I have been all around Yrk and am having trouble finding any amber that is high in elemental damage type, I know Beng 60% at choice but is there any higher for elemental?
Thanks in advance for any help.....

For high elemental damage and cast speed, you want capyrni and yubo eyes, not amber.

Thanks very much, i knew they were decently high but i cant get those in choice as far as i know which makes them not as good as even Excelent Beng amber that gives 72% on speed and damage correct or am i mistaken? My problem is good luck finding an excelent source of that and as for Ora eyes, i tried that one too and out of 12 ora i didn't even get one eye so I'm kinda at a loss as to what to use.

Excellent Beng is better in damage/second than fine yubo/cap, but only slightly. 2.95 vs 2.81 times the damage/second as casting without wand. And it has a higher sap/damage ratio (<- bad) than yubo. So, alltogether Excellent amber/fine yubo/cap are pretty much equal.
As for the original question: It doesn't exists. There is an amber which gives you an elemental casting speed boost, but it has an reduction of elemental damage which makes it actually worse than an amber which has average stats in both.
Mob & harvested mats were originally designed to work together - some stat boni are only present in mobmats, while others are only present in harvested one. But since getting mats from bossmobs is impractical and very limited in varity this aspect is basically broken.
If you want to get elemental foci better than excellent amber/fine yubo, cap you either have to get supreme amber or hunt named yubos or caprinys.
