Ultimate gives you 3-4 gold chest instead of 1 usually for expert. It also has 2*2 waves of trash instead of 1*3 which means more common ingredients. So yeah, it makes farming a lot easier.

I understand that some ppl feels discouraged (and it will be worse next week with raid event) but i think its a matter of priority :
There is events constantly, with an interval of 2-3 free days each time.
If you're low on power, there is no point trying to full lb items, because its a pain in the ass and it will be a pain in the ass again next event.
You'd better buy the low prices items, and focus on lvling up your team.
Note that Medusa effect arent that great (both passive and when summoned), so its not a big deal if you don't max her since you'll be able to replace her soon or later.

Few advice to lvlup your team effectively :
Focus on an element. Its better than changing your team each time to match the strongest element vs what you're fighting.
Having a secondary team which cover your element weakness can help a lot though (Water / Wind, Fire / Thunder)
Lvlup your chosen kamihime with SP daily quest.
Create 1 (or more) alt account to host raid of your chosen element. Standard boss is advised for weapons and mats farming.

Ofc you can still choose to play casually, and only grab 1-2 copy of each item, and forget ultimate completely. But farming expert intensively is nonsense imo.
