Then you have people who mine up 9000+ crystals all down the board and I say no damn way they didn't do this legit, I do understand there are treasure maps that drop crystals and maybe they do that over time but then you check next day and they have same amount the next day then I say to myself time to find another source of farming GiL or undercut them.
There is another better way. Go to an atherial node and mine it. Reduce it and depending on quality youll receive a nice chunk of crystals or clusters. Just tag a single node from the pair of nodes on opposite sides of the atherial and go right back and collect again. 15 minutes netted me about 800 fire crystals. I think it was fire...could have been water. Not sure now which one it was but you get the idea.
