I recently started Alchemy and the success rate to create Alchemy Crystals is about 30%.
Is there an easier way to either raise the success rate or obtain Alchemy Crystals faster?

Easiest way is just to raise alchemy mastery, as well as the skill related to the type of crystal you want to create (I.E.: rank barrier spikes to increase your success rate of making barrier crystals, etc.).

Ranking the crystal related skill will boost your success rate considerably. Barrier spikes starts off with like an 8% boost per rank, hitting 99% at r9.

I'm pretty sure it was less than that. I had like around 90% at rank 7. Unless we're talking about increased % rates from daily effects.

Barrier spikes is really the fastest skill you can have to rank up alchemy mastery, since wood is plentiful and cheap.
You can also do golem but you have to deal with the failure rate somehow.
You get the best success rates through a combination of Samhain effects (real life Saturday) and rain/thunderstorm. Alchemy Mastery helps as said too.
If you can get difficult prefix enchant, which I'm not sure where you get from, it adds 2% to crystal-making success.

Yeah, 99% on r9 is on Samhain. Otherwise you'll be around 75% which is enough, or close to 95% if you go to r5 where they get really useful.

Go straight for Barrier Spikes btw, if you haven't noticed everyone's love for this godly skill.

Barrier Spikes is a fantastic skill if you're an archer, or even for party play.
With upcoming skills like the revamped Support Shot and Crash Shot, party play only gets better and better.

Barrier spikes are good whether its party or solo. Doesn't matter.
Its godly.
Easily the best alchemy skill for multipurpose.

I guess this means that frozen blast and other upcoming skills won't make alchemy mastery ranking any easier?
