Is there any way to get the Charged Quartz Crystal without the endless grinding from places of power? The celestial build is the only one tied to time =/ even the charged ambrite you can buy on TP, why not the Quartz?

Sorry for my english.

To answer your first question: No, not really. Though I think I remember one of the recent LS rewards being 3 Charged Quartz Crystals or something like it.

Just charge one each day for a month and you’ll be ready to make a full set of armor. If porting to a place of power daily is of issue — some people just leave an alt on one and farm it daily.

A month is not a horrible amount of time. Yes, that is my personal belief. I understand that. Another belief of mine? I’m perfectly fine that the game has items in it that aren’t available for instant gratification.

Either way — Good luck.

You can visit a friend’s Home Instance that has the Skill Point node, if you so desire.

Good luck.

You can randomly acquire a Charged Quartz Crystal by mining a Quartz Crystal Formation in someone’s home instance. That’s the only way to get them faster than one per day via place of power charging.

They drop (rarely) from Trick or Treat bags. If you happen to be loaded and very impatient, you could buy some or farm them with maize balm. Would be very expensive though, and reliant on RNG.

Beside charging quartz you can get some from mining quaztz node chance will be around 10% imo. One is in home instance and I also 2 or 3 in Dry Top including rich one. Just switch maps there and mine them over and over.

Thanks, that’s really helpful. I didn’t knew that on Dry Top. (I’m not a PvE fan)

For others, thanks for help, I already have a palce of power in my home instance and a quartz node, with an Alt in the door to farm.

I took more than a month to build up my Elementalist to full celestial (5 for each piece, so 5*6[armor] + 5*4[trinkets, but the amulet which is ascended] + 5 per weapon [3 weapons, 1 staff+2 daggers] = THE ETERNITY [65 – more than 2 months of grinding, less if you have a good RNG on quartz nodes]) , now its my Engineer time :/, at least is only 2 weeks and a half for me from now.

Sorry for my english.

I’ve only ever gotten Charged Quartz Crystals from the home instance node. The Dry Top nodes have only given me the normal quartz crystals so far. And since I’ve been farming those religiously ever since Dry Top opened, I feel reasonably confident in stating that Charged Quartz Crystals can only be mined from the home instance node.
