Sorry it's not going your way this fest. D: Have you tried switching venues? I find that sometimes I'll get crap drops in one venue, but I'll get better drops if I switch to a different venue. The new Ruins, even though they're supposed to be the new best place to farm, has been only okay for me. I switched into the Delta yesterday to farm for some Swipp materials for a trade and got a pretty good drop for pinecones there. Afterwards I settled into the Arena and it was amazing. It varies day by day, of course, but I can't bring myself to sit in a venue that's not paying out and would rather try my luck elsewhere.
Sometimes the "best" venues by numbers don't drop as much because of how much time it takes to kill monsters. I like the lower levels myself because I can burn through mob after mob after mob. The faster I can go, the more currency I can find. Even though the upper levels might have a higher encounter rate, they also take more time to clear.
And then there's RNG to contend with. No workarounds for that. xD;

Can someone please tell me what RNG is? c:
