The chance is roughly 20% or so of getting a higher grade, usually happens to me when I actually need the crystal the level of monster etc. is for >_>

To be fair, does anyone read those?
Plus, some of it is quite literally illegible, or at least in Magatia.

It's roughly 10-20%, as above. I recommend hunting for the lowest etcs you need first to save time on later ones, vice hunting high-end first and having way too many by the time you're done.

Can this happen while disassembling equips?

A blue marine disassembled into intermediate 2s, so I'm going to have to say yes since intermediate 2s are 81-90, while blue marine is 95.

K nevermind then, that's quite a massive gap between blue marine and dragon staff o_o
I've disassembled at least 15 other weapons and got all the right crystals from them, so I guess either there's no randomness, or I got really lucky. The range of possible amount of crystals you get from weapons is like 10-20, for intermediate 3s.
