Why are drop rates so awful low on crystalline dust? I honestly get more ectos than dust… Just the other day I got 6 glacial lodestones, but after a solid day of farming bags, chests, everything I could find…..not a single drop of dust.

I have 10 total in my bank right now. What’s going on with this stuff? There’s no way it’s intentionally this hard to get. I must be missing something…

you can salvage you globs of ectoplasm into crystalline dust btw, just incase you didn’t know.

Every ecto is approximately 2 piles of dust and a bunch of essences of luck.

It’s been like this since the September 3rd update.

IIRC, the reason they made dust s salvagable from ectos is because of the very low drop rate.

from what I remember, in the week before the ecto → dust update, crystalline dust went up in price from 30s to 40s. 5 minutes after update, it was down to 10s.
I use the formula: 1 ecto + 1 MSK = 1.8 crystalline dust + 110 luck

Well clearly your problem is you’re farming a type of enemy that gives glacial lodestones (why?… that’s such a cheap material…) instead of something that drops dust.

I get most of my Crystalline Dust from Heavy loot bags, honestly.
