5/5 on my char 1/5 on my friends, since servers came up, found a better drop rate off of the imps in vunkurl, got about 4 of those to drop in an hour opposed to the 6-7 I spent out in Mount Zhayolm.. fuck you SE
Took about 11? hours to get 17 crests with TH4.
gone 3/5 in 40 mins in Beaucendine S on Fulminators and Gigas near the OP.
going to get crest while working on next trial
I did 100 trials of my new dagger trial and I havent gotten one single drop...
btw it was weapons in ro'maeve, EP and then went to DC-EM+T. Yeah no drop
Sitting on 7 crests and still 8000 merits to go till I can get 81
Still at 0 crests. This is pretty terrible.
I've seen three drop in the tree in ~2 hours of killing. One off the Saplings, one off a Gobbue, and one off a Processionaire.
Also, the Magian update is really hot. I'm got ~100 kills left (started at 300) just killing rabbits whenever lightning weather is up and I happen to be near them. We knocked out my friends sapling stage of his staff in 10 kills. Not to mention I get to go Dancer again! Shit, I might do a STR/ATK dagger just because it'll be so easy.
Got the last four crests I needed from Sprinklers and Groundskeepers in Sky in roughly 90 minutes. Most likely luck, I know, but worth a shot if everywhere else is shitting on you.
I think higher level = more crest, after getting 1 in valley of sorrows in 3 hours, me and my buddy went to King ramps tomb to skeles, and got 10 in 2 hours. both on mnk, made 2 shotting them a blast.
I tried wyverns in Grauberg [S] and Mature Treants in Caedarva Mire for about 4 hours yesterday. During that time, I did not get a single crest drop. I decided to duo some Tonberries in Abyssea - Konschtat and we got 9 crests in about 2 hours. For whatever it's worth, my duo partner infused the TH atma and we were both on mage jobs.
Haven't seen a single crest in well over 100 kills. Have tried Boyahda and Mount Z. Going to try some VT+ mobs and see if that changes anything >.>
I got 2 from Greater Manticores, 1 from Greater Cockatrice, 2 in Boya from Korrigans, 1 from Gigas in Xcar S and 1 from Demon in Xcar S
Got a single crest from outside Beadeaux [S] on a Quad there but gone none farming inside...
We got a few off of Giants, Demons, and Imps in Xarc[S] with 5 people spread over two alliances, then swapped to Bibiki Bay when two members left. Got about 6 crests over 3 hours in Xarc[S], and 7 crests in Bibiki over about the same time frame. Killed damn near everything in Bibiki, efts rabbits birds gobs giraffes.
Last night we were able to get approximately 20 crests in a matter of 2 and a half/3 hours. Not amazing by any view, but smooth when fighting cointeaches in xarc (s). Silence them and kick some demon butt.
Also - for bsts out there this is a viable solo camp to do crest farming. If you go to the ramp that would lead you to Uleguarande[sp] there are Couerls (Carcals?) that con EM-T++ to an 80 bst. These destroy cointeaches. One of them can kill 3-4 easily before a pet swap is needed. They also have a silence move that proves fairly useful... not to mention blaster, a bst's best friend. For those traditionalist bsts who don't believe in abyssea, this would also be a decent exp camp for 80-81 (possibly 82).
And per usual... damn you SE
I got my 5 (do NOT try this unless you got stones/time to blow) off worms in Aby-La Thiene solo mostly tho I tried to help a friend and they dried up. (Was on smn, btw)
I had to go back for stones twice (was leaving with 20 minutes left). Also mind Megamouth Mikey if you mess with the worms alone, he will eat you for breakfast.
At least on Quetz the worms aren't hunted for XP, so it can be a decent place to hunt if you got a excess of stones. Make sure you go /whm tho for erase and tele out.
