    man, it is a gamble. and i dont think theres anyway you can boost ur luck, as i normaly open 100-150 locks monthly, end up getting 1/2 mythic, usually nothing better-.. but as the new cap are hitting arcane in late feb id consider u to stack up them locks/plats just incase there're a double odd weekend for new pets or maybe new gear! heh, try n enjoy on whatever u decide dude

    I belive that if you save your plat and sell your locked you will pretty soon afford to buy your mythic or pets.
    Much better and less bassed on luck.

    Thats what I have done. And i have mythic and a lot of gold without spending one single IRL $$$....

    Yet half the people run in mythics and there's hardly a city map without someone showing off their arcane staff.

    Back to OP, if I opened crates I would open a few at a time, not a large batch at once. It seems there are lucky and unlucky times for everything, and if you hit unlucky time, you spend all plat for nothing.

    Half? Maybe 5%.

    Only open them on those "Double chance" events. It may seem better but even double is very low; 2% of 0% is still 0%

    Stock up on locked. If farming, open 3-5 a day, sell the rest, repeat.

    Remember, you are paying real $ for a chance to obtain a pixel on a screen.....

    Drop rate for mythic is 1/100 and arcane 1/1000. So I can confirm that if you open 5000 locks, the chance of getting no mythic is smaller than your walking in garden one day and hit by an asteroid
