Super Packs are available on the Auction House for 10 million inf each. Opening a Super Pack grants a number of rewards; a player could find anything from inspirations and reward merits to enhancements and enhancement boosters, unslotters, and catalysts, or even experience and patrol boosts, and more.

To use a Super Pack, open it from the Salvage window. After claiming a Super Pack, it will open a new window with five images that look similar to playing or tarot cards, face-down.

There is an option to toggle on and off automatic card-flipping at the bottom of the Super Pack window.
