I'm calling B.S. on BIOWER, the RNG, and PREMIUM SPECTRE packs!!!!

Spent 1 mil on PSP and got 0 URs... spent another mil on assorted packs SP, ARSENAL, RESERVE and got anudder 0 URs.

WTF?!?!? My BIOWER dev hostility level has changed from YELLOW to ORANGE.

Yeah, I don't remember ever seeing a character card drop in an Arsenal Pack but I couldn't be sure.

Best go with SP and RP. It's a good thing to promote when going with RP cause they tend to drop a lot of char cards. Also don't go on a buying spree if you don't have at least 1 mil credits.

I got 3 URs from 3 consecutive SP yesterday, and the funiest thing is I got exactly what I wished for.

Spectre and Arsenal packs ftw.

I find I've had more luck from SP's tbh. I know I dropped a few mill on psp's, rp's and ap's and got nothing but level IV ammo, but once I switched to buying sp.'s the UR's seemed to drop more often for me!!

This is probably just the sort of weirdness you get from a small sample size. Supposedly, according to MANY, MANY documented purchases, the UR drop rate is higher in Arsenal packs- meaning, if all you want is URs (you don't care about character cards or consumables), you should be buying AP's.

Because it's random you get these dry spells of no UR. I had to spend 3.2 million once before I got an ultra rare . There are many ways this could have been addressed:

1. Have a pack (say costs 500,000 credits) which contains at least one ultra rare
2. Keep track of the last time the player got an ultra rare in a rare slot. If the number of rare slots without an ultra rare reaches 20 (about 1 million on PSP, RP, AP) then give an ultra rare.
3. Continue weekend challenges where effectively your award is an ultra rare.

But these haven't been done.

Regardless of what you need, Spectre Packs.

Yeah, I went several weeks (many millions of credits) without seeing a single UR, then I got 3 in 2 arsenal packs. Its like playing cards- you get on hot streaks and cold steaks, but in the end it averages out.
