Star-Piece Strategy
At first I was very upset to hear that we would not get a Free Double Stardust event instead we would have to PAY! for Half of that for only 30 minutes. But then I realized, if we get a Double Stardust event down the road and add on Star piece that would be a lot of stardust! So i'm going to save them until the next Stardust Event.
How do your thoughts on the Starpiece?

Proper strategy:
- Buy on sale and wait for 2x dust event.
- Collect 9 10km lucky eggs and sync them to hatch simultaneously.
- Drop lures, catch as many mons as possible while walking to hatch eggs, preferably in a nest with of a weather-synced species.
DO NOT RAID OR BATTLE - Raids are very inefficient from a dust standpoint, and battling normal gyms has no dust. You can catch 5 mons for 500 stardust faster than you can do a raid.
DO NOT SYNC WITH LUCKY EGG - No dust from mass evolves, the most efficient use of a lucky egg. Syncing with lures makes sense.
If it was double dust, I would probably use one at least once a week on the 7 day catch.
With the 50% bonus, I will probably horde them and use only when I have a bunch of 10ks or during double dust.
Ironically, they lowered the value of star pieces by putting level 35 mons in the wild and I don’t intend to run them all the time.
