How is peoples luck with War Avatar Packs?

Seem to notice more recently that the newer cash shoppers seem to get S card every 5-6 packs while the more veteran players don't get rewarded as much. Just interested in finding out peoples luck ive opened up well over 300 B - S packs from FSP coins and catalysts, promo code packs, spend reward packs and around 500 C - S packs from boutique. Still haven't gotten an S card and its probably been over 2000 Gold I've spent trying so far. b:laughb:laugh

The one I have was my free one for 10 A avatars b:victory

    I bought one S pack from the boutique ages ago, and got an S card. Any since, not so much, though the freebies from the log in event I did get another S card so now have 3 random S cards.

    I opened 300+ (Didn't count exact amount and I have a lot of characters/accounts) B-S packs from this freebie and got a few S cards out of it. Only 3 of them were on characters that they did any good for though.

    My luck at everything pack related is terrible. I can tell you that after all this time doing FSP and even buying fsp coins for both A and B/S Packs and catalyst for the b/s ones.

    I only have arround 25 A Cards of which like 9 are Dura and 8 Destroyers.

    The only S Card that my main have is the one when you get 10 A cards, and guess what is durability too.. Just a few days ago I opened 30 A packs and got 0 A cards b:angry

    But to make it even worse I have toons that are not even reborn or 100 and get S cards from those free promo packs b:laugh.

    My Archer Alt have 3 S but at least that one is RB.
    One blade that i use as a joly alt have 9 A cards and 5 S b:surrender

    Yeah so at this card thing my luck sucks b:cry

    I think I've just found domeone that has even less luck than I am.

    As for the guys, that got an S card after 5-6 packs it can happen, but I'm not sure they would get 60 S cards after 300 packs anyway

    This last promotion, only opening the freebie S card packs, I got 2 s cards and an A card right off the bat. On the character I wanted them on. Granted, both S cards were for the same slot, but still. Not bad luck.

    Got a nice Soulprime S card for my blademaster main from this giveaway. Works out nicely since I have just a loose A card there now - just need some more leadership to actually use the damn thing. Beyond that, my catshop got one of the nuema portal set. Derp. And one of my jolly alts got themselves a random S, forgot which one.


    In total I've ran this event on about 27 toons.

    Oh yeah i know that. I just mean it how say every time they purchase packs maybe once a week on pay day and they buy roughly 10 packs, it just seems they always get an S. I buy 50 of them and be lucky to get even 1 A card. Just seems the longer you play and more you spend, the less you are rewarded.

    I know my sin date is 2013 but i played the beta on Veno and moved to archo in 2013 by making a new account which ive since made my main. I still charge the gold on my veno then trade packs to sin (unless it charge or spend rewards in which case i charge on sin)/

    Ive opened 1k+ S packs easy and never gotten an S card out of any of them

    the two S cards i have 1 came from the free one for 10 A`s

    the other was for winning a spend event raffle...


    for the longest time i did every event and did everything i could to try and get an S card..
    now i realize its like the OP says..and if your a cash player your odds are horrible..

    I`m an easy 400 spirit behind most people in the same armor/shard/lvl range as myself and im almost certin ive opened far more packs than 99% of the players

    Because of this i stopped spending money in PWI and stopped logging in...as even if i finish 105/105/105 i`ll still never be able to compete agian without some form of S card set...

    This Invivible luck thing is BS..i 100% think PWI has the ability to pick and choose who they want to actually get anything out of card packs and if they think you`ll spend more they lower your odd`s...

    So now im just periodically watching to see if they Merge Harshlands...
    I`m not even logging my shop anymore...whats the point ? i made and spent 15b trying to get S cards(didnt get a single 1)..thats not counting the cash i spent...thats just what the shop did..lol

    Dont get me wrong...ive done well..good gear...almost full dietys..full +10 with some +12`s

    But none of it matter if you cant get a card set...until then your just a 1shot..

    My sin has 5 S cards, 3 of which are destroyer and 1 each dura+ battle ._. But that's out of only 75 or so B-S packs and freebies (10x A cards/event giveaways etc) so overall I say I've had decent luck, though my DB has 2 from just freebies+C-A packs for the 4 extra xD

    Holy hell man...you got it even worse then me o.o

    That is the main reason why I skip S-Cards and suggest anyone to do the same. Sure I opened ~2.5k A-Packs on both my Barb and my Storm to get the Six Candleflames A-Card set (which is extreme bad luck...I know people needing only 100 packs for the full set and an average of ~700 Packs in general).

    The Set provides nearly the same stats on 40/40 compared to random s-Cards 80/80. Considering this and the high chance to rb them (which males them quite a bit stronger compared to S-Cards) it is clear that one should skip S-cards.

    Either way...the money you and I spent on cards alone would have been by far enough to full +12/deity a new char. Crazy.

    I have 18 S cards in total for now, god knows how many packs I would've opened.

    Usually I get 1 S card out of 150-175 B-S packs from FSP - This is the average rate in which I get my S cards

    I am well aware that, people who do not have much S cards get a good chance of getting S from the B-S packs, and a bunch of alts got S cards from the recent promo. I strongly believe that having more S cards reduces your chances of of getting a S from B-S packs b:shocked

    This card thing is all about luck.. either you lucky or your not, i popped 32 b-s boxes a few days ago got 1 S card.. Is it worth it i doubt it,why? you pop some more what if your luck is bad an you get the same slot card you got before.. They might as well put sets in botique an let people buy their sets one time.. I have been trying for a year now have i gotten a S card for each slot? NOPE!! in my eyes is a pure waste if you have really **** luck

    My luck is extremely shifting when it comes to these packs. I got only one S card from the login event, and it was Astrid from the Nuema portal. My free S card from the 10 A was one in soulprime slot.

    Which I will never use because I'm building the candleflame set. Only 2 missing now (soulprime and lifeprime)

    Never going to try to get more S card, because getting the last two cards for the A set is hard enough...

    I can agree on that in an extreme level. Both my Barb and my SB got the Six Candleflames Set. I am fully farmed on any aspect...I needed 2.5k!!!+ A-Packs on both Chars each to get the set. They have been pretty equal unlucky. From the point I only needed 1 card for both I needed around 900 A-Packs on the Barb and 1.2k A-Packs on the Storm. I also needed to reroll the r9rr weap of my Storm 27 times to get mediocre stats. Been missing one skill for my Dusk out of PoF. Tried 30 times since then to not the the one skill out of 6 I need. Everytime I tried opening packs I've been left off with a huge loss.

    So ya. Non-CSers should stay away from luck related stuff as much as they can...but oh snap! You can't to be competitive xD

    The money I already wasted on luck related stuff...man...without overestimating it...that could've been 2 full +12 r9rr chars at least. But ya know :p keeping oneself busy xD
