Doubtful. The EU is cracking down on Loot Boxes, and since Torn currency can be bought with real money all of the supply boxes could be considered loot boxes by some definition. As a result, Torn are taking the proactive measure to ensure that the odds of these loot boxes are published.

NPC Loot or City Finds would not be considered loot boxes and therefore the drop rates do not need to be published

While your being transparent 

 

What is the drop rate for Lint in a coin purse or 63.5k of them to be more precise

Do the weapons caches have the same rarity odds as armor caches? What are the chances for each bonus & what are the bonus quality ranges at each rarity tier? What distribution is used for weapon damage/accuracy/quality?

Ive got 4 or 5 books left, including Ugly Energy, so now there's a chance of getting on with the Prize Selector thing for Elims it makes sense to start participating!

So there's something interesting about Keg of Beer I read there. Each pull you have a 98.5% chance of another pull. So actually the story about people pulling beers out of kegs and listing "used kegs" that only have a few pulls left is a myth, and theoretically you could get infinite pulls!

From the Wiki - Lint is an Other item that has an extremely small chance(0.0011%) of being obtained by opening a Coin Purse.

 

A 0.0011% chance is equivalent to a 1 in 90,909; so you're 9 times more likely to be struck by lightning.

 

Give it another 27,350 tries and report back though, for science.

 

ETA; I didn't read the whole thread and also look silly.

Quartemioric [3375600]

Yes, 0.000121% (1 in 826,446) chance. Wiki says there are 4,393,767 billfolds in circulation so if you were to open every billfold in the game that would happen 5-6 times probably.

I think it is safe to assume that the rarity odds are the same for weapons (Yellow 90%, Orange 9%, Red 1%.)

 

Given that all the weapons have an equal chance of dropping, I would assume all the bonuses have an equal change of dropping. This seems especially true since double bonus weapons have previously spawned with incompatible bonuses.

 

They will not tell us quality and bonus ranges but the data is out there.

The odds page lists the odds of different weapons, but doesn't mention perks. That seems like an omission since that is the value being chased.
