Title: Crystals
Post by: Cobrec on July 29, 2003, 02:37:43 am

Where is the best place to find crystals?  I have not had much time lately to get on and explore, so I need to find a good place to crystal hunt

Crystal Spawns are everywhere, so there is no \"better place\" to hunt... Unfortunately for you.

Yes, Amin just added a bunch of new spawn locations so there should be more crystals to find.

As I understand it, the crystal spawn points are static; are they on a set schedule as well?  The reason I ask is because I have yet to see a single one, and was wondering if the crystals are scooped up by players who have already mapped the spawn locations and times... I\'m just wondering if there\'s any point in continuing to look for them.

Crystals do not spawn in random locations, but they do spawn after a random duration after they are picked up from one location. It usually takes from 1-45 minutes for a crystal to spawn in the same location again.

I speculate that there are more spawn points than the amount of crystals allowed to exist at any one time. I believe that, when a crystal is picked up from one location, it is replaced somewhere else by another crystal. In this manner, there are always the same number of crystals existing in the world, with their locations constantly random and shifting.

However I could be totally wrong, but I\'ve never noticed a total lack of crystals during busy times unless crystal spawning was actually broken at the time.
