Hmmmm.....a 80% drop rate on a 20 energy node is pretty flipping good. So lets do some math.
100 Energy = 5 Shard (Give or Take)
500 Energy = 2 Star Unlock
1,000 Energy = 3 Star Unlock
2,900 Energy = 5 Star Unlock
6,600 Energy = 7 Star Unlock
So probably 6800-7200 Energy to Max
That is going to be quite a bit of energy.
Your math is slightly off. Since it's 0.04% drop rate per energy, that's equivalent to 25 ship energy per expected shard.
Stars | Shards | Ship Energy
1-star --> 10 --> 250
2-stars --> 25 --> 625
3-stars --> 50 --> 1250
4-stars --> 80 --> 2000
5-stars --> 145 --> 3625
6-stars --> 230 --> 5750
7-stars --> 330 --> 8250
Using 3 ship energy refreshes per day (x100 crystals each, x300 total), you could expect to finish in 15.71 days.
Using 6 ship energy refreshes per day (x150 crystals each, x900 total), you could expect to finish in 9.32 days.
Working backwards, in order to spend 8250 energy in 4 days, you would need 2062.5 energy per day.
Subtract out the 24hr x 5 of natural energy, and the 45 of bonus energy, and you still need 1897.5 energy per day.
That's 15.8 ship energy refreshes, granting 120 energy per refresh. I'm not even sure what the crystal cost is past the first 5 or 6...
