What I've done is max out my stuff tier by tier. Early on, I bought Recruit Packs until I maxed out all my blue-tier weapons, which didn't take very long because the Recruit Packs are cheap. After that I moved on to Veteran Packs for the silver-tier weapons, and I didn't get any of the low-tier weapons because they were already maxed. I just recently maxed out all the silver-tier weapons that way. On the way, I lucked into a few gold-tier items and characters, and I also detoured and got a few Premium Spectre Packs; I ended up with most of the high-tier characters just by chance. I'm now buying Premium Spectre Packs for the last few gold-tier characters, and for the weapon upgrades. I still don't have all the weapon mods and gear I want, but I have most of them now, and I think it's worked out fairly well.
