My question is what are you doing that gets you to need 3 or more crystal restore per week... I grind high level end game zones  daily and that has yet to happen to me. Mind you I HAVE used my 3 restores already this year but two of those were absolutely stupid mistakes (basically both times I afked for a minute in a spot I thought was safe) and so I deserved those breaks. Remove these and I'd still be at one legit crystal break.

A compromise to me would be something like a single loyalty shop restore (so meaning it gives you one restore, not three) that would cost idk, maybe 4000-5000 loyalties (you get 6000 loyalties a month ftr). That seems reasonable. That would leave the pearl ones for the people who for some reason constantly break crystals.                                                                                

Besides, ok, if you break a girin's tear, that sucks, but nowadays breaking a crystal worth even 1b, how long does it take to get that 1b back? it's a one to two hours grind to regain. It's not a huge deal unless you break crystals daily in which case maybe you need to learn to play and iIsay this as a pretty damn mediocre BDO player.  But if you break one crystal a month, even a 1b cystal isn't hurting your finances in any sort of significant way. Three years ago, sure. But not today where it's super easy to make 1b an hour. Even in fairly low level zones you can do that in 2.

For the record, I've only EVER bartered on Bal1, Bal2, Cal4, and the old Cal6.

I wrote that it's about trying out new spots. And I've already died stupidly because I rode afk to Oluns. Through the path is simply the Dekhia spot. Idk I just think it's stupid that you only have 3 a year. If my Girin breaks I'm just turbo mad. You mean other crystals cost 1b. Of course I can grind it again in an hour. But that's an hour of my life that I'll never get back. I don't play a game to make negative progress while grinding. Someone else has a post that you shouldn't lose crystals at all with over 800 upvotes. The majority of players don't want to lose crystals. This is not about me playing badly etc. I would also like to play other classes. But the crystal thing annoys me. I also don't want to spend hours practicing before I go to a high end spot. I think learning by doing is much better. And you're already punished when you die, you lose all your buffs and make less trash because you have to rebuff etc. You are not efficent then..  that's enough.

lets meet PA half way, only bought recovers restore after maint. Else PA has no reason to budge.

Haha, lag spike. Haha, I could move again only after 10 seconds of terror and then died.

Haha, next time I will have to quit the game, pay 24E, or drop the crystal I worked for.

Haha, the support will not help me with this and they will direct me to crystal restore.

What immense fun this brings to the game, I cannot stop laughing! Haha. Haha. Haha.

Seriously, I go play something else now. Bye for some time at least.
