You also get pop items for the regular NMs which means more chances to get the items.

Regular NM doesnt drop black belt items anymore (that's what we like to call a nerf) and you only have a 8% chance (+/- 4%) WITH TH9+ to get an HQ pop, to pop a mob THAT NO LONGER HAS A 100% CHANCE TO DROP BB ITEM. (This was also a nerf)

Black belt is stil basically THE most powerful non-weapon item for MNK. It SHOULD take some time to get. That said, if you take a group to do KS99s and at least a few of them bring an orb, you're probably going to get your item.

This is mostly true (the parts that aren't opinions anyway) and has nothing whatsoever to do with the HQ pop drop rate.

It's not like crests/bst seals/k crests/k seals are that hard to get. Get some friends to come that don't want 'em and pool them to you.

I know you're still referring to black belt, but at the moment it takes more kindred seals to get a d.ring than it does alexandrite to get a mythic.

If you want to farm k.crest or h.k.crest instead then IT WILL TAKE FOUR TIMES AS MANY OF THOSE THAN IT TAKES ALEXANDRITE TO GET A MYTHIC.
