1- Light is now extremely easy to get. I completed 4 weapons to Physeos stage and I have 87 extra frosted protean crystals from Pagos. Just join any Cassie prep group and enjoy the light.
2- With how easy NMs to spawn now, crystals are easier to get also. In Hydatos, we literally pulled all the mobs that spawns Ceto (level 64) in one pull and killed them at the same time.
So the changes did affect the first two points. If you can kill mobs a lot quicker and NMs spawn rate increased, then your light gain and crystal gain already increases.
Well in theory you can solo 95% in Eureka entirely. If you only limit yourself to NMs that are 2 levels lower than your current level, and only mobs 1 level higher, you can do everything in all the zones up to Hydatos. That's because you can buy all the upgrade items of each boss from the Birdwatcher except for the NM Providance Watcher in Hydatos. But I'm pretty sure that in a future patch they will allow you to buy those items, so you'd be able to get your relic 100% solo.
