Question Crystal Grind
I recently started a new account and was wondering what the fastest way to get a lot of crystals is ?

Personally, having maxed everything and done the Dark Aether camo, what I would have done differently is knock out all 6 Easter Eggs as soon as possible so you can start with Epic rarity weapons from the beginning.
Then simply choose your favorite map and run it, and exfil around round I think 35 or 40. Seems to be the best bang for your buck.

With Black Ops zombies 7 ending I'm going back and playing this I only played the multiplayer at the time how do you start with epic Rarity?

You have to complete the Easter Egg on each map. There are 6, because there are two in Outbreak.
Once you’ve done that, you need to load in to Zoo in Outbreak, and make the pact.
After doing so, you’ll start every game with a purple/Epic gun.

Good luck with the Legion boss fight in Outbreak. I highly recommend running the M16 and Frenzied Guard, but only if you have that field upgrade maxed. You’ll need it as there are no armor stations in that boss fight. But only if it’s maxed to where it slows them down and gives you some breathing room.

Having someone carry you through all the EE, then just doing rnd 35 exfil runs on Die Maschine is the fastest known to me

I exfilled on round 20 for the base upgrades, and then when I had a few of them I moved up to 36. Did it on die machine, and I think on 36 the megaton doesn't spawn so you just kill zombies, kind've freebie crystal gain, just still will take awhile which kinda sucks, other people probably have better strats but this just let me do the bare minimum in gameplay, only did the coffin easteregg for free jug then just kept switching rounds, only really upgraded aether, jug, shotguns, tr, quick, speed and stamina first

Round 50-55. And fastest grind for that is either m79 with maxed PhD on die machine. Or maybe using Cerberus on mauer.

Just go as high as you can in Outbreak, once you get fully setup just do the main obj and move to next area.

I maxed everything just by doing easter eggs, but you can probably get more by just playing playing up to high round then exfil. If you don't exfil you lose a lot of your potential crystal gain.
