Scroll Month Event

I was dragging my feet on writing this post, but I should write it before tomorrow, before someone makes a decision and take the first reward available.
This month, hithere decides to run a month long event. I believe this is the first time hithere runs a month long event.
Everyday in this month, you can claim a Wildered Bottle. And you can trade in for the following prizes :

5 Bottles : Scroll Month 1
Gold Key x 1, Synthesis Stone 1 x 1, Synthesis Rune 1 x 1
This is the basis for the comparisons below.

10 Bottles : Scroll Month 2
Gold Key x 1, Synthesis Stone 1 x 1, Synthesis Rune 1 x 1, Scroll Ash Lv2 x 1
It is not clear that this is better than the first prize. It may be possible to get TWO of the Scroll Month 1 rewards and the trade-off is (gold key, synthesis stone, synthesis rune) against a (scroll ash lv2).
Keep in mind that a scroll ash lv2 is worth only 1.67 synthesis rune, and a synthesis stone when used on level 3 to level 4 synthesis is worth 4.2 synthesis stone. And you get an extra gold key.

15 Bottles : Scroll Month 3
Gold Key x 2, Synthesis Stone 1 x 2, Synthesis Rune 1 x 2, Scroll Ash Lv2 x 2
Compare this with 3 times Scroll Month 1, you are trading (gold key, synthesis stone, synthesis rune) for (scroll ash lv2 x 2). If you use the synthesis rune for level 3 to level 4 synthesis, you are still better off getting Scroll Month 1.

20 Bottles : Scroll Month 4
Gold Key x 3, Synthesis Stone 1 x 3, Synthesis Rune 1 x 3, Scroll Ash Lv3 x 1
A Scroll Ash Lv3 is worth 13.67 Synthesis Rune. So now, the trade off is (gold key, synthesis stone, synthesis rune) for (scroll ash lv3). If you are using the synthesis stone for level 3 to 4, then you are better off claiming Scroll Month 4.

25 Bottles : Scroll Month 5
Gold Key x 4, Synthesis Stone 1 x 4, Synthesis Rune 1 x 4, Scroll Ash Lv4 x 1
A Scroll Ash Lv4 is worth 118.67 Synthesis Rune, so this is clearly a better reward than all the above.

30 Bottles : Scroll Month 6
Gold Key x 5, Synthesis Stone 1 x 5, Synthesis Rune 1 x 5, Scroll Card V x 1
Finally, a Scroll Card V can be used to trade for any of the level 5 scrolls. And a level 5 scroll is worth more than 900 synthesis runes, so this is definitely the ultimate reward. There are 31 days in March, so to get this, you are only allowed a single day off.

Good luck and don't jump and claim the first reward tomorrow, or you'll deny yourself the ultimate reward.
