Code Delvers, can I get an assist?
What determines the likelyhood / trigger for a Mystic Shard?  I'm not seeing anything in the notes or tooltips, and it may affect how I run my Horde delves in the early phase.  (Is it a per-mob chance?  Should I stay in a one-hit-kill zone, with taunt mode on, to max out the shard income rate? Or does the current or max zone affect the income rate?)

(+1)

1 / 10000 chance each second base 

(About 2 hours and 47 minutes average time to get one)

Can only gain if not at shard cap

You don't lose them if your cap lowers

Killing enemies doesn't affect the drop chance at all, it's just random chance. Do whatever and it'll stay the same.

Thank you!

I had picked up on the shards sticking around after equipment changes - it's the reason I have the first ten pieces of equipment at/ approaching level six, even though I don't typically use half of them once I'm anywhere near my zone cap/ in the struggle.

I'm getting them faster than that, although I'm not sure what is boosting the speed. I guess it doesn't really matter since whatever it is I'm unlikely to be able to micro manage it.
