    The 1 crystal retainer venture joke is getting old now

    Ok, haha, it was funny the first time. Now it's like every 2 ventures my retainer comes back with this nonsense.

    At least that crystal is useful. I'd rather have it over another Stuffed Bom Boko.

    My guess is that the 1 crystal return (which I agree is laughable and shouldn't be a thing) might be the result of the retainer bringing back a unique item that you already have in your inventory, or some other item that your character can't collect for some reason. But that's just a guess on my part.

    Since you mentioned 2 ventures, I assume this is in regards to quick ventures. These often result in items tagged unique. So be sure to clear those out asap.

    I assumed they just replaced fish with crystals. But even if your answer isn't true I like it more.

    Honestly, if the issue of the 1 crystal return is due to bringing back a unique you already have or just a bad roll on the table, it should certainly be more than ONE crystal. I mean bring back at least 20-30!

    Speaking of fish and crystals... it annoys me that Fishing retainers can't get crystals at all... not even just water crystals :P Fishing retainers are gathering retainers just like Botanists and Miners!
