I'd say it would mean 3 bricks. Which seems like a self-defeating argument if you're definitely using them on a specific weapon.

Im definitely not farming 450 weeks of shards to MLB this weapon. Especially since eyes have much better uses.

The other way to interpret is until you find the materials for the 4th LB. In that case...

List of mats:
5 orichalcum (GO drops)
20 wind regalia
20 wind fangs
30 tier 4 stars
15 silver books
10 gold books

Not way too demanding. I think. By the time you get enough bricks from the tower you should have gathered enough mats to 4LB like 3 dragon eye weapons. If you actually have 3 3LB dragon eye weapons that is lol. The irony

That seems to counter conventional wisdom as far as I'm aware.

Event SSR weapons are in a sense, renewable. At least, the advent and the union ones. Raid ones are obtainable by orichalcum, but they don't even have 4LB so their worth is debatable. Then, we add the fact that they generally have lower stats than gacha/ dragon eye weapons. Why would one spend bricks on those?

... Unless I'm misinterpreting (I'm particularly bad with pronouns lol), as I believe I did Slashley's.

It's more like 150 weeks since every event gives you 2 Shards now. Also, if you're in a good Union, then you're going to get like 10+ extra Shards per month from UE, taking total time required down to... 7 months or so? And finally, in theory you can get a brick from Tower events, but realistically you won't until the second one (if I've understood how shit works right).

But yes, obviously the FLB stuff for Hime/Dragon Eye weapons are meant for massive whales only. The tiny trickle of "ooo free shiny is cool isn't it!!!!1" is utterly pathetic.

There are?

Well, Awakenings, I guess. But since our Shard income is shooting through the roof and since you won't have all the Awakened Hime anyway (if you did, Dragon Eyes wouldn't be a problem for you)... well, practically speaking Dragon Eyes are not a bottleneck anymore. Or well, soon won't be. Give it a couple of months and everyone should have all of their Awakenable Hime Awakened. They've demolished the Gem barrier with infinite Gem Quests + Gem Gacha, the SSR book barrier starting from this event (Iluyanka) and the Dragon Eye barrier with Union Events.

Awakening was one, but the guaranteed SSR ticket seems like a better investment. Breaking Eidolon is great and getting new Hime/Eye+break seems like a much better use of eyes to me.

Or is there only one available ever?

Note, guaranteed SSR ticket DOES NOT guarantee a hime release weapon. Add on the fact that if it's a random eye weapon, it 1. will not necessarily fit your element and 2. will not necessarily give you a dupe to LB, you're really playing with your luck with that one.

All the Dragon Eye stuff should refresh daily, I think.

Aside from that, I am very confused by your post, though...
"Breaking Eidolon is great"? What? Gacha SSR Eidolons are complete garbage, aside from P2W ones (which you will not realistically pull) and Kaisers. So any investment in this direction seems... terrible.
"guaranteed SSR ticket seems like a better investment"? 50/50 for complete garbage or a random SSR Hime doesn't seem very appealing either. And this is assuming that they removed non-Hime SSR weapons from this one.

There's also the 5 Dragon Eye random non-Hime weapon, which is a gamble as it can give you utter trash like this shit (Defender/dbl, with a quick glance there was 4/16 chance of garbage), or as Cobble pointed out, you might get something for an element that you don't care about.

So... after Awakening, what is the best way to use your extra Dragon Eyes, which you will eventually start getting now? Not sure, honestly. But I doubt it's the Tickets or the limit break materials, which just leaves the weapons.

I mean, I guess.. Though to me it feels like Hime (for a player like me who doesn't have a lot yet) are slightly more important than weapons with Eidolon being at the bottom, and only one of the tickets in question gives Hime.

I know. But my point was that you can make use of basically anything you get from it. Even if it's an element that you're not good with, you can then start building that element. I mean, the ultimate goal is to have everything, right?

If you pull a new Eidolon, it's most likely useful.
If you pull a repeat Eidolon, you can break it.
If you pull a repeat Hime, you get an eye AND break the weapon.
If you get a new Hime, it'll help no matter what (it just depends on how helpful it will be at the time).

I guess there's the chance of someone pulling a MLB copy, but that's ultra bad luck.
