Difference between AT enhancements in Super Packs?

Hi everyone! I just have a short question, I hope! I got a bunch of the Super Packs, and some of them had AT enhancements on orange cards, and some of them had AT enhancements on purple cards. When I look for them at the merit vendors or at Wentworth's, I just see orange AT enhancements. Is there a difference between the ones you get on the orange Super Pack cards versus the ones you get on the purple Super Pack cards?

Thanks for your help!!!

Nope! They're the same. Orange and purple on the cards are rarities, just like rare (orange) and very rare (purple) IOs.

edit: Meaning, each pack rolls to see what cards you'll get. The orange cards and purple cards both can give you the same ATOs, though the purple cards also give other rewards that the orange ones don't. ie, 100 reward merits instead of 75, a very slim chance at a Black Wolf vanity pet, etc.

You can upgrade the orange ATOs to purple status if you use an Enhancement Catalyst though, and it turns into a Superior set with a bunch of upgraded bonuses and enhancement values, about the equivalent to existing purple sets. Once you upgrade them though, you can't trade them or auction them.

Wow, thanks! That makes it a lot clearer! I was thinking whenever I opened one of the purple cards with an AT enhancement, "Oh wow!!! I got a PURPLE one!"

ATOs are of the Rare (Orange) level of power, even the ones that come from a Very Rare card in a Super Pack, since, as has been discussed above, both the Rare and the Very Rare cards pull from the same ATO 'pool'. (Although, a few of the ATO Global Set Bonuses are either greater or less than normal Rare level of power.)

ATOs can be made into a Very Rare (Purple) level of power with a Catalyst.

Generally, the Very Rare cards have the "good" enhancements (Quads and procs), and the Rare cards have the weaker ones (Doubles and Triples). There may be some exceptions, but when I've been paying attention while opening packs, that's the trend I've noticed.

That's observer bias. The full set of all ATOs appear in both rarity tables.

They are exactly the same. All of the archetype enhancements are in the Rare cards, and all of the archetype enhancements are in the Very Rare cards. They're even in the same order. Check the wiki link from upthread for a listing by card number.
