Not just Danger Missions
I can confirm that Shining Fire Crystals have been dropping from FSC boxes too. I did a mission 9-1: An Occurance at Owlite Keep, and also got crystals all the way to depth 26 (this is all on Elite).
...about time!

Amusing
Interesting how everyone starts complaining when shining are the hardest to get and that has now changed (seemingly if even by accident) to radiant being the hardest.

@Skepticraven
For now this is advantageous. Four weeks from now when I actually need to get radiant fire crystals again, this will be an issue. I assume it will be resolved by then but... still. Plus not everyone is in the 5* vet boat.

Oi
My pleas have been answered. Please leave the bug unfixed for a month while players like me gather these shiny things, if it is a bug.

DON'T REPORT THIS! WE NEED SHININGS!
While I can downgrade my radiants and get 30K in less than a week

I ran out of Radiants before the update.

Elite orbs, never have enough of them.
I hope this bug gets fixed as late as possible.

@Materialist
Has this been effecting orbs as well? Wow... that's crazy. I really, really need to get in on that then.

Orbs seem to be unchanged. Got an eternal in FSC earlier.

Awww :(
No...
I wish we could craft orbs like crystals. I never have enough 3 and 4* orbs.

orbs
You can farm them pretty efficiently in Axes of Evil and Return to Axes of Evil.

The patch notes...
They didn't say if they were gonna fix it yet...what does this mean? Will it take longer than we thought? Or was there a reason?

Hypothesis
I think it might have to do with the upcoming "challenge" mode. Theyre probably working on something harder, so the best stuff will be obtained from the hardest difficulty. Just a complete guess though.

You guys are stupid we need
[No personal attacks please] we need more radiants instead of more shinings this is a problem that needs to get fixed NOW. This is ridiculous that it hasn't been fixed yet. I've been on an FSC run got 2 radiant crystals used to get at least 20 -_-. If you want shinings farm levels that have them that's what I've done. If we can't get radiants this game is dead.

I have 1000 + Radiant and 33 Shining. ._. So I don't really care about the bug. But most people said are true that FSC should not drop shining!

...
This issue needs a bit of further research, but it's now clear that drop limits have been changed. Yesterday I got a bunch of glowing fire crystals (3*) on the 20th floor, in Treasure Vault.

this issue doesnt need research
this issue doesnt need research, it needs FIXED
i cant handle this crap, i have 2 radiant crystals 2!!!!!
if i wanted friggen shinings i wouldnt go to vanaduke, those crappy 4 star crystals arent worth the effort!

@Avixi
That's about enough to forge 3 5* items to heat lvl 10.
I hope 3 new CTR med weapons will be all you need in the next 2 years.

For those of you who think
For those of you who think you should use your 5* Radiants to craft down to the 4* Shinings, there is a bit of info you are missing:
The recipe to actually be ABLE to do that comes AFTER you are FULLY 5*. Now, if you are in lack of obtaining the 4* Shinings to level your gear to be ABLE to get to 5*, you cannot possibly use a recipe you don't have to turn the 5*s into 4*s. Hence the problem.

Hollows, that's not the point. what's the point of crafting if you can't have enough radiants to forge your weapon up to level 10? clearance? yeas, that's the only thing. cause if you don't heat up a 5* piece to level 6-7, a 4* does more damage. if you don't have enough radiants to go to that level, well, now you've got a problem.

You are experiencing a PICNIC ERROR!
5* Radients are probably more common in the final stratum of the NON-BOSS ARCADE. Someone needs to do research.
Yes, that's right, if you want your fancy level 10 5* items, you might have to...*gasp*...stop grinding Vanaduke!

New Strata incoming
I got half radiant and half shining after beating vana on D28. If you want your radiants, beat a danger room on depth 28.
I think the reason why we're only getting some radiant there is that there is going to be a tier 4 for the new boss hinted at (depth 30+).

@Petater
I'm inclined to agree.
However, I think it's weird to re-adjust the drops before introducing the new levels. Had they intro the new levels first and then announce the change in depths for drops, I don't think we'd be seeing as many posts on this matter.
Also, kinda weird that Danger Missions wouldn't give Radiants, unless they've been nerfed.

@Awoogawooga
Danger mission treasure room didn't end at depth 28, vana boss room did. It might have been a dev accidentally submitting files for the new tier with the latest patch. Word is they added new models to the game files too...

@Thunder-The-Bright: No, I
@Thunder-The-Bright: No, I completely understand that this thread is about there now suddenly being a lack of Radiants and an increase in Shinings. That wasn't MY point. My point was directed at everyone who says to "just craft your radiants into shinings" such as what Tduder said.
"Now" there's no need to do that if Shinings are in abundance. Just the logic beforehand of "craft the radiants into shinings if you can't find enough shinings" was very limited for the very reasons I mentioned in my previous comment.
I've noticed this too. Good time to grind FSC for them
