EMERGENCY MAINTENANCE
There was an issue with an offer that sent out a surplus of Tier 7 Basic Catalysts.
While the Game Team investigates a way to remedy this issue, we will be putting the Game into Emergency Maintanance.
We do not currently have an estimate on how long this will take, however, we will let you know as soon as we know anything.
Thank you for your patience.

The only way to get points to earn those milestone rewards is to open Omega crystals. There are three kinds of Omega crystals: Cavalier Omega, Paragon Omega, and Valiant Omega. Cavalier crystals earn you one point in Alpha milestones. Paragon and Valiant Omega crystals earn two points in both Alpha and Omega.
There are two ways to get these crystals. You can buy them, just like any other crystal. Or you can earn them during the Omega event. The only crystals you can earn (that we know about) are the Cav Omega crystals. You can earn up to 34 Cav crystals in a Delta mission (which will be one of those “defeat champions to earn points” type thing).
So to start, you can earn 34 Cav crystals and open them, and earn 34 points in the Alpha milestones. If you look at the Alpha milestones, you will see that the 20 point milestone awards four Omega Paragon crystals. If you open those you will get eight points (two per crystal). These are Paragon crystals, so you will get eight more points in Alpha, and if you qualify for Omega you will get eight points in Omega. That takes you to 42 points in Alpha, and 8 points in Omega.
At 35 points in Alpha there’s five more Omega Paragon crystals. So if you collect and open those, that’s ten more points in both tracks. So you’d then go up to 52 points in Alpha and 18 points in Omega. At 50 points in Alpha, you’d get five more Omega Paragon crystals, and opening those gives you ten more points again. So now you’re up to 62 points of Alpha and 28 points of Omega. There are no more Omega Paragon crystals in Alpha. But you’ve gone all the way up to 28 points in Omega, and at the 10 milestone in Omega you get two Omega Valiant crystals. Opening those crystals gives you four more points, so now you’re up to 66 points in Alpha and 32 points in Omega.
The ping-ponging back and forth is over, because there are no more scoring crystals in Alpha. But Omega still contains Omega Valiant crystals *and* units in higher milestones. So from here, the question is: do you spend units to buy more Omega crystals to score more points? If you don’t, here is where you stop. If you decide to buy more crystals, you will then earn more points in both Alpha and Omega, getting more and more milestones. Complicating things *slightly* is the fact that since Omega still contains crystals and units, the amount of units you spend to get points sometimes gets a bit jumpy. It costs 300 units to buy an Omega Paragon or Valiant crystal and they each award two points when opened. So if you want twenty more points you have to open ten more crystals. But if you cross a milestone that contains, say, two crystals, then instead of needing to buy ten, you might need to buy only eight, and get two free, to get those points. My table incorporates those kinds of effects, as well as spending units you get from milestones.
can't wait!
I vaguely recall it used to be 18k units to get all 3 typical tier levels, but I know it changed to have 'bonus' items or having to clear out a certain tier to unlock some special offer. But is there a general amount?
I'm wondering how many units I should protect for July, and how much I could spend for Omega.
I did read the whole thread. Since the OP claims that he is only providing data to help others making decision, explanation is irrelevant. Neither the summary or the table posted in the first post were able to point out the most efficient amount of units to spend to reach certain milestone. The table should look like below if the goal is to provide data to help others.
That seems honestly more confusing to me, however, different people find different ways of structuring data more or less transparent (the thread already contains several other ways of showing how the milestones flow), so if that helps anyone, fine by me. The numbers themselves do seem correct at a glance, since major milestones line up with both my original table, and the others floating around that have the same unit spend conclusions.
I think if you want to do it all in one go, you need to buy 28 Valiant crystals for 8400 units. That will get you 56 points, plus the 44 points you're going to get for free in Omega, which gets you to the 100 point milestone. Then you'll get 2700 units from Omega milestones, which will mean you will have spent a net 8400 - 2700 = 5400 units. 8400 up front, 2700 refunded back as milestone rewards.
*trick is just grinding arena for years and never spending a single unit*
I bought 28 Valiants, completed Delta missions and opened everything for that.
As you can see I have 102 points for Alpha and 68 for Omega.
So if you spend 27900 net units, on top of spending all the units you collect from Omega up to that point, and open all the crystals you earn up to that point, you will be sitting at 300 points. Then you get 10 more crystals, and when you open those you will end up at 320 points, and then you'll get 3000 units. If you spend those on crystals and open them you'll get to 340 points. So you can get there with 27900 units of spend out of pocket, plus all the units you collect from Omega (9400 units).
Once you're in that deep, I'm not sure why you wouldn't buy ten more crystals and get to the Omega AG, but YMMV.
