    Honestly, shards/crystals should drop from monsters. I don't understand why they took away the drop from monsters.

    I have mined all of mine since, because there's honestly no way in hell i'm paying 50g+ for a shard.

    They do. Kill some sprites.

    He doesn't mind us conducting trials so close to his bazaar, so long as he's properly compensated... Yes, Portus, we pay him in sorcery-blasted bird flesh. - Cocobygo

    I think the wind/earth/lightning/water elementals drop shards, but then again it's like 2 shards each which is just as time consuming and as negligible exp as mining them, if not more so because they don't re spawn right away.

    Back in 1.0 when I ran out of shards I would just do a DOW/DOM class for a while and eventually i'd kill enough things to have more shards from all the mobs dropping. Now they don't do that so I can't rely on that method any longer. It is just frustrating that I have to invest time into getting these items while not getting any exp in return.
