$BPKPack
*\1280x720\file1.bk2
(continue for all files I want)
*\1920x1080\*

But when I run the compressor with the method $bpkpack=bpk I get a ratio of 99%, while when manually only running bpk (without $bpkpack=) on just the files in the variable I get 84%.
You only have the files mentioned in the folders.
If you have other strong mask files, they will also be compressed with the default method.

I think it should have the same proportion if it is just the files mentioned, if you are compressing the same files using masks or a filtered compression without using masks.
But if you have better results using normal mode, make use of the Include/exclude + diskspan features present in DSG (only more .bin files will be generated).
