Ive decided to start noting down the common/uncommon/rare/u.rare distribution Im betting from expert packs.. So came home from work ready to open 649400 credits worth.. Notation: number equals 'rubies', so a 4 is an ultra rare, a 3 is a rare, a 2 is an uncommon, and a 1 is a common. 12 'expert' packs went as follows: 31 31 (Vanquisher I) 31 (Vanquisher II) 33 (Vanquisher III) 3 33 (Talon III & Pistol barrel I) 4 (Black Widow II) 31 (Vanquisher IV) 3 321 33 (Pistol barrel II & Equalizer II) 421 I have been rather furious with the Vanquisher being evasive previously, with me having insurgent VII and not a single Vanquishers.. so I guess there were a lot of it left in the RNG pool I loooove these expert packs, but as you can see, uncommons are somewhat absent.. I guess I will be scooping up some 'advanced' packs at some point.. <script charset="UTF-8" src="chrome://YTAutoHD720p/content/YTAutoHD720p.js" type="application/javascript"></script>

Its about the only non UR things i dont have maxed 😑

I actually got the Disciple to X and all other uncommons to X with advanced packs. I’ve been going from basic packs on up as I complete each tier. Advanced packs have been great as not only do they allow completion of uncommons but also drop a good percentage of rare items (24 drops for me with Advanced packs so far). I did notice that no uncommon gear dropped with an Advance pack until I had maxed all uncommon guns and characters to X. Then they dropped with each advanced pack. Of the 24 rare drops with Advanced packs none these were rare gear so uncommon and perhaps rare gear does seem to be gated in this way. Just using advanced packs, I’ve unlocked all rare characters and all but three guns. So far advanced packs have been good choice but of course I don't have a single UR character or gun.

So, was it a fluke.. just opened the next 7: 3 31 31 31 31 3 31
(nothing special whatsoever. Mostly kits. My rares are soon at X, Looks like the game gives you kits first, then guns, and lastly mods..)

Some more: 3 3 4 3 3 3 32 3 3 4 32 3 3 3
Seeing no more commons, I opened a basic pack at this point, and indeed - supplies only.
Giving raise to another worry. If I continue this, I will max out rares before uncommons, making advanced packs even more lackluster, but last resort for completing uncommon bracket..
IOW, if you have to buy advanced packs anyways, you ought to do it while you still need some rares (and some commons too, ideally, but too late for that now).
Out of curiosity I bought my first Premium pack too:
