Patch 2.2a was deployed today, during scheduled maintenance. Below are the patch notes:
Items and Economy
- The Advanced Black-Yellow Fortitude Crystal and SE Black-Green Color Crystal no longer have a vendor value.
- Encrypted Datacubes will no longer provide a Credit Boom reward option.
- The Major Experience Boost reward option from Encrypted Datacubes is now the Bind on Pickup version.
Apparently there was a credit exploit going on were people were vendor selling the Pre-Order and Razor crystals for credits, then claiming it back via Collections system. Hotfixed today.
