How many packs do you need to open?

My kids are finally getting to the age where I can start playing Redemption with them, so we may be getting back into the game. Does anyone know how many packs you statistically should have to purchase to get one of every card for the last couple sets? I couldn't find this information anywhere, and the last sets I purchased had only one rarity!

Thanks,
Ken

For Cloud of Witnesses and Revelation of John, there is exactly one Ultra-rare per box. Therefore you would need to open 3 boxes to give yourself a chance of getting all 3 ultra-rares. However, my suggestion would be to start with 2 boxes (48 packs)--that will likely give you a complete set minus 1 ultra rare (or 2 if you happened to get the same one in both boxes) and possibly a couple of the rares, but certainly enough duplicate rares that you could trade for the rest. Obtaining the third ultra-rare will depend on which one you need. The Second Coming (CoW) and Three Woes (RoJ) are the big "chase" cards from those sets, but the other Ultra-rares are not that difficult to obtain.

Or you could hit up long time players trying to cut down their collection and help their playgroup have more tournaments!  :P  PM Sent with slight details.
