Components build in parallel, so the wall-clock minimum is the slowest component plus final assembly — rushing with platinum skips the wait entirely. Figures are Digital Extremes’ own recipe data.
Other frames to farm
Farm it, or trade for the Prime
Base Lavos cannot be traded — no player can sell you one, so the drops above are the only route to it. Lavos Prime is tradeable, and its set goes for about 20p. If you want the frame rather than the mastery rank, buying the Prime is usually quicker than grinding the base.
Drop locations, chances and enemy levels come from the official drop tables and the regions export, re-read daily. Where a mission node could not be matched to a level band we show the node without levels rather than guessing a range — sending you into content you cannot clear would be worse than saying nothing.
