Yeah, if you have 300 diamonds you can use them instead of each blueprint. Sounds expensive, but if you craft all the time you usually get at least 1200 diamonds a month from that. That's about 1 blueprint a week, same as doing the tournament in a 10 chest fs.

Hum! I craft a lot and have never got any diamonds in MA. I have been playing the game since April 2019...Yeah, if you have 300 diamonds you can use them instead of each blueprint.

I share your experience, in many ways. The people who are lucky assume that everyone is just as lucky. But I think averaging 1200 diamonds per month just from crafting would be fantastic luck, and that isn't mine, lol, even though I craft several times a day.People keep saying that, but it's definitely not been my experience. I get things like winter lampions, summer lampions, father glitter trees, blue frozen flames, etc. I believe I've gotten diamonds a total of maaaaaybe three times in the year I've been playing. And before anyone asks, I rarely go a cycle without crafting at least one thing, and sometimes I use boosters to craft two or three. I obviously just have junk shop luck. lol
Yep, I believe you are lucky, AJ. I'm going to stand next to you for a while and maybe it will rub off, lol.I'm surprised you don't get diamonds. I craft and in the last 3 months my diamond count is up 7,000. Maybe I craft A BIG LOT!? versus a lot? As I think of it I probably craft 6-8 items a day. Or maybe I'm just very, very lucky? [Runs to door to get lottery ticket!]
That's one thing, The other is you would be welcome in Starship Valiant-, my fs on Khelonaar. Let me know if you would like an invite. We'd love to have you. Just mail ajqtrz in the game.

If you're willing to pay 50 diamonds, you can reset the MA once so it turns over on a cycle that works for your schedule. This way, you can see all 4 cycles every day - you don't have to miss any while you sleep.I craft all but one 5 hour window (got to sleep some time)
Or, don't bother to pay 50 diamonds. Just disconnect the road to your MA for a couple hours. For example, if your MA is about to finish in five minutes and you really wish it would finish 2 hours later, so that you could adjust the schedule as Kekune mentions, then just disconnect the road to the MA for a couple hours. When you reconnect it, you'll be exactly at the place you left off, with five minutes to go.If you're willing to pay 50 diamonds, you can reset the MA once so it turns over on a cycle that works for your schedule. This way, you can see all 4 cycles every day - you don't have to miss any while you sleep.
For example, mine resets about 9:15 every night. I see that one before bed, and craft whatever I want. It resets again at 3:15 in the morning, and as long as I see that one before the NEXT reset at 9:15am, I don't miss any opportunities.

6-8 times per day every day really is a lot. I'd say I do 4-6 per day. That said, I average hitting the wheel for the 500 diamonds maybe once every 5-6 weeks, so in three months, about 1000 diamonds. 7000 is way luckier, even if you account for the 2 extra crafts per day.
I don't craft enough to get a mystery chest every other day. I do 5-6 crafts per day, more of them in the 3vv range (time instants) than the 7vv range (pet food). I rarely take the big ticket items ... I don't have enough spell frags to do those, usually. Maybe I'll turn it over twice a week. So if I get the diamonds 1 in every 10 chances, that's about once every 5 weeks. Lately I've been hitting it about once a month, I think, but then, I do get the 9vv buildings like the UUU whenever I see them. So maybe I'm just not remembering clearly enough.Don't forget the FA's where I may turn over the thing 10-20 times. So there's that too. To tell the truth I only know my total diamonds went up that much. I do the spire to the top and am in a silver fs. Your suggestion about not using diamonds helped and I suspect I probably got a bunch from the Spire (@ 200 per week that would be .....2600 in 13 weeks). Three months at 1200 is 3600 and the rest is probably split around the three sources). Or, I'm just very lucky.
If you think about it, if the diamonds are at 20% chance every 200 vision vapor that's about 1 time out of 10. If you get a mystery chest once every other day in 20 days you should get at least 1 hit, 500 diamond. In 90 days that's 4.5 times for 2250 diamonds. I just looked over my current offering and the total VV is 39. I will craft 3 of the items and I usually do 2...the time instants and the supply instants, as those I need. I also grab the RR (spending all those diamonds, ) so, in this round my VV will go up about 36. If I just do the supply and time instants I probably get 10 from them and then and extra 10 every other chest from something else. That's 30 plus 20 or 50 vv per day. So about every other day I get a mystical object. All of which makes me wonder when I started seeing my diamonds go up. I may have been 4-6 months ago, instead of 3. So maybe the weekly total is a bit less...1000 per month? Still, enough to buy a lot of RR spells.
I'll do some poking round to see if I can figure out just how long it took for me to go up that much.

I actually caught one of the dwarves toasting Marshmallows over one of those orange thingies... I guess it's better than him toasting an OrcI craft all but one 5 hour window (got to sleep some time) and there are a number of times diamonds aren't even an option placed in my little chest. Just a bunch of those orange flame things.
