Calculations are approximate.
So:
>Spending a thousand starlight every week by selecting every Grace effect ++ to hopefully reach Floor 15. and get around 900+ projection. If you win. A thousand.
>You only gain starlight by doing MD runs. Only MD hard runs w. no grace selected beforehand yield enough starlight to recoup costs without excessively wasting Enkephalin modules.
>At least 140-160 Starlight earned per MD Hard run. No Grace Buffs.
>You would need to, preemptively, do at least 6 MD Hard runs, no grace, per week to recoup costs and be able to afford next week's 3 to 4 hours long 15 Floor MD run. Assuming you are not using banner units that give extra starlight.
>You need to do 7 MDs per week. One of MD HARD PSE , which is 3-4 hours long.
>You need to do another 6 MDs per week of 40mins-1hr+ to get over 1k Starlight for next week's run.
>Between 9 to 10 hours of MD for at least 10 weeks straight.
>-33 or -35 Enkephalin modules per week.
>Need to do this for at least 10 weeks to reach Max MD Pass level as soon as possible and no longer care about the rewards.
>You can cut it down to 8 weeks to get to level 80 and call it quits.
>-264 Enkephalin Modules at minimum. -330 Enkephalin modules at maximum. Without taking into account any other expense from Luxcavation. Or doing more MDs to farm for Shards.
>From 10 weeks, substract around 30-40 MD HARD PSE Hours and over 40-60 hours. From your schedule. Around 70-120 hours of MD that you have to do unless you device a gigacheese strat to cut down time by a couple more hours.
