Does that actually work?  Is there a message that pops up if a crystal has been saved due to death resistence?  Because I see it for the exp, but never have I seen it for crystals.

There is no message that I know of (there might be, but most of the time i'm scrabbling too hard to get back up to pay attention ).

My only assurance about it working, is the fact without certain pets out and my outfit on, crystal breakage happens much more frequently. That I tested.

I apologize in advance for this constructive piece of input in this QQ topic, but is the OP even aware that when you have trade items in your bag those are destroyed in priority, which is a rather reasonably reliable way of protecting your cristals.

Yes, it actually works (at least the outfit version), and there is an messeage in that case.

Assumign competent devs, the pets (and everything else that give that bonus) calls for the same function.

I wonder how many years it takes for some of these people to realize how stupid they look, constantly brown nosing on the forums, thinking they are going to get rewarded for that somehow.  At the end of the day, you're still a clown, making yourself look dumb on the internet...hurting yourself by making nonsensical arguments about any and everything that could actually improve the game you are also playing. 

No, Kratuga is not open "bar"...whatever that means...as it is in fact still requring one of the key type items to gain entry.  The black spirit claw piece is literally a 0.025 max drop rate chance...off of mobs that literally no one grinds anymore. 

It's an open bar in that a level60 sage can get in withouy the key.  Tag an alt to your main if the sage is not your main.

Of course it's open bar (freely accessible) but some "people" can't be bothered with facts since they're so busy pushing their hate religion.

If those "people" actually played the game instead of hating on those who actually do, there would be less misinformation.
