@LJcrew I think it really depends which resource you are trying to conserve to farm points and what goal you are trying to accomplish.

No matter what, if you have a small number of keys (less than 15 or so), you should probably be doing the hardest difficulty your cards can handle to get the most points, cards, and materials possible per key.

If you are farming points with limited swords or BP but many keys, then beginner is the best bet with a possible of 800,000+ per battle point with no event point boosters. Last event I averaged at 407,726 per BP in beginner EH with no point booster over 34 BP used. My cards were strong enough that element didn't matter. I farmed most of those points during Dark with my passion team.

If you are trying to farm materials and/or cards, then I have to say Advanced is your best option. You get decent points (I average around 150,000-200,000 per BP, no hard stats on that). However the other benefits of more Chimry and possible JP outweigh the reduction in points per BP. If you are going by "Encounter" (400k*2 vs 175k*4) you are pretty much breaking even with advanced offering only slightly lower returns.
