@xXCibberUniqe2XxI’d contact their customer support. You’re supposed to be guaranteed 1 legendary every 30 packs. If you only got 2 legendary items something went wrong.
- @DarthValtrex He got 4 legendary. I think it’s more ‘on average you get 1 legendary per 30 packs’ because when I opened up my free 110/120 or however many I opened, I didn’t get 2 legendaries in the first 60 but towards the end nearing the 120 mark I got like 3-5 in 10 packs. 2 stupid Bang skins -_-... why... WHY! Out of everything they could’ve given me... Bang skins... ☹️
- DarthValtrex6 years agoHero (Retired)@Koochi-Q I think it’s been updated to guarantee a legendary every 30 packs. I just looked at the store to see what the exact odds are. He should have received 4. Unless he made the purchases before the guarantees of 1 for every 30 packs happened. That would explain it.
I have had some really long streaks of no legendaries, but I also had some streaks of getting 3-5 for every 10 packs. (Random Kenny Rogers song about gambling in the background)
Well, I don't know what you would expect from RNG lootboxes... The numbers do add up... 🤔
- @DarthValtrex Finishers count as legendary though
- @DarthValtrex When did that happen?
- DarthValtrex6 years agoHero (Retired)@Koochi-Q The last 40 or so that I opened I was getting an insane amount of legendaries. Probably a week or two ago.
Or are you asking about the guarantee? I just saw it tonight. I’ll double check tomorrow when I get on again.

@xXCibberUniqe2Xx This is actually about right in terms of drop percentages, although you're definitely missing one legendary item, assuming you've not included legendary crafting metals or simply missed one pop up on screen.
I would recommend doing a double check to be certain and then contacting EA customer support, I've provided the link below, just amend the platform to fit what you play on etc.https://help.ea.com/ca/contact-us/?product=apex-legends&platform=ps4
@DarthValtrex @Koochi-Q There is definitely a RNG protection in place for legendary items and it is 1 guaranteed in every 30 packs opened.
@xXCibberUniqe2XxYou're a very low level and hardly opened any packs that much yet.
I have been playing this game for over a year. The packs I open actually give me something. Also, I purchase all 15 white common skins for every single legend that comes out to get rid of some of my common items. I'll do the same for Loba. This takes 450 crafts to do.
This week, Wattson got a new skin in the store. I wanted to get it. I had 530 Crafts, 2150 coins (coins was for season 5 battle pass). I needed 670 crafts then.
I get 21 Apex Packs. 2 Legendary Items from them (Hemlok and Charge Rifle my first Legendary Skins for those two weapons actually; My sentinel only weapon without a Legendary now). I only got 180 crafts from these 21 packs.
So I get the EA Access for $4.99 then get the 11,500 coins for $89.99 so I don't have to worry about buying anything for over 1 whole year (I plan to get Wattson Heirloom anyway if she gets one). I get 15 Apex Packs, now I have 10k coins left which is being saved.
In the 15 Packs, I get two more Legendary Items, 600 Legendary Crafts which was the 10th pack. Then a R-45 Legendary skin.
At the end of all this, I opened 36 Apex Packs total with 3600 coins. This put me at 1430 Crafts. I got 6 Legendary Items total then from this (4 Skins, + 1200 Crafts to Buy Wattson Required Skin + the Recolor Store Skin which counts as a Legendary).
I now only have 230 Crafts Materials.
Also, from the 36 packs I've opened. I got exactly 36 Blue Rare items from it. Now, there's only 245 Rare items in my current Loot Pool ignoring Loba's Rare Items because I don't know how many she has yet.
I hardly get Epic Items but I got 2 Purples. Wattson's last Banner Pose and a Gun Charm. On my account, there's only like 155 Epic Purple items left in my Pool ignoring Loba's Epics because again, I don't know how many she has.
Epic are the hardest to actually get in my current opinion. Legendaries are slightly easier once you invested a lot of time leveling up and then opening packs.
Remember, I spend 450 crafts getting rid of 15 common white skins for each of my legends.
Eventually, I'll get to the point where I'll get rid of all 15 common skins for every single weapon. Leaving only Voice Lines and Tracker Items as my only common items in the game but I'm not to that point yet. I will say this though, There's only 239 common White Items left in my Weapon Pool. That isn't bad at all. There's 23 weapons in this game and 23 * 15 = 345 Weapon Common items. Roughly 69% left for me to finish once I slowly get those out the loot pool.
Some people think it's a waste to spend your 30 crafts on common items but I think it's worth it. You'll get more crafts from Packs in the future if you get rid of your common items as quickly as possible.
Crafts from Common to Legendary in Packs are as follows 15/30/200/600.
Never purchase Blue Rare Items at 60 and Never Purchase Epic Items at 400. As for Legendary items, only spend 1200 crafts on something that you really, really like. I for example only purchased Legendary items for Wattson (Finisher, 2 Skins). My Wattson only missing one Legendary Skin now but I'll only get it if it ever gets another recolor skin on the store.
I hope this long text helps. If not, I do have a video on YouTube of the 36 Apex Packs I've opened for the Wattson Skin that I was talking about.- @Leo_the_Lion25 A calculative whale. How serendipitous. :D
