The % behind shows the waste in tokens vs the previous tier for the same token rewards. Additionally you need to add the upgraded lootbox items. I suppose you can "waste" about 15%+10%-20% from the upgraded lootbox for all tiers. Exceptions is between 4th and 5th tier as it will increase by 51%+10%-20% from the upgraded lootbox.

Yup. And right now the waste in tickets is about 46,000 in the scenario we've been discussing (~38%). I calculated this based on 4 days to complete T4 versus 2 days to complete T3. Based on the posters description that it takes twice as long to complete T4 as T3.

What is difficult to "weight" in all of these calculations is the probability that someone is getting stun guns or cuffs in their T4 loot box. You can't really assign a value to replacing those missed pieces via guild currency because you have no way to knowing if you would have received them as awards (guild wide).
