Remove Protean Crystal Requirement for First Quest

[Nezerius]

Only way i could see you with zero protean is only partaking in ridiculously high NM's, or simply being AFK in all NM's AND everyone else in your pty also not participating.

Or, y'know, they could be grouped up with players that are far higher in level, who also participate in the mob killing (which is often the case with NM train groups)
It's not just exp that's greatly affected by lvl differences, but loot drops as well. I didn't start getting protean crystals randomly from mobs, while in a NM group, until I got closer to 20.

First; your probably not looking at your inventory if you have done some fates you should of gotten at least one.

Two; you skipped the dialog, your anti social and have not asked for help.

I soloed up to lvl 3, didn't get any protean crystals, and then jumped onto the NM train with a few friends and got to lvl 10

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.
