If you use your AP on Expert event runs at every opportunity during waking hours, minus 24 AP for dailies, you can expect about 7 of the Gold material to drop per day.

The silver material droprate is ridiculous, I found 3-4 silver chests for run and always contains useless stuff. (Yes, useless. I maxed all my weapons and eidolons) 30 AP thrown in the dumpster. (50% of my energy bar)

You are extremelly lucky.
Yesterday I got a lot of enhancements from the gold chests and today I don't even got the gold chests at all.

Is Phoenix really light? I find the event kind of funny when the dark team don't get more damage from Phoenix and mooks.

FWIW I stopped running expert this event. Out of curiosity I started running alternating standard and expert, taking note how many gold chests drop. After ten runs of each I had 8 gold for the standard, five gold for the expert. Been running standard ever since and still only three times overall (20+ runs) where I did not get a gold chest. They don't always contain the currency, but neither do the golds on expert. And the rainbow chests are too rare and have a too wide variety of items to be worth it imo, which would be the one reason to still go expert.

Super agree. I wish there was some other way to go about it, I end up running a bunch of other accounts just to start raids for the main one I'm playing, as between the stamina cost, the limit on runs, and the instability of public Raids it's just too much of a pain in the ass otherwise.

lol i guess light doesn't favor me.... or my luck all used in previous event.... so far only 2 eido 1 weapon.... so slow...

Good for you.
