I suppose I have a different method for support. I hate feeling like I'm wasting time, so I like to get it done with as much firepower as I can. It is reliant on resources and effectiveness though. If it's not effective or costs too much for little gain? I won't send it.

I dropped it after two boss fights in E-1, dropped it after a third boss fight in E-6 until the finisher (adding node as well). Otherwise it did guarantee a 100% S Rank between E-2 (with node) and E-5, so I didn't mind dropping resources on it. Had a Nagato and Mutsu given rings right before the event to help alleviate costs a little bit, plus a Hiei and Kirishima that got their own from daily PvP by the time E-6 rolled around.

It's frustrating to me when you invest the time, know the odds, and RNG does all it can to shaft ya anyway. So I suppose I also consider it more of an insurance policy. One that... doesn't always pay for the blue book of your fleet, but still one nonetheless.

Oddly enough I feel the opposite about drops. Duplicates of duplicates... of duplicates? Somehow amusing. Within certain limits anyway.
