I’m not really sure what’s going on with this but when I attempted to create a charged quartz crystal from a place of power, I wasn’t given the option to commune and the 25 quartz crystals I had in my inventory were destroyed. I double and triple checked to make sure they weren’t deposited in my bank. They simply vanished.
I used 8 crystals I had mined from my personal quartz node in my home instance about 5 minutes before attempting to commune and 17 that I had mined from the previous 2 living story updates. I have no idea if that’s significant or not. The quartz crystals were stackable and didn’t appear to be different than any other quartz crystal.
However, when I brought another 25 crystals to the exact same place of power (Earthen Magic in Queensdale, directly south of Shaemoor Garrison), I was able to commune with it without trouble.
I’m uncertain how to reproduce this issue. All I did was mine quartz as I have been for the past 2-3 weeks and tried to fuse it at a place of power. I’ll attempt to recreate this bug again tomorrow once I’m able to create another charged quartz crystal.
