Am I doing something wrong, or is this really how long it's going to take? | You were just unlucky. From level 0 to 50, you will average around 0.6~0.8 skill ups per dozen attempts. If you want to push for higher skill up rates, try to do your skill up sessions during...
1. New Moon
2. A day of the week where your crystal is week to the element of the day
3. or Darksday
On a rare occasion, I've gotten as much as 1.3 skill levels on a dozen attempts. But those get balanced by the bad runs, like the one you had.  Lyonheart
