    Default What is the best way to grind nox fodder?

    10*>10* until +20 then into Nox?

    10*>10* until +10 then into Nox to save photon sphere?

    Only +5 10* into Nox cube anything less?




    7-9* into Nox because they are less expensive?

    im still crunching the numbers but it looks like leading contenders for pure meseta efficiency are +35'd 1-3* and 4-6* weapons

    1-3* are worth about 227 exp and take about 42k meseta to +35 if you are only jamming duplicate weapons into each other, and only using weapons that drop for you

    but if you still wanna stick to playing Extra Hard, 6* weapons seem to drop a lot more often in the Level Up Quests than 3* weapons; they are worth 330 exp at +35 but are 96k to grind up

    7-9* weapons seem too hard to get duplicate NT drops to take advantage of the "Same Weapon" material bonus, and wind up being a lot less meseta efficient than the lower grade stuff.

    10* weapons are actually slightly more meseta efficient than 7-9*, and since major EQs rain dio weapons on you, you can easily take advantage of the "same weapon" bonus.


    granted I think I still needed to calculate how much a total cost would add up to be with the lower grade stuff so I'll look into that too.

    You know what, I got so hung up on utilizing material bonuses to +35 the fodder before using it on a 12 or even straight into a 13* that I forgot to consider the untekked +5 10* option so

    For 12*, I just throw whatever 7* to 9* I pick up in, as well as Empers and same weapon Noxes when Mother's bonus is in effect. Takes a while when Emper is off season though.

    The point of using grinded 10* is to reduce Lambda usage, and fodders are fast to make because cubes come by so quickly and aren't bound to seasonals.

    Have to admit +5 unteks aren't half bad though.

    I am curious of an easy and reliable(read: being able to buy from shop at stable prices) to grind my toys too. I am willing to spend up to 30 lambdas per weapon if necessary as long as I can save some meseta in the process.

    Assuming this is going into a 12* weapon.

    Based off of your numbers it is cheaper to use +35 1-3* only when your 7-9* are less than +5 and your 10* are less than +4.

    +4 10*=110exp x 2=220exp=40,860 meseta

    +5 7-9*=90exp x 2=180exp=32,000 meseta


    Its cheaper to use +35 6* only when your 7-9* are less than +2 and your 10* are less than +2.

    +2 10*=80exp x 4=320exp=79,000 meseta

    +2 7-9*=60exp x 5=300exp=88,000 meseta


    This just makes things even more confusing.
