They all either cost in excess of 20k crowns on the AH or at least 50 Krogmo Coins for the recipes. Which is kinda irking my friend who's investing in the Triglav Line of swords.
So what would you guys recommend to speed up getting these swords? Buy them? Or save up from Lockdown?
And how does one maximize Krogmo Coin Earning efficiency in Lockdown?
You don't do a Triglav line in the first place because all Troika lines are sub-par. By that, I mean that even on resistant targets, Sealed Swords line have a better dps (maths have been done on that, you should be able to find that somewhere on the arsenal forum). And since the Troika line charge is bad (also, maths prove that), there is no reason to get it at all, unless you really want a big showy sword.
As for how to get it, the cheapest way is generally to take the 2* or 3* version from AH (2* should be around 2K, 3* around 15K), or do it yourself if it's too high (that would not be surprising, since Troika is bad, there are no ragecrafters flooding the AH with it).
As for after, craft it yourself. This means, unfortunately, that you are going to spend a lot of time in Lockdown (Blast Network can do too). There is no secret way to go faster. Do every match to the end (you'll earn 1 Coin even if you loose).
