PSA: Don't Waste your NRG for Sasuke's Katana/Ras Algethi (until they give us Multi)

Equipment Training Quest (Advanced) is the only farm with Sasuke's Katana or Ras Algethi recipes.

The drop rate is 1.05% at 12 NRG per run. That's roughly 1 recipe per 1200 NRG.

• To farm 63 recipes, you'd need to spend approximately 75,600 NRG.
• We recover 1 NRG every 3 minutes, so we can passively gain 480 NRG per day. The highest cap on NRG pot refreshes is 40 per day for 4,800 NRG. You also get 3 video refreshes for 90 more NRG. Per day, before spending Visiore, a player with 40 refreshes can spend 5,370 NRG daily.
• It would take just over 14 days to spend 75,600 NRG at 5,370 NRG daily. This event lasts 7 days.It's impossible to farm up a +5 from scratch (the best you'll do is a +4 ^(but don't do that))
• For the Brutal Multi, it's a 6 NRG farm per run with 40% drop rate for TWO recipes. That's 160x more efficient than the sole option that they've left us.

Spending 280 L Pots just to farm one weapon is ludicrous when we've been able to invest roughly 2,500 NRG via multi hosting, or free if joining.

I don't want to recommend this because I think this is a terrible value, but it's the best and only value we have: ^(if you NEED to have it, buy the +5 in the shop with Visiore (it's better than wasting all your pots for a +4))

​

I've submitted a ticket to Gumi about this oversight. I've also tweeted at them. Tell your guildmates to save their NRG pots. Chances are, you probably know a few people complaining that the quest seems broken.
