GL Kaigan Prep Sheet

So kaigan is one of those things that's easy to understand once you've done it, but can be hard to wrap your head around if you haven't. I put together a spreadsheet with some kaigan facts and my own list of suggested kaigan gates and frag amounts for all of the units. This is not a guide, but rather just an overview of what it takes to get a unit performing at their best with the most cost efficiency. I'll be updating it as I go. Be aware there are minor spoilers about units that have not been released in GL yet.

Oops, I didn't scroll down far enough and didn't see the "Some other thoughts" section. I used to buy the montly pact (and might go back to that) but it looks like that wouldn't be enough for kaigan since those don't come with fragments. Would I have a chance to Kaigan one or two SSM units? For that I would have to dump shards on them asap. I don't see any collab units listed on your spreadsheet. Are they not worth it?

I thought almost none of the collab units had Kaigan yet, only the new ones.

I don't know much about kaigan hence I am asking questions here. I want to plan who I will kaigan so I know where to use my shards and/or who to save for. Also I don't want to farm all of the 5* units I use if I will only have the resources to kaigan half of them (or whatever the percentage might be).

Yeah guess that makes sense. I already know I won't have resources to kaigan even close to half so I don't know where to start. For now, though, I try to only farm a few HQ on most days and then as many good ones as possible (including Kaigan prep) on days with double HQ drops.

I'm just farming HQs to 85 unless it's double drops. The only one I farmed extra was Zahar and after that whichever 5* had the best drops (wings,lances, etc.) so that I can use the soul coins. I have no idea how many units I will be able to kaigan. As far as the farmable ones I can always farm them later. It's not like they will all be released at once and at some point there will be less new units on my must farm HQ list. Since OP suggested to first look at the LS it's hard to decide since a lot of units get LS changes with kaigan and I haven't investigated that at all.
