I submitted to the will of the forum poll and spent all 7.3 million credits.
73 Reserve Pack Purchases Results - 17 UR = 23.3% UR drop rate - 13 UR Character Cards to 4 UR Weapon Cards = 76.5% character card drop rate
UR Cards - Human Kineticist XIX to XX - Batarian Vanguard XIII to XX - Kishock Harpoon Gun III to IV - Asari Duelist XVII to XIX (tempted to spend 960MF to get the card to XX) - Piranha Bulwark I - Valiant VIII
As for Rare weapon variants, I got the following to rank X
Concussive - Equalizer - Hornet - Talon - Vanquisher
Siphon - Hesh - Katana - Predator - Revenant - Sweeper - Talon - Thokin
Bulwark - Reegar - Shadow - Sweeper
Overall, a little disappointed that my drop rate wasn’t at least 25% or higher, but that’s RNG for you. Wish I could have gotten the Duelist to XX to complete all the UR characters, but I figure I can spend some mission funds or just wait for the Reserve Pack pity timer to kick in (next pack will be #8). Time to grind some more and build up the credits again. Took me about 10 days to amass 7.3 million credits.

Well, lets look at the facts. Are you going to be playing the game until the dataminded characters are released, if so, then yes spend your $$$, you'll make more back as you play. Now if your going away and literally just want to try out the new dataminded characters when they are released playing solo (because no one will still be pugging) then save your doh.

And it’s done. Did the Platinum APEX match and three Gold Remnant Zeros to get 300,000 credits and hit the 10-pack Pity Timer. All my UR characters are now at XX!
And I pray that Bioware keeps the Artificer, Juggernaut, Guardian, and Commando as Rare characters.

I have too many level III and IV siphon and bullwark common weapons to buy than to save up for something good. Probably one of the most boring pack openings was when I spent ~6 million on uncommon packs to get all my uncommons done after the "big dumb bloat the loot pool" patch. My APEX rating skyrocketed, but boy was that a boring 20 minutes of my life.

My APEX rating skyrocketed, but boy was that a boring 20 minutes of my life. My remaining Rare loot pool is lower than my Uncommons. I calculated it would take 3-4 million credits of buying Advanced packs to max them out. I decided to take the slow route and get the occasional Uncommon drop with my Premium packs.

Across the last 5 days, my chance of UR card has been 17.6% based on the packs that they appeared in compared to those that just gave 2 rares.

I would just spend it. If you play the game hardcore (and it seems like you do), you can easily make 7-10 million a week. this
