I guess I missed the memo. Are we getting some sort of unified Vital and Life crystal that will replace the ones that are already in our crystal slots and can still be made using the forest crystals that we currently took time to get?
These crystals are getting unified, so there is only one type now:
This was just announced in today's glabs patch: https://www.global-lab.playblackdesert.com/News/Notice/Detail?boardNo=2174
Thanks!
They can still do that activity, though, right? There's definitely a demand for these crystals whether they're identified as a specific type or just a general life crystal. I don't plan on sniping soon so I just place POs for them.
Okay, I have 4 sets each consisting of 14 crystals: gathering exp, cooking exp, processing exp, and training exp.
Each crystal price is roughly 450M silver.
3 sets of my crystal sets become obsolete, I lose 3 * 14 * 450 = 18,9 BILLION silver. Instantly.
If they ever implement this "simplification" without any form of compensation, I swear I will take my time and manually delete every item on evey alt, then all characters, the I will close the account and will never ever touch anything korean in my life, ever.
Update: Ok I see, they "compensate", but at MIN price. I do not agree on this transaction. They will just take away my property I worked for MONTHS to collect. What is the point of owning things in this game if they can be taken away by "the government" at will?

They're not becoming obsolete though... Just unified... you'll still have the stats it just won't specifically say "gathering" or "processing" or whatever. Here's a compensation list - so you're not getting screwed over really.
The problem is that all crystals are inserted, and now 3 sets out of 4 will just sit there doing nothing, I will have to either pay loyalties to remove, or craft removal tool using very rare mats like magical shards afair...
Normal companies usually add some 'grace period' to rearrange things.
Still not sure why they buy out at min price.
I do not agree to sell my property at min price. It has value and the market must decide, not "the government".

If you already own them, they are just switching them with the simplified crystal... they aren't deleting them and then giving you silver.
Yes, ok, I have 4 sets inserted, 3 sets become obsolete and just take space, what I do?
Its wasted 19 BILLION silver now.
This is robbery.
