Buying fewer keys doesn’t actually save gold, though. If you get 30 encryptions per day, and you buy 30 keys day 1 but also obtain 5 keys while opening, you don’t waste those 5 keys. That’s just 5 fewer key you need to buy the next day. They don’t expire
So, here's the problem. 1) Keys. It is generally always worth it to buy the 30 cheap key pr. day. Even if you don't do fractals at all. You can buy the encryptions on the TP and then open them and make a small profit. The profit is naturally a lot better if you also do fracs and get the encryptions from there. Anyone who do all T4's pr. day (+cm's) will have extra encryptions, so the price of the unopened encryptions are always low enough that its worth opening them (at least so far). 2) At least atm. it is NOT worth it to attune rings before salvaging them. The reason is that attuning only give you 1 extra dice roll. And the dice can only give you 1 or 2 Stabilizing Matrices. The base ring in it self however give 1 dice roll of 1-20 Stabilizing Matrices. Infusing the ring IS worth it (as long as you have dropped the mats to infuse it for free, else not). An infused ring give you 1 extra dice roll of 1-20 Stabilizing Matrices. It is worth noting that the averages are different on the dice. It is also worth noting that it (at least atm.) is worth it to salvage even none infused/attuned rings, even if you have to buy the salvage tool (for 1 gold pr. use). Its not a huge profit, but its worth it
Buy keys, if you have some left over then just save them til next day. I did that for years. I now get more boxes than keys and don’t ever experience this anymore.

What can end up saving you gold is if you stockpile the keys and don't have to buy the more expensive ones later.
I came to the comments immediately to say this. He has flawed logic.

I’ve been playing g for 5 years. And never knew about adding infusions to rings… thanks!

Nice advise
