Advanced Packs only drop uncommon weapon mods after all other uncommons are maxed. 6 chars/40 guns:

I thought this was more or less common knowledge?

Your OP title says "after" all other uncommons are maxed, but your screens show that they're not maxed. It's bad luck to get mods "before" all other uncommons are maxed and It really sucks. How many packs did you get that only contained weapon mods?

They really fucked over new players with the reskinned weapons and veteran character cards. I was able to finish the uncommon cards in less than a week, including the mods, but now it would take a month or more.

And buying mods from the item store is terrible since there's three times as many now. It'll take a year just to finish collecting the uncommon ones.

I doubt older players care. They don't know what it's like when a post-nerf Vanquisher 2 is your best weapon and a scope is your best mod. I made a thread about how Remnant weapons should be moved down a tier, but there's plenty of stuff at the silver tier that could go down, too. (Zalkin, Mattock, Phalanx, Incisor, Disciple, Kro Engineer, Asari Sentinel, I'm looking in your direction)

Seems to be more... uncommon...

I'm sorry if I sounded like that I didn't believe you. I do. I'm just confused by the title. I thought you should rarely get weapon mods if your character and weapon ranks aren't maxed out in that rarity. I've gotten mods once in a while before character card and weapon card were maxed out before 1.09 in the packs which sucked. I guess I'm just not understanding what's happening.

100% agree with your point about the pool being diluted, but the Asari Sentinel is awesome. Better than some gold characters IMO.

Maybe it`s more problematic with weapon variants.

Yeah, I'm glad I got all the uncommons maxed before the change! I realize that newer players face a host of problems getting the right equ. That's why we don't kick out every pug.

The mods released before 1.09 still drop in regular packs. The mods released with 109 come in item store, those are labeled as mod variants, I believe.

Just out of curiosity: how far along are you with those mods?

I know this feel. I've spent a little over 2500 funds getting common varient mods... just another 3000 before they're complete and I start on the uncommon tier (which will cost 11200, in case anyone hasn't realized it yet)
