I am being honest
My butt is way too lazy to do dream defenders and I simply buy lachelein symbols from event shops during events.
The last time I did dream defenders was during the black mage event cause of the alliance passive.
Well I only do that cause I am currently too weak for the higher stages of dream defenders.

Also, if you hate dream defender then you're gonna love arcana's spirit savior daily.
Spirit savior is where I spend my event coins XD
Same. I think my arcana symbol is around level 5 or 6(maybe 7? I haven't logged in since the retro world thing started) just from symbol selectors.
Actually, I do hate Dream Defender and love Spirit Savior, lol.
Unless you can clear floor 70, then Lachelein is the area with the slowest levelling symbol. So it would make sense to invest symbol selectors into Lach.
SS isn't quite as bad, IMHO, so long as you have a flash jump skill of some kind. I hear people say it is an exercise in frustration for classes with teleport. Though I do hear tell of some people consistently doing 15k for two rounds, I tend to only get 10k for three rounds, unless I have some really good spirit spawns. Still, I can at least consistently get 10 symbolsa day from that one, unlike DD. Assuming I don't get any lag. If you lag at all, the boss will more than likely catch you, and I've even had it where when I lag really bad more than one boss will spawn and chase me around. SS is atrocious if you don't have a good inet connection.
Still, Lach is certainly the place with the slowest symbol leveling, while it takes an average of nearly a year of dailies to level a 8x per day symbol to max, lach averages 1.5yrs assuming you clear the 40th floor every day. Even at the 90th floor, it still takes 2/3rds of a year, but given its highly unlikely that the average person is going to *start* DD and make it to 90th floor on their first day, its more likely that they will spend the first 6 months or so at a much lower floor, and make their way up to the next 10 as they level and get stronger; well past when they first got to Lach.
The worst part though, is if you ever want to play more than one main... that's well over a year of dailies, per character, and maple has over 40 playable classes/characters. It seems that while Maplestory encourages playing multiple characters (a'la legion), it discourages having multiple mains; by time-gating symbol progress behind a year of dailies....
For a tip though, after exhausting 3 entries for DD, go back to Lachelein and talk to top 5 guys standing close to the clocktower. They will call you with a username and will give you a few Dream Coins that will mostly (if not always) add up to be another extra symbol. I clear 50th floor each day and this helps me with an extra symbol everyday so that's a relief.
Ah yes, the pity-symbol coins that I've remembered to get all of three times
Meanwhile, in Spirit Savior Anxiety Anonymous:
"How many points did you get today?"
"1000, I cried afterwards"
"Dang, I made it to 2k today"
"Congrats, man! That's amazing!"
"I...I had to take a break for the rest of the day."
My bf is literally doing the same thing since he can only get 3 symbols a day from Dream Defenders. We feel your pain >.<
Nexon, if you are reading this, for the sake of my sanity and of every other kanna to attempt Spirit Savior, please consider adding a Flash jump feature. Even if it's just for that daily event. Than
