Arrow decision

I am struggling to decide on new arrows. I just switched from relatively cheap rental limbs to my first set of bought limbs and there is a stark difference in how my bow behaves. I used to shoot 31,5 inch arrows with a 700 spine that were 265gn fully build with 32 pounds on my fingers at 30,5 inch draw length. My new limbs have 35 pounds at my draw length, but the arrow speed increased drastically more than I expected. The 265gn arrows went from 175fps to 215fps and are now too weak for my bow.

I am string walking and tried to get my crawls halve way decent on the shooting range, but now I lack the right feel when it comes to 3d targets.

When I went four the first training in our 3d Parcour, I wasn’t very accurate, which I expected, but my arrows got completely destroyed, whenever I missed. I broke 5 out of 12 arrows in one session.

I am now looking for some stiffer arrows with a 600 spine to match my bow better, but is it worth it to go for light arrows right away? I will take some time to adjust to my new limbs and would like to not waste a lot of money braking nice arrows all the time. But if I go for a lot cheaper arrows, they will be a lot heavier and fly very different to what I want to go for.

Is a sacrificial set of arrows worth the money saved? Or should I get the arrows I want to shoot and just take the risk of braking some during training?
