Please increase crystal sand amounts

[ManuelBravo]

The fact of the matter is that Crystal Sand is obnoxiously tedious to farm for the majority of players, as the majority don't bother with crafting/gathering (it's why crafter/gatherers are able to make so much currency from their professions). The devs really need to address the issue, especially considering it's the end of the content cycle and there's no reason to gate the Anima progression anymore.

That being said though, they haven't nerfed Relics and old content loot rates, so it's highly doubtful that they're going to do anything about this issue either.

Actually the fact of the matter is that players don't understand that relics have always been a grind. It's not a matter of having jobs maxed out for sand step. It is an option for those who put in the time to level them. For those who don't focus on crafting or gathering SE made an options. IF people want to do relics, don't want to put in the work to other paths they can tried other methods.

For example;Leves, Materia conversion, Desynthesis.

NOTE: IF your choosing to ask for a break, even though the umbrite has been nerfed, you now have people who just want to be spoiled. It's well balanced, sand isn't hard to get. TRY request help from your FC. After all what is the point of having an FC that won't help? Airship items are trade able and your FC should be more than happy help if you can provide the GC item to them. EVEN IF YOU DON'T CRAFT

In conclusion;

There are options people just want the easy way out it seems.

Keep in mind, SE has even boosted the xp for crafting. How else can they nerf while keeping it balanced?

The bonus sand is pretty reasonable as long as you trade items for sand all at once after anima wants to exceed it's limits ( second bar).

While crafting may NOT be for everyone it is an option were you don't need to have it fully maxed out, but helps min lvl 50. These options may not agree with everyone, hence once again the item list to get sand, and the path that players chose may not b e as pleasant, the bottom line is, It's easy when people put an effort.

One the Side note, old relics for Zodiac has been nerfed. Drop rates on items are 100%, Light gathering has had a major boost as well, and if your referring the items that are crafted or sold why nerf that when they are easy to make even at low levels? once again MAKE THE EFFORT
