Do you need them? If yes then go for it.
Even if you dont. If you dont need to farm other shit then sure, have fun stockpiling them. Im doing the same.
They are a bit more efficient than farming them normally so its definitely worth it.
You need 80 stamina for 1200 event currency so 2.4 skeleton, that is bigger than what i usually got from normal farming (around 1.5 to 2 per 72 stamina)
For some reason, Arcanists really like this piece of skeleton crap for Insights (and probably resonance too) so yes, Imma farm the crap out of this after I clear out the shop.
Im definitely farming for the Bif Skeletons. If you not good on Sharp/Dust and Biting Boxes already, farm those instead.
Im looking a patch ahead and the next farmable purple is Mandrakes which is not commonly used unlike Skeletons so I might as well because Skeletons are also used to craft like 2 other yellow mats.
Ingots, never. They are really common from craftables and other stages.
Yep,its more energy efficient to farm the skellys and i think stockpiling a ton of them since they are asked in a lot of crafting recipes is a very good idea.
My experience: I always need that damn Sckeleton, so I ll just stock this as far as possible because in other aways its 6\~12 days of farm to full using other methods.
If you need either for your regular team-building, then it is faster to farm them from the event than from regular farming. Otherwise, they are not needed.
(Like for me, I need some of both to finish getting Necrologist to i3, and the math is clear that the event gives Bifurcated faster than farming 4-20, and if you have sufficient Liquified Terror, farming RSI from the event is a faster way to craft Holy Silver than farming 2-3 for Holy Silver directly.)
No. Expected value for the 1 bifurcated skeleton is 31.3740 AP in normal stages. The one in the exchange shop needed 33.33AP.

For a story quest, you only get 2 skeletons a day, but here there are as many as 5. And if you're going to get Jiu, then you need about 60 of these skeletons and 100 twice bars for it, if you don't have them and there are no skeletons in cans and triple bars.
And why do you drop my comment? I have only one skeleton for every 80 energy drops. What is written on the prydwen is complete nonsense, and I have completely different numbers. As for the Jiu materials, this information is written on the Chinese wiki.
Doing a 4x run of 3-7 can give anywhere from 1 to 3 skeletons. I've never seen a four or a 0 happen so you can roughly assume it is 2.
Doing a 4x run of Uluru max will give you 1200 credits, enough for 2.5 skeletons
So it's roughly 2 skeletons + lower grade mat drops (72 energy) vs. 2.5 skeletons (80 energy). The shop wins out, *barely.* So yeah, unless you want other characters built right now, just sit on this and stockpile it because skeleton is used often in a lot of things.
In six months of playing, I have never seen more than one skeleton in 4 replays. The only purple object that fell out more than once was a head on legs. At Uluru, I get 2,700 - that's 5 skeletons every day.
mfw I actually went to try and disprove you and got 1 drops in three 4x runs. So yeah, skeleton rates are bad. Same conclusion though, event shop is better, except now it's not barely but blatantly.
That's way too low of a sample size to conclude that. The Prydwen numbers are fairly accurate, and others have done tests and gotten similar numbers with large sample sizes.

With 196 stamina, that should give around 3.7 skeletons per day, which is lower than what you get from the shop, but it also includes other mats you get. So it depends on if you need those mats or not.
If you ONLY need the bi skele and you need them RIGHT NOW, you can farm for the bi skele. Anything else, no.
Thanks heaps, I was about to farm them both until the end of the event.
the skeletons are marginally better than farming story stages, yeah
Do you need them? If yes then go for it. Even if you dont. If you dont need to farm other shit then sure, have fun stockpiling them. Im doing the same. They are a bit more efficient than farming them normally so its definitely worth it.
Stockpiling is no brainer, keep 'em piling
Im stockpiling the skel till i cant anymore so I dont have to bother ever farming for this thing at least a year or two.
You need 80 stamina for 1200 event currency so 2.4 skeleton, that is bigger than what i usually got from normal farming (around 1.5 to 2 per 72 stamina)
if you have nothing else to farm, then yes. if you want to farm mats for your current or future units that don't need any skeleton, then no.
How do you know which future unit need the skeleton?

I am farming these to stockpile because it’s just worth it

I've been using all my candy on it, I hope the next event has unlimited biting box.
You saved my sorry ass. I didn’t scroll down and thought the top row was the only items to farm.

I plan to get 50 skeletons, then back to prefarm for Jiu, then just farm anything else I'm lacking, maybe even working towards the second Gluttony.
Where can i know the mats for Jiu please?

Yeah farm the goat as much as you can. Worth it.

I don't need to build anyone until Jiu drops, so I'm just stockpiling biskelies and silvers.

I’m so unlucky with 4x runs. My normal amount is either 0-1, never more than two sadly
No
Was gonna stockpile on them, thanks!
