We generally don't advise investing excessive gold and resources into advance honing before transferring. Especially if you don't want to push your alt anytime soon to unlock a new content.

After a few weeks, when the prices of t4 materials go down, you can continue advance honing on your alts, if it is cheaper than normal honing.
