Are there schematics for Purple Color crystals? I thought after 1.2 dropped, that crystal vendor was going to be removed and artifice were going to get new schematics for other colors. Are there? Where Might I get them?

There's Magenta schematics you can get. I can't remember what Crew Skill gives them though...you can always check the GTN. There's also some new ones you can get for daily coms, 20 each.
