    Based on what you're saying, it really doesn't sound like you have.

    Again, not sure what to tell you, RNG is RNG. It just seems that you've run into some exceptionally bad luck with it.

    I've done 4 of the ARR relics, 1 when it was current and 3 after nerfs. After the nerfs it usually took me only 5-6 Fates tops to get a crystal to drop, with stubborn ones never taking more than 15.

    I know you've said it before that you've done this before, but are you sure you're in the right zones? Not all ARR zones gives crystals, spent about an hour on my last run of the relic in the wrong zone and wondering why I wasn't getting anything, then /facepalmed when I checked a guide and saw that zone I was in didn't drop any crystals.

    Which would be a fine response if she said that the quest is bugged and that she doesn't get atma when she should. She didn't.

    And what she said is that she thinks it should take less time than even that due to how outdated the content is.


    Basically, she said that the lvl50 relics are so outdated and useless by now, that they should reduce the grind significantly to make it more in-line with what you get from them. And I agree. Right now their biggest value is glamour and, more importantly, story. No part of the quest should take more than 1h or so in total, but one that'd take 2 or 3 would be acceptable if the rest would take a dozen or so minutes mostly. It is just too outdated to give it the "grindy relic" treatment. It's no different than some crappy high-quality gear you get from other sidequests in value anymore.

    And this is what she's been trying to say all this time.

    Of course...those of you who didn't understand it the first several times around probably won't still...but...meh. I didn't write here earlier so I could add my opinion on the suggestion anyway.
