On Apocrean Sigils

So I was doing some math yesterday for how many sigils would be needed to craft all three Obsidian weapons (thank goodness we keep them after the event is over).
Obsidian Shards are 65 sigils, we need 6 for each weapon, so 18 mats in total, or 1170 sigils
Binding Essences are 135 sigils, we need 4 for each weapon, so 12 mats in total, or 1620 sigils
Perplexing Elements are 270 sigils, we need 2 for each weapon, so 6 mats in total, or 1620 sigils
All in all, one would need 4,410 sigils to craft all three weapons, or 1470 sigils to craft each one.
The mission has 4 depths of random levels, with the second set having 3/5 Plateau, third set having 2/5 Plateau, and fourth set having 5/5 Plateau
My main question is how many sigils can one get on average during the event mission, thus how many times does one need to run the mission?

So that would mean 1103 lost souls for all three weapons, with 2 left over for the grasping aura, on T3 Elite

I still don't know how Apocrea can return until they fix the bug that allows people to show the map to the grasping plateau levels. Then again, the company sold another mixmaster on ah featured way after it was reported their "fix" for mixmasters was broken still (Still is bugged/You can shoot through CERTAIN walls and enemies don't try to strafe or shield shots from it).

Apocrean stuff is pretty fair to make. You can get around 150 to 200 tokens per level if you're thorough.
So basically 15 times if you're lucky and thorough. Keep in mind you're getting mad radiants from the arenas that aren't apocrea, and solving puzzles can get you materials for the obsidian items.
Here is a relevant wiki article:

On Tier 3 Elite you get four sigils per Lost Soul freed. I'm not sure how many Lost Souls you can expect per Grasping Plateau, and the drop rate changed at some point I think. But maybe a few hundred sigils per level is doable. Someone with more recent knowledge may correct me.
You also get 18 sigils per puzzle solved. Puzzles occasionally also give materials, which are worth many sigils.
