Consistent Duplicates in Lootboxes

Has anyone experienced getting duplicate after duplicate in lootboxes? I have most of my heroes at 65 or above in unlocks, but I feel as if they are still many basic things I could unlock (skins, emotes, etc.). I don’t mind filling my gold up for the next event, but after opening 5+ lootboxes with either gold or dupes it just seems a bit weird…

Somewhere between level 400 and 500 you already have about 70% of all items and reach a point where all items coming from loot boxes are duplicates. About 1 or 2 items out of 10 loot boxes will be new “legendary” items that are dropped with lower chance. If you are lucky then one of the items might be pile of in-game gold (50 or 150 or 500) that you can use to purchase some of the items (or most of them during the anniversary event).

DUDE…Duplicates make the game free to play for about 99% of the players pls dont cry about that jesus… Like just farm gold and buy all the event stuff… You dont need normal overwatch items since you will eventually get everything from the normal loot box… I Love duplicates, they nerf’d them a year agol and it was hella noted… I filly support that the loot box work in that way. Its just the better for the long run.

Ill be on Hearthstone you open 50 pack’s and after that you will only see dupplicares unless you hit epic or legendary. On overatch you have opened at lest 400 lootboxes looking at you level. So its to be expected that you get duplicates… But ill tell you now, the best thing you can drop from the standard loot box is the legendary gold chest…

The gamblers are paying our monthly subscription fees. Not too long after I started playing I had 90% of the skins and other items I actually wanted for my favourite heros. They are rather easy to purchase from in-game gold.

Like i only waste my game currency on the last day on an event.
They changes lootboxes 3 times by now.

The 1st lootbox 1.0 droped a lot of duplicates so it was supper good.
Then they fixed the chance to get dup dup legendaries and epics to 0% and it was a nightmate in the lootobx 2.0. personaly id much ratter get 10 legendary duplicate skins so i get gold then to get 10 normal loot box legendarys that i wount use. And on the 2.0 changes people started complaining that they had 0 game currency for events. And that was just terrible.
3d change 3.0 set some the chance to get dup legendarys and epics again but its not as good as it was in 1.0(can’t remember the probability for this but its no more then 5-10%) meaning tha 1 out of 10 legendary skins will be a duplicare and that chance is increased more by the number of legendary skins you own.

Ill be they only did that cause people cryed about dups for some reason. Yet they will most likely end up getting a skin, intro or emot that they won’t ever use or get them for a hero they don’t play.

Its better to get more duplicates meaning more currency leading up to move event stuff.

I don’t know what part came across crying, I was really just curious. Thank you for your opinion though!

Excuse my internet culture of calling anyone completing a cryer.
That was indeed out of line.
