The 720 UC tier delivers optimal value—100% UC return at Level 100 while unlocking complete Rebel Rogue Fox Set and Primordial Bough MK12. Requires 58-75 daily RP points across 60 days via 40-80 daily missions and 140-350 weekly challenges.

Tier Recommendations by Player Type
Casual Players (2-3 hours weekly)
Generate 20-35 RP daily—won't reach Level 100. Recommended: 360 UC Elite Pass or skip entirely
Regular Players (1-2 hours daily)
Generate 60-90 RP daily—completes Level 100 in 39-75 days. Recommended: 720 UC Elite Pass (zero net cost, full rewards)
Hardcore Grinders (3+ hours daily)
Generate 90-120 RP daily—completes in 29-50 days. Recommended: 720 UC Elite Pass (Elite Plus optional for 18-24 days early access)
Late-Season Buyers (after Feb 1)
Need 97-150 RP daily with 3 weeks remaining. Recommended: 1920 UC Elite Plus (25-level boost essential for completion)
Common Misconceptions
Myth: Elite Plus always offers better value. Reality: For players with 1+ hours daily starting at season launch, 720 UC Elite delivers superior value (0 UC vs 1200 UC net cost).
Myth: UC rebates return immediately. Reality: 720 UC distributes across Levels 1/40/50/100. Majority arrives at Level 100—incomplete passes forfeit unclaimed rebates.
Myth: Elite Plus grants instant Level 50. Reality: Grants instant Level 25 only. Still need 2175-2625 RP to reach Level 50.
Truth: Historical data shows 60% of Elite buyers reach Level 100, 40% fail. Elite Plus shows 75-80% completion due to 25-level buffer.
Strategic Purchase Timing
Season Start (Jan 11-18): Optimal for all tiers. Pre-order bonuses until Jan 7. Maximum completion time.
Mid-Season (Jan 19-Feb 15): Acceptable for Elite Plus, risky for standard Elite. Daily requirements rise to 75-95 points.
Late Season (Feb 16-Mar 10): Elite Plus mandatory. Requires 100-150+ daily points—only 25-level boost provides realistic completion.
Upgrade Path: Can upgrade 720 UC Elite to Elite Plus mid-season by paying 1200 UC difference. Only worthwhile before Level 25 or when facing completion uncertainty.
Expert Verdict
Overall Winner: 720 UC Elite Pass—zero net cost, full rewards including Rebel Rogue Fox Set. Unmatched value for moderate-to-high completion probability players.
Budget Players: 720 UC Elite exclusively. Avoid 360 UC (no rebates) and 1920 UC (1200 UC net cost).
Time-Limited Players: 1920 UC Elite Plus. The 1200 UC functions as completion insurance, preventing total loss if you can't reach Level 100.
Final Matrix:
Casual (2-3 hrs/week): Skip or 360 UC Elite
Regular (1-2 hrs/day): 720 UC Elite
Hardcore (3+ hrs/day): 720 UC Elite (Elite Plus for early access)
Late Buyers (after Feb 1): 1920 UC Elite Plus or skip
