How early will I need to be at T5 if I've used overnight bag drop?

Staying in the Sofitel overnight in a few weeks as I have an 06:25 flight to Crete with the family.

I didn't realise BA offered a night before drop off service - so I'm wondering as we're in the hotel next door what time we'd need to realistically need to be at the airport for if we have no bags to drop and are already checked in?

TIA

Results of my research into 10* AN most efficient use of EDVDs

So posted a question a few days back on a different thread:

https://www.reddit.com/r/torncity/comments/1uw3uxf/10_adult_novelty_happy_jump_question/

on the best happy jump approach with 10* AN

 

The perceived wisdom on that thread seemed to be the most efficient was to stack xanex and use all 5 possible E-DVDs gained over a 10 day period rather than do one at a time with 1 xanex.  So as I said I would on that thread, I tested both.

 

Option 2 (5 eDVDs not 6 as I accidentally wrote in the original post)

16-Jul – stacked to 1000E with 4 Xanex, used 5 EDVDs, used ecstasy, trained for 31962.29 stat gain, refilled, trained for 4692.33 stat gain.

Total 36654.62

 

Option 1

20-Jul - 16-Jul – stacked to 400E with 1 Xanex, used 1 EDVD, used ecstasy, trained for 5511.78 stat gain, refilled, trained for 1977.02 stat gain.

Total 7488.8

 

Option 1 repeated 5 times = 37444 stat gain. Over the same amount of time waiting to get 5 DVDs

 

So – it is in fact better to train each DVD separately despite the original thread thinking it wasn’t.

Stat gain difference was 789 in favour of option 1 and less risky

I Was able to also use natural E regen during the time I was stacking in the first test

Less risk as an OD using the ecstasy would have only cost 1 EDVD rather than 5 (and also no stacking risk for Xanex ODs)

10* Adult Novelty Happy Jump question

So I recently started working in a 10* AN so I get an E-DVD every 2 days and the happy boost is doubled to 5000. I want to use these to train rather than sell.

I was thinking there were 2 approaches

  1. Every 2 days - use the EDVD (5000 happy) + some sweets to fill booster + natural 5025 happy from Island = something like 11000 happy +Escatsy (22000 happy) ish.

  2. Save the max 6 DVDs over 12 days before booster is maxed out (30,000 happy), plus natural 5025 + ecstasy = ~70000 happy.

so if my calculations are right - 22000 happy every 2 days (11000/day) or 70000 every 12 days (5800/day)

2 seems riskier as if I OD on the ecstasy its $25 down the drain - rather than a single £4m DVD, and 1 seems to give more "happy/day"

My question is - is the boost to gym gains from happiness linear or is there some exponential nature that would make option 2 the better choice?
