    From a guide I posted on my faction forums a looong time ago:
    You can get 10, 20, 30, 40 or 50 items from 1 pack and the rates are found here: http://www.pwdatabase.com/pwi/quest/10122

    So in example:

    We buy 100 battle packs

    theres a 26% chance for 10 items -> 26 • 10 = 260 items
    theres a 23% chance for 20 items -> 23 • 20 = 460 items
    theres a 21% chance for 30 items -> 21 • 30 = 630 items
    theres a 17% chance for 40 items -> 17 • 40 = 680 items
    theres a 13% chance for 50 items -> 13 • 50 = 650 items


    So from 100 packs we would (in theory) get 2680 items which is 26,8 items per pack on average.

    So yeah. What lylfo said.

    Most of the people I know averaged about $160-$180 to get a nix or herc.
    I post in forums. This one and others. That's why I post.

    lolz i dont know about the situation in heaven's tear but yea, sof is one of the more merchantable stuff in dreamweaver with less competition. there are tons of people merchanting packs and tokens already QQ.

    b:chuckle all those venos with all those coins they have saved up, if only they know that buying the packs themselves is the cheapest way to get their sof and nix feathers
    -most veno would have saved up for a battle pet sale like this, but it doesnt seem to be that cheap this time.

    good luck banana.

    theres a 23% chance for 20 items -> 23 x 20 = 460 items
    theres a 21% chance for 30 items -> 21 x 30 = 630 items
    theres a 17% chance for 40 items -> 17 x 40 = 680 items
    theres a 13% chance for 50 items -> 13 x 50 = 650 items

    So from 100 packs we would (in theory) get 2680 items which is 26,8 items per pack on average.
    However, my slightly rusty math skills come up with a standard deviation of +/- ~13.6 items per pack. So, it wouldn't be uncommon to get an average between 13.2 and 40.4 items per pack.

    At 50 silver per pack, that's $124 - $379 for 9999+ Source of Force and Phoenix Feather items, with $187 being the average.
