How many Madman's Restraint you need

Talent levels 7 and 8 take 1 each and levels 9 and 10 take 2 each: 6 per talent, 12 for Skill and Burst, 18 for all three. Taking every character above to 10/10/10 would take 36, roughly 14 clears of The Doctor at 2.7 materials a clear, counting the Mask of the Virtuous Doctor and Elixir of the Heretic it also drops as converted with Dream Solvent (the same assumption the calculator makes).

Most players stop well short of that. The Trounce Domain Recommender reads your account export, subtracts what you already own and ranks all 14 weekly bosses by what you are actually short of.

Where to farm Madman's Restraint

The Doctor, in Nod-Krai, drops Madman's Restraint, Mask of the Virtuous Doctor and Elixir of the Heretic. Your first three weekly boss rewards each week cost 30 Original Resin and later ones 60. A spare Mask of the Virtuous Doctor or Elixir of the Heretic can be turned into Madman's Restraint with Dream Solvent, 1 for 1, so a surplus from the same boss is never wasted.
