You might need to trade in some crystals to get your "Rank bar" up.

I think the same.

Many times you'll need to donate crystals (or repeat some missions) to get enough Rank points to get the next mission, it happens a lot so get used to it.

You can buy the cheapest crystals/clusters at the AH and just trade them to the guard.

[Visper]

if he did the first 3 missions he most likely isnt or he's on the verge of rank 2 - you cant start trading crystals till after you are rank 2 minimum I believe.

[Raydeus]

But clearing the first 3 missions (Fetichism is 1-3) gives you Rank 2, so he should be able to trade crystals already... I hope, I haven't been Rank 2 in more than 2 years.


The first Rank 2 mission is to obtain the faded Crystal (The Crystal Line).


Edit > Unless you mean you can't donate Crystals until Rank 3 that is.

[Ameroth]

I've found that usually 7-9 crystals is plenty to get your rank up so you can accept another mission, but if you're worried, a full stack will definitely be enough.

the guards are lying
seriously.

i think it's a general sentance they say whenever you trade stuff to them because you can trade items to the guards at the outpost and they'll say the same thing only this time, mean it.

That only happens with the last donation when you cap Rank points, the crystal excess is converted to conquest points, but its a minimal amount of CP you get.

After that they tell you you don't need to donate anymore (and wont accept any more crystals until you Rank up again).
