Pro tip : Do NOT spend duplicate collection items as soon as you have enough (4 in this particular collection) to obtain a single new one.

Instead, collect as many unique items as you can then check how many items you are short and see if you have enough dups to complete it.

Eg if you've obtain 17 out of 20 items and you have (3 * 4) 12 or more duplicatess ONLY THEN spend the dups to complete the collection.

Otherwise, if you spend you're duplicates as you obtain them, there's a risk that you'll spend them on a item which may drop later on ... and you've now got another duplicate instead of a potential unique item.

I figured out, but thank you anyway. Next time I will ask here first instead of doing anything.

That is why there is an article for that and the crates have a description.

And one does not need to collect cards to know how collections work...

 

And if you just finish the missions chain, there is a good chance to finish the collection.

Do you mean article that writes this:

In total, you can obtain 42 standard containers in Update 12.0

This number of containers is sufficient to complete the collection.

 

Because this may not be true and there is no information about possible duplicities.

 

And I am not gambler so I am not interested in good chances.

 

Edit: there is info about possibility of duplicities. My bad.

Thank you ColonelPete

And above that it reads:

Quote

Collection elements can only be obtained from standard and Premium "The Age of Sa Zhenbing" containers. The exchange rate for duplicates is 1:4.

Neither am I.

It probably is sufficient - we only need 20 items.

These collections can normally be done for free - I've never used wallet money to complete one.

Just be careful, as I pointed out above, to only spend you duplicates when you have enough to complete the collection.

Oh, you got me there. So my bad. 

 

Thenk you for correction.

 

But still do not understand, how 42 cont can suffice for 20 items. May, but not have to.

Basic statistics. If you want a 100% guarantee, you need 1+19*4 crates. That is 77 crates.

but the probability is very very high that 42 containers will be enough...I ran a simulation with 1.000.000 tries and only 22 needed more than 42 containers...
