Unique Variant maths

Hello!
I wanna get a rough idea of how much certain UVs are worth but somehow i´m too stupid to calculate. I want to see how many tries Punch will probably need to craft certain UVs.
So to get a 90% chance to have 2 specific med+ UVs on my sword, how many attempts with the 2* Ticket will i need?
Let´s assume we want CTR and ASI at least med and UVs have a chance of 1/3 to be med or higher.
How to calculate this?
Thank you very much!

I once wrote a detailed guide for UV costs at Punch. As the warning at the top says, I need to check some of the calculations. But the single-UV costs are right, and the double-UV costs are probably right too. I don't remember.

Don't do it that way. Instead buy 1-UV tickets until you get one of the UVs that you want, and then start buying 2-UV tickets, locking the first UV while you try for the other one. See the section on double-UV strategies. Your expected cost is 1,779,410 crowns.

thank you both, especially the guide Bopp linked is pretty interesting!

glad to help
Maybe this will motivate me to finish the darned thing. Happy travels.
I do know a guy who got ASI and CTR high/very highs on all his main weapons and it cost him 63,000,000cr.
