When my group had the crystals made we gave them one at a time to our artifcer. He started the crafting before we gave him the second. It's probably not worth the risk to try multiples in one inventory.

Yeah, it'll be a tough choice when it comes time. I know the for Raid Tier gear the only crystal that's better is the Black-red +41 End on the Rakata T3 Saber. No brainer which I'll use once I get that. For PvP it's get's a bit tricky, without being able to see the individual stats of the color crystal plus the fact that's its a Purple crystal ( I'm 99% sure Champion/Battlemaster both have Purple), I may be switching very soon to the PvP saber.

For 22,148 credts, yes.

Fantastic guide, just two points. 1) it's not completely confirmed that the Hoth/Belsavis bosses only drop those, it's just what we've seen so maybe change the wording to known drops include End or Crit. 2) Leth outpost is, to the best of my knowledge, an Imperial only outpost so possibly try and find the Republics closest. Still I've already bookmarked to send to guildies when they ask!

I would assume that both bosses drop all three variations (Crit, Power, Endurance) and it's just RNG that's made them drop different versions so far.

Anyone with the Frozen Water can pick the Crystal up after the Force Ghost is killed. But you must have the water to summon him.

CONFIRMED: Gargath, Hoth's world boss DOES drop the Magenta Schematic. At least the +33 Endurance version.

The Force Ghost/Crystal Node itself doesn't seem to have any spawn timer, the guild group I was with was able to down him twice within about 10 minutes

To get the crystal you MUST have the water with you, if you're in a group multiple people can retrieve the crystal. Any person with the water in their inventory can get the crystal once the boss is dead. I was just part of a guild group of at least eight people all of which received their crystal because we all had the water. Off to Annihilate the Belsavis boss!

<Unlimited Power> Empire on Jedi Covenant has retrieved the crystal.

I've had a guildie find some sort of water source as well as a purported empty water container on Tatooine. If the water was gather on Tat, then frozen somewhere else (Hoth perhaps) then brought to Ilum it would make for a great chain.

These Screens, while showing it can be done, are pretty useless as far as telling us HOW to do it.

From?

I like this, somehow adding crystals to it. The problem with this theory is the faction specific crystals, though I think it's possible to have them in inventory just not in a weapon. Perhaps a full range of color crystals or primary color crystals in your inventory.
