You can get any rune, anywhere as long as the respective enemies appear
(I'm sure of that because I can farm everything much faster thanks to emulator save states)

Actually it is that simple. The drop rate is exactly 1/256, which is pretty rare indeed. That is for 1 Beast Commander alone. Getting the BC drop a Phero Crystal plus another any enemy dropping its item as well, you might end up not getting the crystal due to the one item per battle restriction. Look at the guide for further details. Due to the fact that a BC never comes alone and with no formations holding more than one BC, technically the drop rate in general is even lower than 1/256 for all battles with a BC in it.

I think that once you step your foot in a new area,dropped items appear more frequently. Yesterday once i entered Scarleticia Area,2 Holly Fairs appeared,i defeated them,and i got a Nameless Urn,just like that.


If only Mangosh and Persian Lamps were that easy.... :cry:

this was only luck(or a lucky rng).the rng is the ONLY factor,which has influence on the drop rate,nothing else :!:
