From where?

I got one too...dropped by a behest (R30 Nophica) mob.

I wonder what it is for >.> or will be for <.<

Deaspected Crystal were in the rank 33 story quest that sends you to Mor Dhona FWIW, something to do with Garlemald extracting the ether from crystals ?

I thought Mor Dhona's vampire dirt sucked the 'ether' from the crystals.

The r33 story quest crystal is something you get from the quest itself, not from mobs, right? I mean, this isn't the same case?

Interesting. It's probably something they ninja implemented to give another sign that the Umbral Era is very very close. Those sneaky devs. I wonder what other things they've added that we don't know of yet.

If they add things without telling us, I like it. And all comments so far tell me many of us feel this way. I'm excited!

The quest one is because there's something underground in Mor Dhona draining the energy of everything that stays there. What the quest does is ask you to put a few wind crystals on the ground till they're drained. They never said this was the 'only' way to get a deaspected crystal, so I'm guessing they're going to provide an explaination as to what is happening for those crystals, and probably it's not the exact same thing that happens in Mor Dhona

Not getting this chat from Totonawa. Did you get it after you accepted a quest? Need info so I can try and verify.

Maybe its a blabber stone

Oh Umbral Era. Maybe that is why the moon looks like it does right now.

Dont write in yellow! that hurts my eyes ; ;. The Deaspected crystal that drops isnt the same from the quest, because it is an inventory item and not a quest item this time.

Posted in yellow because it's a spoiler, just to be safe. Sorry >>

I got a Deaspected Crystal from a Grade 1 mineral deposit earlier this morning. That said, I haven't seen another one after quite a few more deposits, so it's certainly not a common thing to find while mining.

Maybe...it's something that will eventually be used for the Materia system...but probably not.

Do you not think this has something to do with Blue Fog? I mean what are those factories doing up there that is creating the blue fog? That area is quite close to Mor Dhona too. Maybe the Garleans are draining energy from something.

I bet they drop from literally everything and anything you kill or farm in the game right now, just really rare. I bet they're intending for people to get their hands on these over the next week. The pre-war event is coming!!!

Gotten 7 of them from my latest fishing run while I was gathering, people also get them from killing. it seems there is a chance whenever we get shards/crystals to get a deaspected crystal, also woodwailers at camps in gridania are mentioning they have seen the mysterious figure spout doom and gloom like in the article.

Honestly this is rather exciting, if the game engine is built to impliment world events like this, I could definately see some pretty interesting world events happening as a pre expansion thing in the future, making it a semi living world I guess in a sense.

Those machines look just like the Garlean flying machines when you get close to them.

I somewhat think this is related to Hatching-Tide as the deaspected crystals are appearing in all three regions.

Jajajbygo: Had word of a shady bloke seen wanderin' about. Best keep an eye out, eh?

Pepeli: There was a strange fellow here not long ago, preaching to any who would listen. Dark words, about the coming of the seventh Umbral Era...

(From Gridanian Wood Wailers. I think this all has to do with the bit posted on the lodestone.)
