This is the first event that i'll be entering do im a bit nervous. No worries!

Summer 2017 was my first event as well and I managed to clear it on Easy, so I know exactly where you're coming from.

Fortunately for Easy (and, likely, Casual) mode, the levels of your ships and whether or not they have maxes stats are far more important than your gear...but gear will be important in later stages (World 3 and beyond) and will make your life easier during the event.

This said, I would say focus on getting your ships to K2 (or about that level if they don't have a K2) and then focus on gathering resources and don't spend so much time and resources on gear. The equipment and improvements will come in time.
