I'm actually going to be farming some for the next couple of days while waiting for Valentines, since Barghest could use some.

Bones are easy. You should be able to get that in as low as a week factoring in the ones you already have if you use the drop CEs. Definitely before the lottery.

No Drop rate up CE, thank you. It's useless, just like Black Widow is to the Avengers.

Not for bones. We have 4 of them, so 20% bonus, bones have a very high drop rate to begin with, and the node has terrible bond so you aren't missing out much on bond. All other ones are currently useless IMO until Dust gets MLB next AQ. Even without the drop CEs you'll only need a couple extra days.

Nah, still useless. Drop up CE only gives you "higher chance" to get items for every quest. Meanwhile, Bond up CE "guaranteed" me to get Bond up bonus for every quest. It's a simple math.

Bones drop on low Bond fights anyway, you don't really lose that much. If you use the highest drop nodes, better FP up than Bond. I got 4 Bone CEs and +75 FP.

A bit shame people rarely use the +50 flat Bond points CE at support setup, but I understand that those CEs rarely useful anyway. So yeah, just do "same as always" for me.

I always use it. My bones setup is 4 Bone CEs and +50 bond CE. The only time I don't use it is 90+/++.
