full art foil
just curious how many packs everyone opened/what type of pack everyone opened to get a full art foil? I've opened well over 2k packs i reckon, pulled around 5 ghost foils and like 2 dozen regular full art but still no foil. anything i can do to help my chances?

I've opened about 2.5k packs.
3 ghost cards (literally the 3 lowest value ones) I think 2 were from epic packs and 1 legendary pack
2 full art foils which came in back to back packs (One was a common, the other a legendary)

I have only had 1 card over 1k value.

All cards have a 1 in 20 chance of being foil. There's no trick to it, your first full art could be foil, or maybe your 35th FA will be your first foil one, it's all RNG.

By the way, 20 FA total = 36% chance none will be foil.
40 FA = 13% of no foil.

So your level of bad luck is not crazy.

On the other hand, your 5 ghost cards, that is VERY good luck.

I'll add that on average, we should get 1 FA foil for 1143 packs we open.

So the 1 in 1500 packs mentioned above is pretty much par for the course.

If you're going for ghost foils, the highest chance you have is from legendary boxes (there's 2 sets of each; 1 for Tetramon, 1 for Destiny) The sets are Common, Rare, Epic, and Legendary in order of you unlocking them. From data collected from the Discord chat, the chance of pulling a ghost foil from a legendary box is .005% or 1/5000 and that is the highest chance between all the boxes as of right now. I was lucky and opened my first one on shop level 38, but then my data was lost so now I'm currently trying to re-get a first one. I've seen others get ghost foils from other packs, but this is the highest possibility through probability. Hope this helps you out!

thank you so much for the responses everyone, i figured it was just some lower luck RNG. I probably deserve it, i pulled a few on the prologue game so this probably evens out my luck. I've had 2 cards over 1k in value so it's not the worst luck by any means.

23 hours in and got my first full art foil ghost worth a little over 10k opening legendary packs. Reading this forum sounds like i got damn lucky. Only about 1.5k packs in maybe if that

Not even 12 packs later got another full art foil ghost. Must be the luckiest man alive on this game rn.

I have 80 ghost cards but not a single foil ghost card. I just rip packs should I be ripping the boxes?

Packs and boxes, same RNG. So go with your superstition, whatever it is.

On the other hand, if you want to maximise your chances of ghost cards, open Destiny packs/boxes. They double the odds of pulling a ghost card.

I got the 10k packs achievement recently and have two full art ghost foils . One worth about 13k and the other 17k. 17 total ghost cards - 11 black, 6 white. It's a grind for sure

10k packs, 1 foil ghost, total of 13 ghosts. A handful regular full art foils.

3 FA foils and 1 ghost non foil. Not sure how many packs, but got the 1k pack achievement recently.

I am a dumb dumb. Not only did i just realise that i can already get 2500 cards because you add the 1332 and 1332 together and they are shared across all packs. This also lead me to realise i don't need to pull new cards from 8 different packs. It's 2 sets with both having 4 rarity tiers of boosters. I assumed the 1332 didn't add together because 8x1332=10,656 and my numbers weren't going up that fast. I kept thinking that if i have 1332 available, then how do i unlock the other 1,168 (facepalm).
This is with me being on day 396 and level 96. I know this wasn't explained in game, but i feel so stupid thinking i'm the only one who hasn't realised this yet xD
