    I was wondering if I am one of few that use cheap diamonds to complete stage 3 team affinity. I didn’t start team affinity until after stage 3 was released. Most cost around 100 to 115k stubs to complete only doing exchanges. With the cards you receive, stubs, and packs, I don’t really lose any money. 25k stubs at most but have all three stages complete. Is anyone else as lazy as I am and just throw stubs to complete these in preparation for stage 4?

    I dont get it....you can sell diamonds and buy bronzes,only spending around 3500 to get the ten points of affinity exchanges. You have to put tons of orders in but for roughly 55-68 stubs I can get bronze 72-74....how is diamonds better than that process

    I mean I’m super lazy. It’s 19 exchanges, if I pay an extra 2k each I’m fine with that.

    some people go the cost effective route, some go the time effective route. To each their own, losing 2k isn't that bad considering how much you'll make from TA rewarfs and all the packs

    I do not buy diamonds to exchange, but the free prospect packs and such, I exchange them when they are QS value.

    I was lazy at first and was using the 88s I could pick up for under 5500. But with the market as it is, way cheaper to use silvers. You can actually turn a profit from doing TAs this way. It is time consuming though.

    I dropped 150k on hrd and tn cards last night, all under 6k each, to stock up for part 4. 1 card exchanges are awesome.

    I used a bunch of low tier HR derby cards when they were QS value after flash sales.

    Are you guys talking about just stage 3? Or if I was to do it starting from just 10/70 from stage 1? I never paid attention to TA because I don't enjoy it. But if I could almost break even to get 1 of the Trout vouchers, that would be awesome. But I just don't see it.

    Even if you were to find diamonds that were 5k and were worth 50,000. You would need crazy pack luck to get close to breaking even.

    Unless I'm completely misreading this topic lol.

    3500 for me as well, but 2k to instantly get it done, is worth it if you have the stubs and don't want to put in a bunch of orders.

    Not everyone cares about 1,500 stubs they care more about their time

    I only use them when I get them from packs since selling them is kind of worthless.
