Tips on Saving Up Carats

Only Use Carats for Scouting

Avoid Excessive Scouting

The best way to use Carats is by using them on Scouting alone. It is not recommended to use Carats to replenish your Daily Races, as they will be available again the following day.

Avoid Excessive Scouting

If it is your intention to save up for more Carats, it's best to limit how much you can Scout. It's better to pull for more Support Cards since they are essential in making your Trainees stronger,

The best way to use your Carats is by scouting Support Cards. It is advisable to have plenty of Carats prepared for this, such as 15,000 Carats or more. Having a sufficient amount of Carats can let you draw duplicate Support Cards.

Depending on whose Support Cards you've pulled for, their duplicates are essential to maximize their Uncap Grade. It is recommended to pull for a 10x Scout as this will guarantee an SR drop.

Scout for Trainees

Just like scouting for Support Cards, it is also recommended to pull for a 10x Scout as this will guarantee an SR drop.

Replenishing TP, RP, and Daily Tickets can be done in expense of Carats. However, since they are recovered over a certain amount of time, it is recommended to wait for the cooldown period to finish rather than spending Carats over them.

Resuming Career Mode Races

Resuming Career Mode Races

Failing a racing goal while training can opt you to use an Alarm Clock for another try. However, if you're out of Alarm Clocks, you can spend 10 Carats instead. However, it's recommended to spend your 10 Carats on restoring TP so you can participate in more Career Mode Races.
