About gear and time

I suggest:

Do not spend Crystals on any refreshes.
once you get 1400 you can spend crystals to get a full Stun Cuff
Time = Roughly 1-2 weeks depending on arena rank and when it displays in Shipments


If you you spend energy without any refreshes
Time = 1-2 months easily

Sad, but true

Cuffs show up in fleet shipments quite frequently, so you can buy from there too.

Yeah, but fleet shipments is most viable farming source now - a lots of shards and blueprints to farm....

Use refreshes but save 100 from every days arena payout and get them every 2 weeks

OK guys roughly how long will it take me to far 50 stun cuffs using no refreshes and leaving enough energy to complete daily challenges.

Thanks

2 weeks. Completing the 3 hard node whit stun cuff. I'm doing it every day always between 3-5 stun cuff/day. Cost 180 energy

Nobody is going to believe you average a 22.2% drop rate on cuffs. It's more like 2-4 per 240.

I average about 1:7 (maybe it's luck but that's what I get...about 14% of the time I get a cuff).

On average, about 8 days.

Natural energy accumulation: 240 a day
Free energy refresh: 3x45 = 135

Total free energy per day = 375

Minimum amount of hard nodes for daily challenges: 5 * 12 = 60 energy

Therefore, energy to be spent on cuff farming = 315

So 31-32 attempts per day on a 10 node (cuffs are on both LS and DS nodes, so ensure you complete your LS/DS daily challenge when selecting node to farm).

At a drop rate of ~20%, this should drop on average ~6.3 cuff salvage a day

50/6.3 = 8 days

Droprate is around 1/5 or 1/6. So honestly, you're better off spending energy refreshes on cuffs than buying them from shipments. Save those shipment crystals for furnaces, scanners or droid callers.
