I would recommend tracking your mats, you may be surprised. I’ve only been playing for a few months and I average a mat a day, and that’s not even including purchased mats. There are things you can do to increase your chances, I’ll list them below.
To maximize your opportunities for mats:
- Get to loot tier IX for Titans
- Complete all rare quests
- Complete all challenge events (intermediate and advanced)
- Watch Mystic Vision everyday
- Participate in every war, and stick with your alliance at least until the chest is full
- Fill Raid & Monster chest daily
- Skip chests to fill more a day (and have more opportunities at elementals and mats)
- Fill all elemental chests
- Use all Atlantis coins to fill Atlantis chest
- If you spend, buy all special offers (especially good deals)
If you do stick with E&P, I wish you luck on your endeavors. It definitely takes a lot of grinding and patience
