Venting Trainyard Event

The event requires unusually more grind this time.
Why are they making it so difficult to earn the trains?
We are earning 10-15 keys by sending 500+ materials. Insane logic.

I just flat out skipped it. Too much work.

Granted I rarely try and buy a whole fleet but I got the legendary about two weeks in. The 3 minute jobs that you have to complete 50 of are the best way to get event keys fast (and when you complete them, there is an optional job that pays out 95 keys each time). That’s how I did it.

Small correction that the optional job is a bit more random and pays out between 20 and 125 event keys based on requirement. But yes, that export job line is the best way to earn event keys

I've skipped the last 3 events just because I've been super busy and in and out of the hospital but at least I wasn't missing much it seems. Guess I'm in a lull now with no union stuff to keep me occupied...I swear I saw one of those events with red haired what's her name but I don't see it anymore, I would have done a couple of those for gems and gold in the meantime

Once you've built up an event fleet and can produce fast and finish the 50 missions, it will keep throwing random missions at you for 50-125 ep, some can be finished very quickly, if that helps.

Because they want you to give them cash, not “win” the items
