Decided to do some Illyros Devotee farming and followed a guide to do 4-9 normal, wow do you get a lot of 2* fodder and gear that way. It's fast too, like 12 battles in <5 minutes.
The grind for 500 equipment will be real for Axe God, that'll take a lot longer than I expected.
I did get all the catalysts from the Side Story so I started farming WD2-9 again and after about 300 stam last night I got 0 catalysts, frustrating. I need 1 more Alarm Loop for Angelica and 3 more Dreamtime Circuits and 1 more ID for Luna. It's not a lot to ask for and it seems so crazy that for such small boosts to a characters stats they make the materials so unbelievably hard to get.
