Lol $30 for effectively nothing

It's not nothing, but it's not a good deal.

I figure, the same amount buys 4200 in crystals.

Do 3 x 100 a day for 14 days.

On average I recall getting about 7-12 shards per 3 refreshes.

We'll go with 8 shards on avg. X 14 = 112

So it's like the kids experiment. You give kids a donut and tell them if they can wait 10 minutes without eating it, they can have another. If you're willing to spread it out, using the crystals in catina is a way better value.

12 energy node. 165 free cantina a day plus 3 refreshes. That equals just under 43 sims a day. at the recognized 33% drop rate that equals roughly 14 shards a day with 3 refreshes a day or ~24 days for 7*, which is what is needed.

Now to have it available for the mission we have 9ish days which is 37 shards a day. To reach that number we'd need 9.6... 10 cantina refreshes a day..

I am actually doing really well. So far I have done 3 days of 3 refreshes. I'm at 42/80

I went low on avg of 8 because - although it's the 33% it doesn't mean it's steady. I made it 8 to account for bad luck.

I may buy the pack... I don't know. it just doesn't seem that great of a deal for me to jump at.

The progression in LS Geo is going to be different and slower, so I'm not in a huge hurry. I have time.

We'll see. The other gear packs are more worth it.
