Better be able to convert conudrum KI's to crystal petrifacts because I just wasted 200+ petrifacts by converting them or throwing them away.

Now to wait and see the kind of horrible trade procedure they will come up with, such as having to head to a specific zone that can't be directly reached through teles, maws or books, to meet a new NPC that will only accept stacks of petrifacts and won't consider those that have been automatically been accumulated at the Moogle in WOE.

The exchange rate will be around 100 cruor or so for each Crystal Petrifact traded. The plan is make the method of exchanging simple by using Voidwatch Officers, Planar Rifts, and such, and we will also make it possible to exchange multiple stacks at one time. | |

So 9,900 cruor for a stack of 99? Wtf kind of useless crap is that when you make more cruor PER VNM kill? It should have been 500+. You would be better off same account muling them in the chance you spam PW in the future :\

| | Regarding Crystal Petrifacts
Thank you for all of your opinions on crystal petrifacts.
After looking at all of the feedback, we've decided to hold off on any adjustments for crystal petrifacts for the time being.
Kupofried's Corundum/Crystal Petrifact have original purposes related to Provenance; however, in the future we plan to think about the applications for a little longer and involve it in the plan for overall adjustments to Voidwatch.
Since people may decide to perform the exchange in a hurry, it would be a waste of we added a new element to the system in the future. Since we are getting so many ideas at this point, we want to spend more time thinking about it before introducing any exchange system.
Therefore, we will leave the current situation as is for a while so that you can continue to save them if you desire.

so we have to keep saving them, and lose even more inventory space, hoping for an exchange system that may happen god knows when or never happen at all... great

| | Greetings everyone!
After looking over all of the feedback in regards to the planned adjustments for Crystal Petrifacts, the development team has decided to hold off on them at this time.
While there are a variety of thoughts for new ways of using Kupofried’s Medallion/Crystal Petrifacts that tie back to the original application in Provenance for the future, this is something that is closely related to plans for adjustments to Voidwatch as a whole, so we will be thinking about the uses keeping the long term in mind.
If we were to quickly add methods to exchange this item right now, it would become a waste when we implement new elements and content in the future, so we would like to spend some time looking into all the ideas we have received and not rush into anything.
With that said, it might be cumbersome to carry all those Crystal Petrifacts, but we would like you hang on to them a bit longer while we flesh out the plan. Of course, feel free to exchange them for Kupofried’s Medallion though! | |

Before I quit it got to the point where i just dropped them. I had like 3 or 4 stacks and I was like thats enough, whatever they are, 50 is enough. Right after I left I think they made them stackable to 99, of course.

My translation. Don't go trading in your crystal petrifacts until there's an official translation; I don't want to be blamed!

Yes. After all of the feedback from people who had already traded for Kupofried's Corundum, we are now thinking about making this adjustment to give some sort of benefit to excess Kupofried's Corundum. Therefore, it does not matter if you make the conversion like it did before.

| | Voidwatch: Crystal Petrifact
Some of you might be finding Crystal Petrifacts on your adventures. As stated in the version update notes, this item will be required for the final chapter of Voidwatch, but currently cannot be used.
This item will be the equivalent of Voiddust once the final chapter is implemented. By exchanging a certain amount of Cystal Petrifact, you will be able to obtain trigger items to challenge the monsters of the final chapter.
That said, while it may just be taking up space in your inventory right now, you might want to hold on to them for future use. Unlike Voiddust, Crystal Petrifact can only be obtained under certain circumstances and is not designed to be sellable.
Hope you are all looking forward to the final chapter of Voidwatch! | |

| | Just a small bit of information...
We will be increasing the stack size for Crystal Petrifact from 12 to 99 in the next version update. | |

Sorry to necrobump this thread (as I am often wont to do…), but I have some information to pass on regarding Crystal Petrifacts.
We are currently making preparations for the implementation of a system that will allow Crystal Petrifacts to be exchanged for cruor.
While Crystal Petrifact is an item that was meant to help players when their stock of Kupofried’s corundum was in short supply, in the event that you do not need this, we felt it would be beneficial to exchange Crystal Petrifacts for cruor, which in turn could be used for Atmacites, Periapts, or other applications. However, since the original purpose of Crystal Petrifacts was not to generate cruor, the exchange rate will not be very high.
Also, there were a lot of requests to make it possible to exchange these items for Voidstones, but doing this would create the cycle of doing Voidwatch in order to save up points to do Voidwatch, so we would like to hold off on this type of exchange. | |
