Yes, since WL is my main, i will invest more zeny on it. But nowadays im looking to do HTF as fast as possible at the low cost possible. that's why i will test daily runs with 0 HP pots used. Now my higher cost on potions, are around 100 hp potions or less on Santa's part, even using anodynes and increase agi, sometimes its necessary to kill em.
Once I end test my perfec dodge runs on part 2 and part 3, can do a conclusion on a fastest and cheapper run
Faster and cheaper is actually doing high dmg when you have to do it, i think most of the wls had given his opinion actually do that quest by themselves everyday and try to do it as fast as they can because after a while it became tedious. Also, part 2 is really fast, i mean you can use perfect dodge gear or whatever but tbh how fast you do it has more to do with how familiar you are with the instance than anything, i can do that part before the costume runs out and you dont have to kill anything just WI and froze all the mob and you are done, even then with according gear you can one shot teddy bears with crimson rock anyway. The thing with perfect dodge gear is not that is not useful btw, is that is more time with not a really good return, i use a lot perfect dodge gear before (i actually did my first ogh run with perfect dodge on some parts because i cant kill much back then) zayaan use it on his video of memory of thanatos and facework instance, but i ended up realizing that is not worth the hassle of swaping gear on HTF if you can take care of monsters easier just freezing them or directly killing them.
Aswell most of them dont use potions because they have drain life wich works as a ygg seed for free, sometimes i do some runs without using a single hp potion, is not a difficult thing if you are aware of what is going on with celine (like when she got power up so you start being extra careful with the SW spam) most people wont spend more than 1m per run even less, i use like 30 potions per run, 1 dex and int food, one bathory food, one berserk and i bring with me 15 royal jelly to get rid of curse and the wavy effect. and depending on how much you take to kill celine you will need 1 or 2 yggs seeds to refill your sp, or maybe just use the tea cups that drops from the intance (they actually works really well for sp) that ammount of supplies are not really going to bankrupt you, so dont worry about adding too much spending on the instance if you decide go full dmg there.
Ii suggest also you go for celine brooch and headgear and go full dmg on first part before she cast max pain, then swap to a DR (wich you have) and keep the rest of gear and finish the kill. You have magician glove, drop pororoca and get temporal int and nightmare pyramid combo on a crimson weapon (wich i think you also have), your dmg will increase a lot because:
a)pororoca combo has really bad matk
you will free proc chance gear and matk slots like shoes and staff
btw, even if you dont have elvira on your celine brooch you will do more dmg than what you do now. (only on Celine part)
