Guild Wars 2

If you don’t know, Arcane Crystals are sPvP items.

I don’t understand why Feast requires Arcane Crystals. It doesn’t make sense in lore or in mechanics. sPvP cannot use consumable while PvE people can.

You can view the recipe here:

Consumables in pvp would make them completely mandatory to be competitive, spvp is supposed to be something you can just jump into without needing to farm.

Also any food that gives you 100 power is not mundane food. Obviously the crystals are broken down into a salt (normal salt is sodium chloride, a crystal)

or someone just put the wrong item on the wiki since the Arcane Crystal and regular Crystal has the same icon.
