what do these crystal things do? I got like a ruby crystal, a diamond crystal ect. What are they used for?
-
they are used to purchase weapons. The weapons cannot be used though they are for show only since fighting is not implemented yet.
Go to this link to buy weapons. :)

When the next version comes out and we migrate a character, do the weapons go with...and are they usable from then on? prolly a dumb question, but....Also in the user guide there is no mention of crystals that I could find, so does that mean they are switching totally to coin? if so will the crystals get converted durring migration?

Crystal migration is something that has not been officially decided upon as of yet. We\'ve had so much trouble with selfish cheaters and people hacking the server that the devs are very dubious of allowing anybody to transfer their crystals anymore.
That said, the code for the crystal transfer webpage was created some time ago, and still exists. It all comes down to whether the devs deem it fair anymore to allow it to be used.
As for weapons, they will not be transferrable in any case. You can sell your weapons back to the webmerchant using the same page that you bought them from, and get 100% of your crystals back.

I really hope we keep our crystals because I have spent quite some time looking around for them and I have a lot. I wouldnt like to see them just dissapear. Of course, the advantage of this is since i am behind in riches and weapons to other people, I would be even with them when the beta ends and we all lose everything, if that may be the case. As for now im not gonna buy any weps, thx for the tip Moogie.
