crystals were used ALOT before the recipe revisions started and made everything super cheap on the shard end

clusters were what we assumed was gonna come later, there was a single recipe that used them(not counting alchemy that turned into crystals) before they came in


now, theres a handful of recipes that use crystals, and nothing uses clusters
