What is the Best Strategy for Summ(on)er Event?

Reference

I don't know if there is any K-I-S-S type short summary of the event, what I think is:

1. 7 Jul - 13 Oct: 98 days
2. Solo objective(s) each day (mainly 10 fights) - NO indication/alert on icon after you have completed so stay alert yourself
3. FTP ok, unlock additional rewards via buying "Resort Pass" and "Resort Pass Plus"
4. Buyer of "Resort Pass" can upgrade to "Resort Pass Plus" starting 14 Jul
5. "Resort Pass Plus" unlock next 7x milestones rewards + bonus set of daily objectives (after final milestone of 2 solo events)
6. Completed daily objective: earn 1 point - hit Summ(on)er Camp and Summ(on)er Resort milestone
7. Tokens available in milestone (4 types) - AG x 2 / Catalysts x 6 / Champion x 4 / Sig Stone x 2 = total 14
8. Owner of pass got double token i.e. 28 tokens
9. Tokens are used in Canteen Store

Strategy:
1. 1st 4 tokens choice: 4* Sig Stone (x1) / 3K 4* Shards (x1) / 18k T4b (x2) - stop buying them after this order
2. Unlocked after spending 4 tokens - spend gradually according to the order to Canteen Store category
3. Next one: T4cc Selector (x1 token)
4. Next one: 5* Sig Stone (x1 token)
5. Next one: 3 x T4b (x1 token)
6. Next one: 11k 5* shards (x1 token)........and etc.

In the start shouldn't it be AG Token instead of Sigs cause there's already 2 Sigs on the way to Prize 14 (5* x30 and 6* x5 Sigs)

Reference

Elaborate on point 8, 28 tokens is NOT a simple double from 14 tokens. The pattern for pass owner is:
AG x 4
Cata x 12
Champ x 7
Sig x 5

A simple way to put it if you bought the Resort Pass is: buy 1 of everything

Agreed

The points I written in another post today:
1. FTP 14 / Pass 28
2. 1st 4 categories: you need to make a choice as you can buy more than 1
3. Thereafter: you can only buy 1 (thus pretty simple for pass owner)
4. FTP's choice is only how much to spend in 1st 4 categories, which affects the subsequent (the better) items
5. Thus for FTP/Pass: only spend 1 per each for 1st 4 categories appear to be the best option

For those newly searching for how to do this, and landing here, not sure you’re first point (suggesting to buy extra 18k T4B item) was updated clearly enough as to NOT do that extra T4B if you are CAV or Uncollected (UC without a pass), else you won’t be able to pick up an item later on.

For reference, @Cat_Murdock thread and Infographics. If you are only “Uncollected” or below (and also depending on “Passholder” or not), there are indeed some extras of those first 4 items that you would be able to buy (since some later items are locked depending on your Progression Title).

But CAV needs to buy ONLY 1 EACH of the first 4 items.
And others probably best to also just spend 1 each right away, until you hit a milestone which is Progression-locked, then spend that same “locked” token type on 1 extra from the first bunch (in order to continue next day with the next milestones). (unless you are planning on reaching those “Locked” titles sometime within these 3 months of the event)
