which card pack to get?
The gold pack is so expensive at 60000, compared to the bronze pack at 5000, even though the only benefit is the guaranteed gold card, whereas all the rest are random like the bronze pack.

All I want are the high level foil cards (permanent ones), don't really care about gold consumable cards. But there isn't a pack that guarantee their drops, but it seems that higher level foil cards drop more in gold pack than bronze pack (for example, level 5 weapons, all skills outfits, food and warmth cards for endurance.)

IMO, the other packs aren't really worth the extra cost. I've spent ~250K credits so far on only the bronze pack and I have a ton of gold and foil cards. I'd say the drop rate of gold or foil cards from bronze packs is close to 1 or 2 from 4 packs, which comes close to the price of the next tier of pack.

yeah i spent all of my cions or w/e on gold packs...if i could do it again esp knowing (if above is correct) the bronze arent rigged to be completely crap id just get as many cards as possible.

Bronze isn't crap at all. I just bought 3 more and here's what they contained..

OMG that last one was amazing!

What I want are the foil cards. I play mainly endurance and I hate the cards that disappear after one use. And since I play for fun, trying to survive as long as I can, I really don't care about the score multiplication. I wish I had that luck, usually the foil cards in the bronze packs are pretty poor, like lv1 and 2. But damn that last lv 5 assault rifle card is amazing!

yeah that's exactly what I thought. Since there's microtransactions behind, I thought the dev would just rigg the bronze decks.

Bronze pack. I think foil cards have equal chances in any pack.

I agree that bronze pack is completely fine, because you will have lot of foil cards from them. However, now, I have 130 foil cards already, so now I have new foil in one of 10-20th pack. I think, Gold pack can start to pay off for me in near future, when I will miss last few unique foils, since I can gave one guaranteed new foil in gold pack. At least I hope guaranteed rare meens foil, not just blue 5 star common.

For some reasons, every bronze pack now gives me at least 3 level 1 hunter/survivor card. Some times all 5 are the same cards like this.

They allow you to customize your games outside of the campaign. You can use your cards to make the game easier or harder.
For example, in chapter replay and replay elite, you can use the "infinite poison arrow" cards to grant yourself infinite arrows. But using cards that strengthen the enemies or weaken yourself will give you more bonus points, for example the card that doubles enemy armor strength.

In endurance mode you can give yourself weapons, skills, gears, bonus, and all the above so you don't need to start the game with no skill no weapon etc.

I've noticed that since you can have only 3 of a specific card. After grinding enough credits to buy bronze packs you eventually get nothing but gold/blue cards. Which is great because you can keep selling those and buying more packs as many times as you want.

oh my gosh seriously??? That would be awesome because I will stop selling all bad cards, so I won't get them anymore!

Yes, do it. I gained 25k credits in about 10 mins by rinsing and repeating the same.

The way it happened to me was.. My inventory was full and I was unable to open any more packs. So I used up a bunch of good cards in a round. When I opened a pack the next time, most of those cards popped back up. I was looking for the 125% score modifier foil card (doubt it even exists though) and had a ton of credits to burn through, so I kept opening packs and selling the cards that came out and only after a while I noticed that my credit count had been increasing all the time. So I suppose you shouldn't sell off your bad cards and hold on to them instead because if you don't, they'll come back and it won't do you any good if they aren't worth much.
