If I am barely scrapping by, having SL 14/8s for my fire grid. But all 5 other element grids are only on average SL5s. Would it not be more beneficial to grab the bow and getting it to SL8 while I work on getting my other elemental grids to SL 14/8 as well? I assume by the time I get enough orichalcum to FLB my typhon lance AFTER getting bow(and getting it to SL8) I would probably, maybe, have just gotten my other elemental grids to have a decent assault SL. Or would it be better to still FLB typhon lance first and dump everything to reach SL30, at the cost of my other grids.

Let's do some simple math about how to raise your grids.

It takes 45 sklvls to raise an SR to lvl 10 and 145 sklvls to raise it from 10 to 20 for a total of 190 sklvls. An SRR is just double that at 380 sklvls. You can reasonably get 60 Rs from the Gemcha daily which means you can raise a single SR every 3 days or an SRR every 6 days.

To get a full SR grid is 30 days, a full SRR grid is 60 days. For all elements that is 6 months or 12 months.

You can raise the R payout by using Grails (to lvl2), Holy Grails (to lvl5) and SR Weapons (to lvl4) first for fodder. Doing this will increase your sklvl per R weapon by 2 to 2.5x. If you did this you could cut the time down to 2.5 to 5 months.

If you do the standard raise SRs to 20 (since it's faster) and then replace with an SRR you will require, at best, 7.5 months to fully raise all your grids.

I would suggest to only raise some of your SRs to lvl 20, keep most at lvl 10 in the expectation that you'll be replacing them with an SSR and push to raise any assault/defender combo weapons as high as you can (including FLBing them) as they will stay in your grids for the longest duration. Other SSRs which are only Assault++ should be raised (if there's nothing else), but they only have 3% more than the SR and should be second priority. SRs should actually be the lowest priority, but should always be raised to 10 (or around 8) for your best bang to buck and eventual usage as fodder. An SR at 8 uses 28 sklvls and returns 28 sklvls when used to raise a different weapon. This is R neutral.
