Introduction

Welcome to the Wrestling Ring! The Christmas 2020 Event is a farming + lottery event with several special 2 vs 2 story quests; Main Quests are time-gated per usual.
The Lottery is unlimited! This event presents a good chance to stock up desirable Skill Gems and AP Fruit/QP/FP/Mana Prisms. Notably, all of Quetzalcoatl (Samba/Santa)'s ascension and copies can be obtained by opening the first 5 Lottery Boxes.
This event in JP infamously does not get a rerun, meaning if NA follows suit (which is likely), this will be the only time to get a copy of the Welfare, Quetzalcoatl (Samba/Santa)!
Use the Lottery by collecting from Event Quests.
There are also three Event Shop currencies () to farm for this event.
The Main Quests follow the below release schedule:

#	Quest	Notes	Event Drops
23	D4-1	A 2v2, except the opponent decided to bring more friends. Two waves, the first consisting of 6 Assassin mobs (9-12k HP), the second being a boss wave with three Servants, an Assassin (50k, 50k HP), Assassin (52k, 53k HP), and Rider (55k, 55k HP).

Will I need to use Apples?

For just Max Ascending / NP5 Quetzalcoatl (Samba/Santa), No. For a full shop + Event Lottery grand prize clear, Yes.

Natural Regen AP will be approximately 3690 AP throughout the event.
A first time clear of all Main and Free Quests will cost 460 AP + 40 (obtained from the Lottery), although this can be reduced to 13 instead if skipping the optional EX Matches (#1-7) with non-limited Ascension Material rewards, although #8 has a limited costume.
Getting all copies of Quetzalcoatl (Samba/Santa) and their Ascension Materials requires: ~x3,000 (or fewer, if resetting as soon as Grand Prizes are received, although this is not recommended as Skill Gems and other valuables will be missed). Clearing the first 5 boxes is sufficient to get all 5 copies of Quetzalcoatl and all her Ascension items. On average, if also purchasing Event Shop CEs, this will require 2410 AP.
Assumptions:
- +4 drop bonus for (from purchasing all Event Shop CEs ASAP). The amount can be lowered with a higher bonus + Friend Supports.
For clearing the Event Shop (no monuments) for first timers, approximately 5210 AP will be required to clear all three shops. Depending on drop luck, a few runs of 7th training may be necessary afterwards to gain enough to do all EX Matches.
Assumptions:
- No Gacha CEs.
- Friend Supports that have a non-MLB version of the three Gacha CEs (+1 drop bonus for each currency).
- Purchasing Event Shop CE x4 ASAP and equipping them.
- Equipping bronze currency bonus CE as soon as available for all nodes that drop .
For a full Event Shop clear including monuments, this total reaches 7290 AP to clear all three shops. In this case, the Lottery will be well cleared before the Event Shop is cleared.
Assumptions: (Same as above).
The amount of AP required can be reduced with more copies of Event CEs. Unfortunately the AP required to clear shops will be high without Gacha CEs, as they are the only source of currency drop bonus for this event.
