^ Exactly! If the objective is only to pass E5 over the 20 or so days of the event, you don't need nearly so much. In the Christmas event, I got Shioi by Christmas morning 4AM (Japanese time), then spent the remaining days of the event farming the maps. To pull this off I needed ALL the resources I would normally gather over several days ready for me to use on the very first day. I have similar plans for the Midway event. Teitokus should start thinking over what their OBJECTIVES are for the event and plan accordingly. How long do you intend to play? Do you want to pass all maps? Do you want to farm any maps? Do you want to farm maps AFTER finishing the event? Do you have any special objectives besides completing the event? (Last time a lot of teitokus used Fog ships to clear regular maps and farm exp in PvP; a lot of lazy teitokus also used the event-only sub appearance in 1-3 to cheaply complete the sub hunting quests). The answers to these questions affect what you should do to prepare for the event.
