Pro Kit Box price comparison

This article contains recommendations which boxes players should buy, based on the price per item.
For recommendations which boxes to open if players already have them, see Pro Kit Box drop rate comparison and, more specific and based on statistical data, Pro Kit Box statistics: average frequencies.

If a player wants to spend a certain amount of in-game money to purchase Pro Kit Boxes in Asphalt 8, there are several parameters to consider:

the box info that contains the drop rates of the content
(e. g. Common: 19.62 % | Rare: 76.74 % | Legendary: 3.64 %)
the price of the boxes to buy (How many boxes do I get for my money?)

A third aspect is often neglected as it isn't explicitly mentioned, but it's the most important one:

the price per item of the content (How many Pro Kit cards do I get for my money?)

This is the reason why every purchasable box in Asphalt Wiki is usually displayed with the price per item. Example:

Champion Kit Box – Last checked: Apr 28, 2020
"Grants 30 Cards, including one V8 Engine card guaranteed. At least 10 cards will be Rare or Legendary!"

Common: 56.87 % | Rare: 38.53 % | Legendary: 4.6 %
Mean value:

977 per card
Availability: Mastery, VIP level reward

The above enumeration does not mention the guarantees that some boxes have (e. g. "At least 3 will be Rare or Legendary!"). Guarantees are important if players only buy a small amount of boxes because they can be sure that a certain number of cards will be of a desired rarity. The law of large numbers, however, predicts that the average of the results obtained from a large number of opened boxes should be close to the drop rates given in the box info, and will tend to become closer as more boxes are opened. This means that in the long run, guarantees become irrelevant and can be neglected. Only drop rates count.

The first section of this arcticle sheds some light on possible misconceptions about "best boxes". The second section provides sortable tables of Pro Kit Boxes grouped by types and content.

"Best boxes"[]

If a player is looking for Pro Kit cards of a specific rarity, buying boxes that deliver the most rare and legendary cards is not necessarily the best way.

Fusion boxes[]

The most obvious example are boxes purchasable with Fusion Points obtained by fusing Pro Kit cards. Usually, players go for the Ultra Fusion Box † which is the most expensive of the fusion boxes, but guarantees that at least 3 out of 4 cards will be rare or legendary. Overview:

Starter Fusion Box † (

5,500,

2,750 per trial) – Last checked: May 4, 2020
"Grants 2 random non-Festival Cards!"

Common: 84.53 % | Rare: 12.93 % | Legendary: 2.54 %
Mean value:

773 per card
Availability: Fusion system

Extra Fusion Box † (

12,500,

3,125 per trial) – Last checked: May 4, 2020
"Grants 4 random non-Festival Cards! At least 1 will be Rare!"

Common: 63.41 % | Rare: 34.69 % | Legendary: 1.9 %
Mean value:

920 per card
Availability: Fusion system

Ultra Fusion Box † (

22,500,

5,625 per trial) – Last checked: May 2, 2020
"Grants 4 random non-Festival Cards! At least 3 will be Rare or Legendary!"

Common: 21.13 % | Rare: 75.74 % | Legendary: 3.13 %
Mean value:

1,213 per card
Availability: Fusion system

At first sight, the Ultra Box contains the most cards (together with the Extra Box), has the best guarantees and the highest drop rate of rare and legendary cards. However, if players have accumulated enough Fusion Points to buy several boxes and are looking for legendary cards, it is advised to have a closer look at how many cards they will really get.

With 71,500, a player can buy

13 Starter Fusion Boxes †, granting a total of 26 cards, of which 2.54 % legendary ≈ 0.66 legendary cards.
5 Extra Fusion Boxes †, granting a total of 20 cards, of which 1.9 % legendary ≈ 0.38 legendary cards.
3 Ultra Fusion Boxes †, granting a total of 12 cards, of which 3.13 % legendary ≈ 0.376 legendary cards.

Of course, 0.66 as well as 0.376 cards would round down to zero, but it is already visible that the amount of legendary cards obtained from Starter Boxes is much higher than the amount obtained from Ultra Boxes.

The legendary cards obtained for 500,500 are (rounded down to whole numbers):

4 from 91 Starter Fusion Boxes †.
3 from 40 Extra Fusion Boxes †.
2 from 22 Ultra Fusion Boxes †.

If a player wants to obtain legendary cards, it is therefore recommended to buy Starter Fusion Boxes †—despite the seemingly better values of Ultra Boxes.

Ultra Boxes are actually the worst decision except if the player wants to obtain rare cards as can be seen in the following diagrams:

General rule for fusion boxes:

Legendary cards: Starter Fusion Box † – Extra Fusion Box † – Ultra Fusion Box †
Rare cards: Ultra Fusion Box † – Extra Fusion Box † – Starter Fusion Box †
Common cards: Starter Fusion Box † – Extra Fusion Box † – Ultra Fusion Box †

Permanent boxes[]

Permanent boxes are offered in Exclusive Deals and are not time-limited. Three of them are purchasable with Tokens:

Expert Kit Box – Last checked: Apr 26, 2020
"Grants 8 random Cards!"

Common: 84.53 % | Rare: 12.93 % | Legendary: 2.54 %
Mean value:

703 per card
Availability: VIP level reward, VIP only:

1+

Specialist Kit Box – Last checked: Apr 28, 2020
"Grants 15 Cards. At least 5 will be Rare or Legendary!"

Common: 62 % | Rare: 33.49 % | Legendary: 4.51 %
Mean value:

913 per card
Availability: Mastery

Champion Kit Box – Last checked: Apr 28, 2020
"Grants 30 Cards, including one V8 Engine card guaranteed. At least 10 cards will be Rare or Legendary!"

Common: 56.87 % | Rare: 38.53 % | Legendary: 4.6 %
Mean value:

977 per card
Availability: Mastery, VIP level reward

For these boxes, the general perception of the Champion Kit Box as "best box" is consistent with the actual amounts of granted cards:

Only in some cases, when the player hasn't enough Tokens to buy one more Champion Kit Box, the Specialist Kit Box will grant more rare or legendary cards.

General rule for permanent boxes:

Legendary cards: Champion Kit Box – Specialist Kit Box – Expert Kit Box
Rare cards: Champion Kit Box – Specialist Kit Box – Expert Kit Box
Common cards: Expert Kit Box – Champion Kit Box – Specialist Kit Box
