Yes they are in there(to help nerf them a little bit), but they aren't actually as common as they are normally.(Which could be a good or bad thing, it really just means you shouldn't get them as often as normal)

The reason why Crescent Crates were so much better for getting Legendary items(and others), was because most of the items were not added to it's drop table, unlike item crates, which would automatically go through the global drop table and add items to it's table.

So Crescent cases have fewer items to attempt to roll for upon opening. I added one new tier to their drop table, with a lower chance to acquire than normal(much lower chance), I felt it would be best this way. What you see in the display is not entirely related to the chances to receive the items you see(only for speed purposes, there is no trickery to make you land next to a rare item).

My whole thing behind it was I pay extra for the crescent to not roll a common tiered gun, that screenshot I took was what I landed on so it wasnt "OMG A COMMON IN ITEM THINGS!" I explained it to Jake as well, I rolled 2 crescents and got 2 commons thats why I took that screenshot was because when it slows down it went from a 'normal' crescent style with rares, uncommons, and such to just commons. It wasnt me feeling there was trickery , just me feeling that the point of a crescent lowered (In my view)

I fully understood your point, I was just giving some insight on some of the stuff 'behind the scenes' of the cases, and kind of hinting that it could be worse if I left the single Ordinary tier at it's usual rarity, rather than upping it by x10 in crescents. I also forgot to mention that there's actually a 1 in 3 chance to discard the ordinary if it original rolled it, causing the case to continue attempting to roll you an item until one returns successfully.
