[Draft] Item Maker

so, uh, someone said you get 9-18 monster crystals on his knight with level 3 maker when he breaks down weapons. Do you notice any pattern(like, do claws or something give more crystals, or higher level equips give more/less then others)? Cuz i plan on making a bunch of the level 80 pirate overalls and shooting for the stars getting the best damn overall ever, but level 80 weapons of all classes seem to be the rarest around. See plenty of cheap ass level 90s people got from newts, or level 70s just around, but i'll be damned if level 80s arent few and far between(at least the crummy ones that I could get relatively cheap, i see somewhat often some that wouldn't really be worth it to me to just break down)

Also, can you give an estimate on how many crystals a top/bottom would give? You gave overall, but if I could get a decent amount from top/bottom, then collecting some nib armor might be worth it. I just dont want to stock up on 200k-500k pieces of armor, when the weapons i do find are 500k-800k(at least the ones i buy) and give like 4 times the crystals.
