Well, PA went ahead with the changes, and among others, siege evasion is still among the removed crystals. Will be interesting to see the fallout over this in the siege scene.

Cant believe they really took out so many usefull crystals after all the feedback we profided that those crystals are actual in use, and therefore not useless and nothing but clutter.

Thanks to this I just got a nice jucy nerf of 21 evasion....some propably even more....I also lost my siege weapon crystals that were super usefull in the face of op FT and HW...thanks PA for always listening to your playerbase and knowing how and with what ppl actual play the game....unbelieveable...

If they play this game, what do they do for fun?  Endlessly grind in the newest places only?  Use cheat codes if they happen to need an extra leg up on something?

To play a game that offers only one mindless course towards improvement....... very sad.

I am human

What the heck they want to show with this left-hander revamp of the inv/central market/cooking and alchemy window order?

Useless changes worrying people!

I am very very NOT happy with today's removal of Blue grade crystals and the options to buy green grade ones to make into more Blue grade ones through Alchemy.  If anything, Alchemy needed MORE grades of crystals it could craft, not less.  And the most careless part of it all is that when you look at your Alchemy tool in your residence, all of the recipes are still in the List cluttering it up, but none of the prerequisite crystals exist in the game any longer.

This was an incredibly rushed choice by PA, and just throwing some practically-worthless Silver back in our faces is not acceptable "Compensation".

I'm on board with quite some unification changes, but the crystals certainly not. They still break at bosses, yet they removed the cheapest and easiest to replace crystals that I used for my boss alts.

Sure, the cheap red ones aren't too expensive either, but a lot of variery has gone down the drain and while these are only about 3-5 times more expensive than those old ones like Switfness, I do find I am more limited with what I can actually do now for these boss alts and such. I am also very disappointed with this change.
