Re: Lord Of Walkure
Considering that she has a max power of 37k and 10% time reduction and only requires 40 levels to max out that's pretty nice.
Throw in the wind girl that gives 30% bonus to wind cards and she's at 48k.
Don't really like the cost but her SR+ form costs about as much as a regular SR and shaving off 10% time is worth the extra gold.
You can stack multiple time-reduction bonuses. Right now I have a horse that reduces it by 12% and her 10% skill. The event dungeon only requires 3:54 hours, which is approx. 22% deduction.
Card leveling
I'm farming event stage 10 for wind cards and 10 of them pushes her from level 1 to level 21
Sort of understanding how card exp works

So the level 50 SR books that you can get through exchange provides 46 exp (or 69 exp for same element). Of course, you should always get the same element unless you were desperate.
To get from level 1 to 21 you need 120 exp.
When I fed 10 level 12 wind cards to the wind girl, she went from 1 to 21 with 0%, which means each card provided 12 exp.
Looking up the card exp table for level 12 same element column, you can see that it's 12 exp.
After promoting to SR+, I dropped another 10 lv 15 UC books expecting to get 150 exp. According to the table, at 150 exp she should be at level 22, but instead she's at level 18. Must be an additional factor that I'm not considering.
Farming gold
For free players, questing and pvp is pretty much the only source of gold during the event.
Depending on your set up, farming low-level explore quests might be profitable if you don't want to try the event explore quest for tokens.
For example I can spend 1k to get great success (wind R+ and another wind gives 50k power) on the first explore dungeon, which usually gets me several equips worth about 4k. So every hour you can get maybe 7k on average depending on your party.
The best event stage to farm gold is stage 6, where every 18 minutes you have a chance of getting an item that sells for 1920 (or the event item, which only sells for 1200). For pvp, I'm rank 10, so if I lose I still sell for 2k. So say every 20 mins you can get 4k gold, so 12k per hour on average.
Token exchange efficiency
Now you know that you can either get a lv 50 SR book for 30 tokens, or a lv 15 UC book for 5 tokens.
Is it better to get 6 UC books or one SR book?
Looking at the table, a lv 15 UC card of the same element provides 15 exp, for a total of 90 exp per 30 tokens.
A level 50 SR book provides 69 exp.
So why would someone choose to get an SR book?
Well, because using up 6 cards is 6 times as expensive as using one card, so if you're strapped for cash you might consider just getting the SR books cause you're only short 21 exp anyways. For higher levels, where a single card might cost 3k, you might choose to do this.
However if you are swimming in gold or it does not matter then getting the 5-token books is better.
I've only got 200k gold left and have 600 tokens, so I can get 120 books. Now...I don't think I'm going to be able to afford the training unless I divert all my resources to farming gold instead of cards.
