Coliseum venue: Arena
Battles: 500
Strange Chests: 18

Coliseum venue: Redrock Cove Battles: 110 Strange Chests: 1 Compared to... Coliseum venue: Harpy's Roost Battles: 110 Strange Chests: 4 Had a lot more mimic encounters in the latter, which most likely explains the uptick in chest drops. Also, I tended to get a chest between 13-20 battles in H'sR, but it puttered out past 80 battles. RNG can be very fickle, ha ha!! As for Redrock Cove... Mimics tend to be far and few in-between. Got mostly materials for swaps from there. Maybe my RNG there was particularly bad. [emoji=ridgeback tongue size=1]

Shiny hunting extension for Chrome

While it's intended for Pokemon, I've found it also works incredibly well for FR battle tracking since it's just a simple counter you can use with your keyboard, just adding a quick extra key press to your usual hotkey rotation. It doesn't interact with FR at all, it just adds or takes away from the counter when the key is pressed, so it's ToS compliant and easier than a lot of other methods (in my experience).
