I look at it as I'll eventually get the Bond. I can drop a CE that gives my team an extra 35 bond points. That doesn't make much difference. Those mats make a lot of difference once I have enough of them.

Same can be said at the other side.

35 Bond points × 12 = 420 bond points per day

420 × 7 = 2940 Bond points per week

2940 × 4 = 11760 Bond points per months

That could give me Bond CEs and lots of SQ.

And instead I'll make progress on my slow going attempts to finish skills on as many servants as possible. 114 / 280, still have a long way to go.

If farming Charlotte I'll take a 25% boost to an already high Dust drop rate to an extra 5% bond on an average bond node every time, but to each their own. Even on the current node I'm farming on dead weeks, which is the LB7 node that drops Bones, Dust, and Octuplet Crystals I'll be using it.

Why farming at LB 7 when you can get Bones at Fuyuki~

Because I need massive amounts of Dust, Bones and Crystals and it's more efficient to farm that node until I have all the Crystals I need instead of the node that exclusively drops Crystals, then move to the Dust and Bone nodes individually.

But if you farm them individually, you can get them all faster, time-wise 👀

No you can't. Using 200 Crystals and 1000 each of Dust and Bones as an example.

If I immediately needed any one of them I'd farm them individually until I satisfied that immediate need, but I already have a huge stockpile of all of them so it's all long term need.

Of course I can. I already farm thousands of Void Dusts and Evil Bones. Never underestimate the power of efficient and consistent farming.

Mixed nodes are fine if you need multiple mats. Just depends on the drop rates for mats. Are both over half as fast drop wise than the best node? It works. Takes longer than focusing but you get bith eventually.
