An opinion or any info would be helpful

Hello!

I'm Arcana and i play GW from 2005 on & off, i never was in collecting skins, OS weapons etc, i have weapon skins that i like ofc but i always wanted a crystalline sword, never had one as a drop from UW, FoW or Zaishen chest (not opened that many),

well the thing is that i can buy one but i'm thinking that it's way too expensive for one item or that i can buy the equivalent in zaishen keys and try my luck (i don't like gambling btw),

i would prefer an inscription one so i can use it across all my characters that's why i'm between trade or gamble,

any experiences from people that opened a lot of zaishen chests and crystalline drops, any info, opinions would be helpful ty.

Have a nice day!

I recently used over 10,000 zkeys and I never got an eternal blade or crystalline sword drop. I did, however, get 4 voltaic spear drops - 2 q9, 1 q10, and a q13. The odds of you getting it from the zchest is probably insanely low, and in the end you would probably be better off just buying one from a person.

Better off to just purchase one instead of gambling with z-chest. Maxed my title, my bf did his and 2 friends did their titles.. One crystalline out of the whole mess, q13 at that

Never had a crystalline from the zchest. But they do drop inscribable crysta's from the HoH chest.

E: if you just want the skin you can make a pre-searing character and do the quests from Devona. She'll give you a crysta skinned sword. You can give it mods like +AR or +enchants, but no inscriptions.

I maxed my title over the Christmas holiday and got the Eternal in the last 500 keys, the Crystalline was much earlier but I nearly missed them both because of a severe lack of attentiveness 😬

I dc'd a few times with ~500 drops on the floor each time too 😐

Worth it? hell no

Ivory is right. I always wanted a Crysta too, ended up buying a Q13 a while ago, much easier than trying your chances with the chest. It might take a few days sat in Kamadan but if that's your aim you gotta suck it up!

Check Kamadan Trade Chat and see if anyone has been selling in recent days and give them a message!
