Dear summoners, I have made myself a plan on how I would best be able to grind a satisfactory level of units for banquet this year and would like your feed back on how you all like the plan.

Daily super event for 900 units monthly roughly...
Arena, 93 fights between multiple arenas, 20-30k battle chips daily, 2hrs and 5 mins on the game daily..

This plan is feel will get me my goal of 10units alongside any and all other unit collecting sources along the way, but what do YOU all think?

    But to be serious that’s exactly what I’m doing, could do low eqs with my refills but I really can’t be bothered and I’m near 10k anyway, that’ll do me
  • Sunspot3694Sunspot3694 Member Posts: 55 ★
    10k seems like a comfortable amount. Plus who knows what events will take place, maybe I'll unintentionally collect more as I go lol.. but I'll definitely see about more. Idk how much banquet this year will be to enjoy. But 10k seems good to start

    This is pretty much the only way to farm units. Arenas is the most consistent. Running low level EQ every month yields a good amount as well.
    14 hours a week is quite a bit to spend in game for a return of around 1,000-1,500 or so units per week. That's $50 or less worth of units, so at best the time you're spending works out to $3.50/hr in value.

    While thats true. I'd much rather spend time than money on this game. And if come banquet 10k isn't enough, I can always pop out some cash lol.. this is just to minimize the spend lol

    Also, we get around 1170 units from gold track, hopefully we will have one more gold track after the current one ends. Both combined can around 2300 units. Additionally, daily login calender gives 100 units every month. Lower progression EQ gives 621 units every month. Even if we take only 5 months till the event only these 3 things can give approx 6000 units. All the arena, battlechips will be extra. You should be able to collect healthy amount of units by then.

    10k won't be enough for banquet if your goal is to get all the milestones. Last year you needed 15k, upwards to 20k if you wanted all the realm event rewards as well.

    If your roster is in anyway decent with regards to 7* r3s/r2s you can bash out the basic 6* arena in about 30-40 minutes. You can do the same with the featured over 2 days at 40 minutes a time. That's 540 units a week. Let's say you start in July you have 26ish weeks until banquet so that would be 14400 units from arena alone.

    I'm starting as of yesterday.. and so 10k won't be enough then?

    Arenas and doing all the EQ/back issues. I also pay for the daily unit ($5 isn’t bad considering it’s less than fast food).

    I save up to 1m battlechips and pop them into units. You may be wondering, “gee rev, which crystal is best worth my time for units?” So far I can say it’s the Uncollected because it’ll save you some sanity. Here has been my luck with battlechips so far:

    ThroneBreaker per 1m battlechips:
    12/20 - 3k units
    1/23 - 4,125 units
    2/14 - 1,875 units
    3/6 - 375 units (this one hurt)
    3/27 - 1,875 units
    4/15 - 1,125 units
    5/6 - zero units. Almost threw my phone against a wall. This is where I shifted to Uncollected.

    Uncollected per 1m battlechips:
    5/27 - 1,800 units
    6/16 - 2,175 units

    There you have it. Farm arenas, pop those uncollected crystals.

    Depends what you want out of banquet. If you're looking at getting all available milestones then you'll need 15k at least I think.

    But that is easily attainable with just moderate arena grind plus all the other free units scattered around the game.

    For reference, I practically live in arena all year round and do all unit milestones 90% of the time and auto fight all the lower eq and I've managed to grind 18k in two months for j4 after I exhausted all my units on HoF.

    No, standard arena crystals are the safer bet

    I’ve contemplated the standard, but after I do 5 more UC I might go for it.

    Out of banquet I'm looking to pull more 7* champs and get resources to rank them up to r2 3 and 4
  • Sunspot3694Sunspot3694 Member Posts: 55 ★
    I've done all the major story completion, and 100% explored act 8 and what is avaliable of act 9, and I'm struggling with other end game content bc I just don't have the champs. I might have a few sprinkled in here and there, but overall not many champs to help with end game like ordeal, necropolis, epoch, etc...
  • Sunspot3694Sunspot3694 Member Posts: 55 ★
    How many fights does it take to Finnish all the milestones is the 4 star arena and the 5 through 7 star arena?

    And how long does it take to do it?

    I takes me 300 fights or so for 4 star and 100 thereabouts for other ones, that’s in Australia, not sure if people in Finland are doing it faster.
  • Sunspot3694Sunspot3694 Member Posts: 55 ★
    I ask because I'm earning myself 20k or so battle chips a day, but I'm not sure that will be enough to get me 10k units by banquet since the arenas only come back around every 3 days
  • Sunspot3694Sunspot3694 Member Posts: 55 ★
    Will 20k battle chips a day be enough? Or do I need to spend more time?

    The statistical average is 1875 units per million battlechips converted into arena crystals. 20k BC equated to 37.5 units per day. In six months, that would be about 6750 units or so from those.

    Outside of story arcs, Back Issues have a total of 4560 units, and Road to Labyrinth has an additional 360 units.

    I’ve been saving Units since January 3rd. I have accumulated 26,520 so far. I buy the Platinum Track, Sigil, and Collector unit daily card for $5 a month as well. I try to do Arena as much as possible but I wouldn’t say I grind very hard at it. I just started saving Battle Chips a couple weeks ago for the fun of it and have 500k so far. In the about 6 months we have until Banquet, you should be able to get enough units to satisfy your needs…
  • Sunspot3694Sunspot3694 Member Posts: 55 ★
    Awesome thank you:)

    10k is not going to get you everything I spent about 18k units give or take 2k more or so I'm at just over 4k right now going to shoot for about 20k-25k and really start the grind again I went the full 36k for the hof event well was about 34k plus about 38 dollars to max it out
