In terms of overall stat increases for a low tier gold spender, the best way to spend 650 gold for max stat gain is:

1.) boss events (provided you can win the 40 award)
2.) Crates
3.) boss events (if you can't win the 40 award)
4a) auction event (this will normally get you in the lower tier rewards.)
4b) invasion events (if you are lucky enough in the first half of the event). I do not have enough information to see the overal benefits.
5.) LE gold items
6.) scratchers.
7.) collect ten events.

The issue is, that most scratch items have low level farmable or cash equivalents. You have to hold on for the 4/5/6 items to be worth it, scratches are generally good for a small boost but no more. Crates are the standard by which all stat gains should be measured.

Importantly, if you have more gold to spend, over a longer period, the order changes, as there should be more emphasis on big stat items, rather than mid level items (i would consider mid =~125/125 items)

I would think that Option 4b is better than 4a, isn't it?

If you are above Lv101 with a stat like that, spending gold won't get you too far in a Boss Event. My suggestion would be Option 2, 4b, 4a, and maybe use the health pack for one or two more Boss....

So you think I should use the other options till my stats get higher then I might have a. Chance at the boss events?

Lv101 & above is in Boss Tier5, which is ridiculously hard. In order to go onto the next Boss, you would need more gold each time and most likely you will only get a Common. By spending your gold on 3xCrates (175 gold), I believe you will have a better chance of boosting your stat.

But honestly, even by spending a lot won't help you much at this point. I would suggest you to play it free and earn some free prizes from the Events. Trust me, it's more fun and relaxing when you don't spend a dime....

Lol, please don't take this the wrong way. I am Lv101 with 50+/50+ stat and I think I got ****ty stat.

I just want to share my experience as a free player at the beginning, spent $100, and now going back to spending none....

+1

@ <30k stats a lot of improvement can be gained from just non-gold items, there is no need to waste any money. But having said that, OP, you are probably gonna be crushed at high levels. These are my stats and I will suffer the same beating as any other player who didn't spend money, difference is just WHO delivers the beating. So if you're thinking of spending just a little bit, just save the money it's not worth it!

Take it from me, a guy who has spent over $50 of irl money on scratchers.
Go crates.
Crates all the way.
Scratchers are useless. You have better odds of hitting the power-ball than you do hitting 10m cash.

(thats like 25-28 scratchers but I know I've went through atleast 30)
