However, after spending over 3 hours in Shadow Haven this morning working on fordel gems and a new toon, I can pretty much boldly confirm that somehow the Flask of Luck is completely blocking radiant crystals from dropping. I noticed that after a solid 45min-1hr of killing, not a single crystal dropped, while corpses that someone ELSE had killed had plenty of them rotting.
My situation: My main sits at the zone-in and has a flask equipped, while the toon I am killing snakes with does NOT. While my main has flask on, 35-40min of killing yielded absolutely no crystals. Then I'd un-equip the flask and continue killing. Within 4-6 mobs they would start dropping consistently again. This includes named and trash snakes. After another 35-40min of crystals dropping at a normal rate, I'd re-equip the flask and lo and behold they would completely stop dropping.
I know RNG can be very flighty, but after plenty of time testing with the flask both on and off, it's just way too coincidental. Pardon the wordy post I just wanted to be thorough.
Thought it'd be worth looking into as if it indeed is blocking crystals, then there could be other issues.
