you're right on the preference, but it is clear from this that we're actually given a break to farm for resources, no different from a star rush, yet everyone throws stamina away on rushing event WHEN THERE IS NO CLEAR NEED TO DO SO.
I'm out of pro-break team from now on. screw breaks, nutaku aigis doesn't need them.
(I'm referring to those who would benefit from breaks and those on the pro-break team skipping monday daily in favor of event even though they likely need gold and exp armors)

Not sure how others do it , but i can talk for myself. I assumed i would only need a couple runs to complete th edrop and then do dailies. That was the case on 1 account. Got my julian , then i started doing gold dailies. Standing at 17 gold armors right now and 1 plat.
The other account was unlucky , and while i do need the gold , this is also the older account that already has a maxed core team , so i can skip a whole monday daily.

Also , i should remind you that the "pro breaks" team asked for breaks between real events in a period of time when we didn't got no gold rush , no star events , no nothing. Personally , i'm okay with a new event right after this one , since we had a pretty long break coupled with a gold rush. We're not supporting months long breaks either in case you missunderstood.

EDIT. PS: there is also the fact that rng can be a bitch. Are you certain you will have the luck/stamina to get all the units , assuming you skip a couple of days ? I am not for 1. I've had terrible luck at times and honestly speaking ...i'd rather drop 70-100k i usually make in a monday and be certain i manage to get all the units , then get pissed that i don't have enough stamina for that on the last days. I think a gold unit is worth more then 100k , don't you ?

I agree with Lolix, I would rather miss out on 100k gold (with my luck I wouldn't even get a plat armor) than miss out on a gold unit. At the moment I'm 20 stam in and I still haven't gotten the completion reward.

Took me 26 Stamina to get enough drops for Julian. The silver fairy just wouldn't drop for me. I agree with previous posts the drop rate is pretty awful.

The worst part... I already have Julian and I don't use him, nor can I use him for CC.

You can either cc him and use for skill up on Katie/Jerome if you use, or use for awakening when it finally comes out over here.

I was thinking of using for Katie to hopefully make her cheaper (plus XP as part of it). Seems that would be the best course of action right now. Thanks for posting as it helped with seeing my options.

I don't regret burning 1 SC to get him as its freed up the rest of today's stamina to go gold/XP farming. 1 SC for a gold unit is a bargain, especially when I was given the SC by 3 starring the map.

well , i agree that 1 sc aint much , but we still have 2 weeks for it. I don't recomand using scs till the last days , if you're very unlucky , but that's just my opinion

4 runs on daily, got 1 Plat armor. 8 runs on GR #1, still no Julian.

except there is no need to get all the gold units. not all of them are necessary and some of them can be skipped, like garrett (since there's bernice) and iris (good to have but not critical since you're only gonna be using her as CR/SU fodder)
but we already gotten 3 more days then the jp, so there's no point in not farming monday daily, especially for those newbies who're struggling to catch up and could do with more gold to level units through RtR and exp armors for their higher level units. 14 days instead of 11 is literally a break thrown in our faces. we used to ask for breaks so we could farm resources, but now a break is given to us and we don't farm for resources?

also, under your 'miss 70~100k' logic, you'd also be willing to miss thursday daily for thursday's map which would result in newbies delaying their spica/saki.
trying to rush up a julian right on 1st day even though we have 14 days is pretty stupid, IMO. especially for those don't have the luxury of actually doing so.

I actually wasn't going to skip Thursday because demon crystals are much more useful then 100k gold. Also 28 stam in still no completion reward.
