    Sure, it got me plenty of Anemos crystals, but those are completely useless at that point, since the option to convert them doesn't unlock until after you've shown a protean crystal to Krile.
    Hmmm kind of odd first 3 levels I had around 35 if the smaller crystals, i was doing consecutive chains and was well geared, and mobs 1-2 levels above mind made them drop faster, was risky though. So unless you were not making chains I can believe that reason. Did you at any point make it to chain 30? those were usually guarantee 1-10 if solo, 5-15 in duo. Only other reason I could see is that you are just plain unlucky with RNG.

    I had at least two chains close to 30, soloing equal level mobs as a squishy RDM. I had vercure taking up dps time, which eventually caused me to drop both chains before reaching 30. This was before the knowledge of the eurekan potion being really strong for soloing, which is what eventually allowed me to still get a few high chains at lvl 10, while missing magicite.
