What act to go through during Summoner Week?

I'm still not uncollected. Just finished act 5.1, and only have the final chapter of act 4 to explore (first 3 chapters are 100%). Should i explore the rest of act 4 (due to the decreased energy cost) or take advantage of the 10% boost and shoot for 5.2?

if you havnt done 4 do that...... the decresed energy cost will save you a [removed by moderation] of time / energy refils.

the 10% boost probs wont make that much of a difference to act 5

Get the act 4 exploration rewards and they will really help to do Act 5. The reduced energy will help you speed through it

Only reduced energy for act 4. Make use of it.

Act 4. I've saved 600 units to buy energy refills and make a dent into it's exploration. Im just missing 4.3 and 4.4, and based on my calculations... even after this event I'll be missing like 1000 units to explore it

A 10% attack/HP boost is 90 units and lasts 20 minutes. I don't know how long 5.2 takes, but it's probably reasonable to think you could do it in 40 minutes, I guess? So 180 units * 6 maps is 1080 units.

If you really grind and use all of your natural energy, that's 240 energy per day * 7 days / 70 energy = 24 refills. Dropping the cost from 3 to 2 is effectively a 50% energy boost, so if you use all of your natural energy, it's basically like getting 12 refills, which equals 360 units.

So, in terms of unit savings, it seems better to do 5.2, but this analysis also assumes a 10% champion boost will make the difference between being able to do 5.2 and not being able to do it, and that's probably a bit of a stretch. If you're right on the edge where 10% will make the difference, the Act 4 rewards will probably get you there too.
