In my opinion buying skulls is not terrible. Consider that: - skulls have a very very low drop rate (don't have the figures but according to my experience probably less than 5%) - you obtain only one colour skull once it drops (so for a given color drop rate falls to 1%) - 6+ units often requires 2-3 skulls to superevolve

Putting altogether, you will easily reach a point in which you need to farm only raids for an entire week to obtain the skulls you need and chances are you are not getting one at all (still missing a blu skulls since January and hard-farming raids)

/u/MKTPR I think my answer is relevant for you as well.

I my experience the drop rate is not that bad. It is closer to 20% I would say. Maybe 10%, but 5% is too low for sure). Yes, there is still a lot of farming to be done, but this is a grindy game after all. If they were available, would you spend RP for a random farmable character whose stage you can't beat or would you rather get a chance at an OP LRR that will make some other content super easy that you wouldn't be able to get otherwise? Even if the LRR you get is not OP, it is still most likely new.

Like I said in my answer, if you seem to get enough RP per month to buy all the LRR tickets, then sure go ahead, but personally as a F2P player I am not getting enough points by far.
