Crystal Preset
We've revamped the system of transfusing crystals. Crystals are no longer transfused onto gear but through a designated UI. Although it may take some time to get adjusted to, the system was implemented with convenience in mind, so we kindly ask for your patience. And although the overall UI design has changed, the system itself is not much different from the previous system. 12 basic slots are provided for Adventurers to freely transfuse the crystal of their choice. Lastly, two extra slots that are unlocked upon equipping items upgraded by the Heart of Karanda and Garmoth's Heart and one extra slot from socketing your outfit will be available as usual.
- Added a crystal preset system that allows you to activate crystal effects through a separate UI instead of transfusing them individually onto gear.

With the changes to transfusing crystals, we've removed the restrictions that once applied to each gear slot. You can now transfuse crystals into any empty slot you prefer, so setting them up has become more efficient than before.
However, some restrictions have been applied when considering balance. No more than two (four for Combined Magic) crystals of the same group can be equipped. Crystals that share similar stats have been grouped together and are set with a maximum number that can be transfused. Details on the restriction are as follows.
- With the aforementioned changes to transfusing crystals, a max limit has been set for certain crystal groups.
Lastly, a designated crystal inventory and crystal presets have been added. To transfuse crystals, you must add all owned crystals into the crystal inventory. The maximum number of crystals that can be stored is 50. However, in order to remove crystals intact into your regular inventory, a Crystal Extraction Tool is required.
Crystals in the crystal inventory can now be set however you like through presets. The crystal inventory and crystal presets are applied to the entire Family so all characters can utilize the function freely.
