With right equipment, right shipgirls, levels, buckets, effective expeditions and luck, you can clear most event with zero resources and buckets, exception for IBS. But as most people have pointed out, farming can be far more dreadful than clearing. Most of the times, you only need to kill the boss to clear it. When it comes to farming, most of the times you need to S rank it and that can be freaking painful and hard.

I cleared summer event on hard, it took me two and half day. With lack of information, i had to try out several random setup for example, E4-E7. E7 being most expensive map for scouting, (Gather enemy composition on every node and figure out a valid composition for clearing) i used around 800 buckets and 120k resources to clear whole event. E7 alone took 80k resources and 500 buckets. I was not resources or bucket efficient as i tried to beat several players that i know.(Unhealthy way to play the game) I still had to farm the new drops, I used more than 250k resources and 1500 buckets, that was totally insane.

Let me remind you guys, there is plenty of way to save resources and buckets. Waiting for branching is a obvious one. However, you can always farm on easier difficulty first and then proceed to do hard when you are done farming. In that way, you could easily save tons of resources and buckets. Don't be like me, farming on E3-E4-E6 on hard was just pure BS. You are kind of forced to use support on boss to have a decent chance to S rank, that alone is BS and annoying.
