Halloween 2018 Revival - Compact Farming Guide

• Always farm Demon Lord if possible, Demonic tends to have similar but worse drop rates.
• Appearance Rate up is essential - it improves both the currency drops and the monster material drops.
• Appearance Rate up cannot go higher than 100%!
• With Appeance Rate up, some Free Quests have nice monster drop rates.
• The Pyramid node has incredible currency drops and the most efficient path to clear the Event Shop is to...only farm Pyramid until two of the Event Currencies are done.
• But, Masters can mix and match nodes to farm the monster materials they want. 
• For example: one can farm Graveyard (focusing on bags of copper), then Lava Tube and finally the Castle Gates to also get rare materials while clearing the shop.
• See the tables below for summaries! Or visit the Free Quest page for specifics. 
• Challenge Quests also drop (one time only) extra bags of currency/monster material.

Should you buy the Event CEs from the shop?

• For full efficiency, New Masters are not recommended to buy any of the Event CEs from the shop. 
• Not only are they fairly expensive, but Masters can gain the full 100% Spawn Bonus from a friend support.
• Returning Masters are advised to MLB their Hero Elly's Adventure though (should only require 1 purchase if you did not get a drop last year).

• Please be aware that these monster drop rates are based on a relatively small amount of drop data available for the rerun and actual drop rates may vary. 
• For specifics and sources, see the Halloween 2018 Free Quests page. 

Question: Should the final copy of Hero Elly's Adventure (5* Event CE from the Shop) be farmed? Is it good/worth it?

Answer: The Craft Essence is decent for beginners, but nothing spectacular. Straight NP damage up is generally more effective while Joint Recital, Victor of the Moon, etc. are more useful in extended fights. Ideally, only consider buying copies of this Event CE if Masters have acquired a random drop. 

For farming, relying on a borrowed MLB variant from a friend is much more efficient AP/time-wise

Of course, if you really like Elisabeth, then this question has an obvious answer.
