I’ve tracked 52 Jennerit packs, got 11 drops. 55 Eldrid packs, got 29 drops. Doesn’t look like a bias, the difference is too high.
I also had a batch of 60 packs of Rogue, Eldrid and Jennerit together (20 of each), got 19 drops from them (haven’t tracked where they were from). Not much we can get from that, but it looks more like Rogue packs have low drop rate too, not 50%.
It does. Skin duplicate rewards you with 500 credits, taunt duplicate is 1000. 1000 is not substitute to 500 + 500 because I got 500 and 1000 at the same time a couple of times and never got 500 and 500.
i spent 58k on Saturday on jeneret packs. Didn’t get a thing. it was amazing.
Considering this game seems to be bugged in what it “calls” from it’s servers I’m not surprised. I’m still waiting on my Coopetition tag even having gotten the 60 kills on a group a number of times in a row on the same day…
That’s not including anything else it isn’t registering. I just happened to notice that one.

Statistically, that’s not really a significant difference, even with ~50 trials. One possibility that should be easy to check though: are there the same total number of skins (and taunts) for each faction? I know when going through the Appearance tab for each character that the lists are different length (not counting premium skins/taunts requiring platinum for purchase), but I’ve never added up the total. Depending on how the RNG rolls are performed when you open a loot pack, it’s conceivable that a faction with more skins/taunts has a higher drop rate. (Plus, we have the original Eldrid plus Alani, but the extra Jennerit won’t be out for a while.)
OK, hadn’t noticed the specifics on that. Makes sense though. I rarely get two of any combination of skins and taunts in the same pack (usually just one of either), but then I haven’t burned through a ton of packs. (So far, the only character I really wanted a different taunt for was Melka, because her default one is just plain weird. It looks ok-ish in the appearance tab, but when you see it in the “line-up” at the start of a mission it looks more like she’s just suffering the after-effects of too much Eldrid booze…)
Can confirm. Eldrid packs were far more generous than Jennerit for me. Jennerit actually were very lackluster, Bought the most packs, but got the least skins/taunts.
Each hero has 2 lootable taunts and 3 skins. Eldrid, Rogue and UPR have 6 heroes, Jennerit and LLC have 5.
So, there might be difference in drop rate, but I don’t think it would be that much. Anyway, UPR and Rogue drop rates seem to be as low as Jennerit (or close to it) despite having more heroes.
YEt Rogue and UPR packs aren’t as generous as Eldrid, even thought they have the same amount :).
and actually it’s 11 taunts and 9 taunts , as there’s a taunt per faction (orendi, miko, phoebe, OM, and caldarius) that can only be obtained with the digital deluxe edition.
It actually doesn’t matter, drop rates should be the same even if there are like gazillion of those things… It’s just that there is a bit bigger chance you will get 500/1k coins instead of a new taunt/skin if you already have some of the taunts/skins.
But the problem this topic is talking about is that Jennerit packs drops less taunts/skins, than the other faction ones. It’s like Eldrid ~20% chance, Jennerit ~5% chance to get a drop. At least it felt for me this way.
they do , since for those characters there’s only one taunt available in the loot packs. There is 6 taunts per character. The initial, the unlocked after a specific lore chalenge, the unlocked at rank 15, the two taunts that are in loot packs OR were unlocked with digital deluxe, and the premium taunt.
Skins don’t have any change, yes.
My only tid bit is that i bought about 32 jennerit packs and 4 elite packs.
An in my 32 jennerit packs i got the taunt and skin i wanted for Ambra, as well as 5 purps and i THINK one legendary that was trash an was sold immediately.
This was my theory from begin with.
