Anyway, people can say a friend of a firend of a brother of a cousin of someone they knew a long time ago got one from a monster or something, but with no proof....It stands that they are only a keyless chest drop.

I got mine from.... ICE FLOE... YEAH ITS GOLD 1. YEAH IT HAS REQ 13. YEAH IT HAS NO %DMG XTRA. YEAH ITS MAX DMG. YEAH I GOT IT FROM KEYLESS CHEST RIGHT OUTSIDE OF MARHAN GROTTO. YEAH MARHAN GROTTO WAS BIG CHEST RUN AREA SINCE CHESTS TAKE 15 SECONDS TO GET TO. YEAH I AM THE MAN WITH GOLD CRYSTALLINE. YEAH GUILDWIKI IS WRONG BECAUSE I DIDNT GET IT IN THOSE AREAS. YEAH YOU CAN SEE IT. YEAH ITS NOT A GOOD ONE BUT ITS GOLD PAL. YEAH I USE IT ALL THE TIME.

So to answer your question, I think its chest only, but I disagree with Guildwiki, because I got mine in ICE FLOE. They arent 100% correct, duh!

JDStrider · Jul 12, 2006, 09:25 PM // 21:25

Umm...they nerfed those keyless chests like 5 months ago...

quanzong · Jul 12, 2006, 09:39 PM // 21:39

ya that sucks, keyless chests owned. And those keyless chests outside of marhan grotto was really worth it, because out of 1000 runs to em, I got a crystalline GOLD out of em.

Wiki gets tells where they MOSTLY drop.

Any Keyless chest can drop one...

ways you can get 1 now is win HoH and hope you lucky, 12.5% you recieve if it drops, same with that place in Icy mountains I forget name, by getting it in chest. Or get really good, and run to chests in groups or solo and hope a crystalline drops (if you are a UW or FoW chest runner you are good at running). I think they all equal in difficultly, because costs 1K + 1.5K for key to attempt your chance at UW or FoW, and costs a lot of time and key at place in Icy Mountains, and costs a lot of good team member to get one in HoH.

I consider myself lucky since I used the keyless chest for weeks just for money, never expected a crystalline and pop goes a gold 1, even if its not THE BEST, its max damage, and its gold that all I care, and I recently found out higher req does more damage and its req 13, so I'm really happy. However I think GW makes a lot of bugs on purpose for those who buy the game early to get a good chance to get to abuse a lot of the bugs they set.

of course wiki isn't always right, what do you expect from a site where anyone can edit. do a good job at filtering out 99.9% of incorrect stuff however..

you are blatently wrong, wiki says they can't be got anywhere else. you say it is wrong because you got one months ago?? wiki is saying you CAN'T not you could in some old age :/

Uhm. No. A higher req doesn't do more damage. If your mastery is at 13 and your sword is req. 8 you will do the same dmg as a req. 13 sword with 13 mastery.

Not really true, I tested it with Crystalline req 13 and this Purple Longsword req 8, both same damage, neither have damage modifer or penetration %, and same hilt, and when I was doing dmg agaisnt a mob with my crystalline i was doing 16 - 22 dmg (non criticals) and when I tested the long sword it was doing 15 - 19, I killed the same mob type 7 times with each sword.

Now either high req does more dmg or different skin types mean some do more dmg then others. I was using the same swordmanship 13 durning the test for both weapons.

ANYWAY...Quansong suggested UW and FoW Chest farming...which isnt really accurate, since the keys that need keys don't drop them anyway, the chests that you get to open as a reward for quests can drop them.

EvaUnit01 · Jul 19, 2006, 02:42 PM // 14:42

Where do I go to farm for a Crystaline Sword?

King of War · Jul 19, 2006, 02:51 PM // 14:51

You can't "farm" them, as you only get them from the chest in HoH at the end and the chests in FoW after completing one of the quests(chest has same look). Correct me if I'm wrong, those r the only two ways.

You use to be able to get them in the desert along with some other places but that was taken out long ago. I have only had a purple drop and a white one drop when that was ingame. So atm the rarest crystalline is a white req 7 max damage one sort of like the uncondtional weapons

King of War · Jul 19, 2006, 02:57 PM // 14:57

Ya, thats what i thought, i was looking at some old threads and that came up about the farm in the desert, guess it was good they took it out to keep its rarity intact.
