The TT&T monsters actually give very little experience compared to standard high PL monsters. Feel free to play it just on Normal, that way you can spend more time on standard arenas and get more XP overall.
It sounds odd, but that's how it is. The "tough" monsters give less XP than standard monsters.
Ah, thank you for that little insight. Saved me blowing more shards on a higher level difficulty try. I'll give it a shot on Normal, and see how well I fare, and then use the shards on higher difficulty on one of the other rounds.
