If I knew about it before becoming Cavalier I would've tried saving units to get it before earning the title. A rank 5 gem is still incredibly valuable, especially if t5b are still slow to build. Also depends on how long it would take you to build up the units and your spending habits. For example black Friday deals will probably be based on your title so if you plan to spend you'll want to be Cav. Same goes for crystals, if you spend for crystals jumping from gmcs to cavs is major. If neither of those matter to you and you're not putting it off for a crazy long time I'd go for the deal. I dont spend on crystals but I will on the big days, BF and July 4th, but if i could do over I'd save for the deal.
Also sigil benefits are better for cav if you do the sigil but that somewhat falls in line with the spending portion of what I said above.
Wouldn’t it be wise to grind units and get a bunch of offers on Black Friday to get to 12k (still getting uncollected offers) and then push for Cav ? Or is it still a better value to push for Cav before Black Friday and then inevitably miss out on the gem (no way I’m getting over 11k units in a month) ?
I skipped on it, but it was mostly because I wanted to become Cavalier as fast as I could and didn't want to wait to grind out 12K units. It is an insanely good value considering that it takes a long time to build 2 t5 Basics and 6 (or is it 7? I can't remember) t2 Alphas. You get some other stuff with the bundle too, though I don't remember what it was. I recommend waiting until you get the units to complete it and grab the offer. Alternatively, if you are concerned about the Black Friday deals, you can wait until Black Friday to complete 6.1 and see what the offers are and decide if it's worth it to become Cavalier and buy the deals rather than the 4->5 Gem deal or to get the 4->5 Gem instead. Just get up to 6.1.6 and don't defeat the final sentinel Boss until the deals come out then you can make an educated decision

My recollection is that some people did this prior to July 4: they parked at 6.1.6 and made the decision on whether to complete based on the offers; they had twenty four hours to finish the last map and decide.
I ran up to 6.1.5 when it first came out, then spent a month or so grinding my units up to 12k and then finished it specifically to get the deal. Personally, I think it is worth it for any player with a reasonable way to accumulate (or who is willing to buy) that many units.
Okay thx very much for your answers ! I think I’ll camp in front of 6.1.6 boss right before Black Friday or Cyber Monday (or whatever day it is the deals appear). In the meantime, since there is over one month to go, I will grind arenas to farm as many units as I can. Great combination of your advices ^^ Just need patience !

This is what I did personally. Wasn’t ready for cav without spending when it was released so I held off until the July 4th deals to make the decision. I went with the deals as there was better value IMO but if it hadn’t of lined up as well I defiantly would have purchased the gem. Only have to look at these crazy T5B deals and T2A deals to see how valuable it is Side not by doing this I could have bought all the UC deals, completed 6.1 then bought the cav deals after as well. Crazy daily spend though

Cyber monday are the better offers in this game. There's usually something on BF but not near as good

I grinded for the units before completing 6.1.6. In the meantime, I chipped away a good chunk of exploration for the first five quests, so I was almost done with chapter exploration when the time came to do 6.1.6
