You seem to have a lot of unused skill-points. I'm sure this is the case, but just to be certain are all your awakened skills learnt and to max level, as well as core passives/skills that are appropriate to your character/rotation. I'm sure you know this - being level 62 - but just want to be sure.

Mystic has a lot of frontal-cone attacks, so grinding can be a bit harder than some other classes in so much as position is a little more critical. Personally, I've basically been a mystic main since the class released, so can't attest which classes are better/worse, but mystic feels perfectly fine to me.

I see your pets are set to 'normal' behaviour, if you feel you're waiting around for them to pick up treasure, or they're missing so, set them to 'agile' (red). This may help a little. They are all tier 4 though so I doubt this is a problem for you.

It may just be simply that you're relying on skills that are on the lower end of the damage-spectrum, or your skill add-on effects aren't as great as they could be to help kill PvE enemies quicker. Both things are worth looking into a little. You don't have to copy-paste the 'meta' or anything, as there is a lot of variety and options many of which work very well, It's just worth learning the theory so to speak so you can be confident that what you work out for yourself is moving your character in the right direction.

Lastly, it may just be you. You simply mightn't be as good a grinder as some other players. We're all different with different strengths/weaknesses. Comparing ourselves to others, whilst useful at times, is almost always a recipe for disappointment. So I wouldn't try to worry about it too much.

There is a lot that could be possible answers to your question(s).
Questions:
01) Awakened, but what level? 56, 57, 58…..
02) What level is each of your weapons? PRI, DUO, TRI….
03) How many total skill points do you have? 300+, 500+, 1000+…..
04) Where are you grinding for your trash loot? Manes, Fadus Habitat, Blood Wolf Town, Desert Fogans….
05) Are you using pets? T1, T2, T3…..
06) Scrolls that improve drop rate.

01) Mystics shine best at 61+ level.
Monster Name Color:
a) White = Same level as you
b) Off White = +1 level above you
c) Pink = +2 levels above you
d) Soft Red = +3 levels above you
e) Red = +4 levels above you
f) Purple = +5 levels above you
Colors Yellows, Greens, No Color, they are below your level.
Monsters above your level require a higher Accuracy on your part in order to hit them. More misses = slower to kill. Which means less trash loot.
02) All three weapons at TET or higher kill monsters faster, so you get trash loot faster.
03) Mystics require a lot of skill points in order to shine at their best. The higher the skill, the more damage output, the quicker the kill, the more trash loot that can be picked up.
04) Trash loot drop rates are better or worse depending on where you grind.
Here is a good link to look at for this BDO Grinding Spots [grumpygreen.cricket]
05) Pets improve your trash loot gather rate. T3 pets and above pick up trash loot the fastest. But don’t discount your T1 and T2 pets, if that’s all you have. Better to be using pets than not at all.
06) A lot of players use Drop Rate improvement scrolls. I personally see little difference. Maybe it’s an RNG thing.

Good luck and happy hunting. 😊

Awakened mystic isn't one of the best PvE grinders from my memory. I used to be around the same AP before I rerolled off but I've heard succession is better for grinding. Maybe try it out a bit?

A good PvE grind spot for Awakened Mystics is Pila Ku Jail at your Character Level, AP, and DP.

So what do you need the silver for?
What's your goal that is driving you?
Curiosity is why I ask.

I think it's great you have. I'm in a somewhat similar situation: PvE-wise I have friends that grind far more efficiently than I do, and are generally clearly more skilled in battle. PvP-wise I was fighting a friend the other day who was lower level, and ~50 GS lower and they absolutely gave me a lesson every time.

So yes, I'm pretty average myself at various things. But that's okay, I just accept it and move on - I still enjoy the game, and that's most (all that's) important. I'm glad you are too.

Trash drops depends on zone, and using agris and loot scrolls. I'll get like 5-6k at stars end and up to 8-10k at trees(using agris and loot scrolls), but star's end is all about the disto drops so that's why the loot is worse there. Also places with higher loot weight means you'll have to drop it off at your horse or storage more often.
