Since the devs refuse to add this, then again.
At least make crystal restorations more frequent. Even once a month will do. And make it a permanent feature in the game, to restore it at an NPC and take up the restoration attempt. (Instead of reaching out to support and waiting a day for the restoration)
Two restorations per YEAR is mad.

Tired of never getting to use powerful crystals against powerful endgame content.
Using a cheap crystal set doesn't let you grind any of those areas efficiently either and the income or drops will never be close to worth the risk of setting yourself back hours upon upons of income for a death.
...
Exactly my feeling. Even though I am only a mid level PVE player. The rewards of content, at my limit of play, do not balance out the losses I take.

Why even bother making endgame content that nobody will bother with because the risk makes it not even worth attempting unless you are hardcap and have nothing else to do.
Agreed. However, it is worth noting that Korea does not experience the same lag spikes, desyncs, and disconnects that are commonly encountered by the majority of the world.
The reason for this is that in the early 2000s, when Korea was still grossly behind the rest of the first world in terms of infrastructure, they took the initiative to build their internet system, starting with DSL. Additionally, they could embrace Fiber/T1 lines at an early stage. I can personally attest to this, as I was stationed there when the initial installation occurred. Around 2002, I could effortlessly download a 1.8-gigabyte movie in approximately two minutes. Although this may not sound particularly impressive by today's standards, it is important to remember that during that time, most individuals were still gaming on 56kbps modems or, at best, 128kbps double ISDN connections. Looking at a 1080p screenshot would take several seconds. Therefore, while we struggled to get our providers to upgrade their infrastructure to modern standards, Korea leaped into the Internet age on a completely new infrastructure. As of 2017, they have the fastest average internet speed in the world.
They do not understand, and they will not care until they themselves are forced to experience desync, lag, and disconnects over an extended amount of time while they try and PVE. Hopefully, they experience this sooner rather than later.
Maybe then they will realize that making content that requires billions of silver in crystals that will break the moment the player experiences any desync, lag, or disconnects is not a good player experience for 99% of their player base.

Honestly, I had an idea a few years ago that we could get some treasure items that will protect somehow our crystals for example for 1-3 hours with daily CD.

Suggestions/Comments:
Kindly consider making the "Protect Your Crystals" Event a permeant addition. The sad truth of this game is it is as yet tormented with Desync's, Disconnects, and troublemaker's griefing players into mobs. All of which frequently brings about you biting the dust to hordes and having a/some crystal(s) break. Now that crystals are hitting 4bil+ per gem, your relaxed players as a whole/new players won't investigate this superb game and test out new zones until they seriously out gear them and trivialize the areas they explore. This is terrible for this game.
This Event has permitted me to attempt 3 new regions, 1 of which beat my behind and 2 being farmable after learning the mechanics. I'm truly having a blast out of having the option to simply investigate the game once more, trying out new areas to see if I can kill the mobs while adventuring.
Alternatively you could attach crystal protection to your Value Pack, which would urge individuals to buy it consistently for this insurance alone. Or, assuming none of the other options appears to be satisfactory, perhaps sell a crystal protection thing you purchase from blacksmiths that will break rather than your gem on the off chance that you kick the bucket. This game can possibly be the best MMO made, however mechanics, for example, crystals breaking on death, among others, keeps it from reaching it's full potential.
Edit: Ghoulz recommends: One way to solve most problems is if they just add an immunity grace period when loading into the game. Since the game is so eager to toss you into a loading screen.

I strongly support this topic - fear of crystal breakage is the thing that takes away a lot of fun from PVE.
How about adding durability to each crystal - instead of breaking it would loose 1/10 of its durability and it will be unusable after durability reach 0%. Next you can "repair" it (with same crystal restoring 100% of its durability and makeing it useable again).
It would be also great oportunity to revive some useless materials makeing them useable for crystar repairing (ofcourse same crystal will be much more efficient).

I've had this thought about crystal breaks ever since i can remember, i agree with post above completely however my own reason was a bit more simple & biased due to the fact that i hate PVP my reason for this was either make PVP break crystals as well or treat PVE the same way as PVP & make crystals unbreakable in it... double standard is as BS as it gets in a situation like this -.- my own baised reason towards this actually ties in quite directly with the main reason from this post due to PKers who grief ppl in pve into hoards of mobs to kill them by mobs & break their crystals....

At the very least, give me an item, which i refuel with heated BMCs, that will prevent crystal destruction as long as its fueled.
1 - this improves BMC demand (and everyone loves BMC demand)
2 - this continues the idea of death having a cost
3 - this prevents the risk of losing actually good crystals that are a huge pain to recover

I have been unable to utilize any crystals for the past few days owing to a significant problem occurring somewhere in the connection between my internet service provider and the BDO servers. My internet connection has been stable for everything except this particular game. It would be greatly appreciated if the crystals could be made permanent, allowing me to continue playing the game even during such circumstances.
