The Crystia Weapon set in PSO2: NGS can only be purchased with seasonal points during the Autumn seasonal event.
Phantasy Star Online 2: New Genesis (PSO2: NGS) is a thrilling video game that combines role-playing elements with strategic battles.
As its name suggests, it is part of the classic Phantasy Star Online series and therefore, you are likely to encounter similar gameplay throughout the series.
However, PSO2: NGS was released a decade after its predecessor and as such, you can enjoy upgraded graphics, content and mechanics.
When you first start playing PSO2: NGS, you will only have limited access to weapons and gear. However, as you progress in the storyline, you will unlock additional gear and weapons. One of the weapons sets you can acquire is Crystia.
Why are weapons important?
You will obtain varying types of weapon sets as you advance in PSO: NGS. But keep in mind that each set has unique abilities, as some can provide you with a buff, while others can increase your character’s statistics.
Some weapons are considered better than others, however this depends on their rarity, abilities and buffs they provide for your character.
The main purpose of weapons is to increase your character’s strength and to deal damage to enemies. You cannot clear content or advance in the game without the use of weapons and equipment.
PSO2 NGS: Crystia
During the Autumn seasonal event, players can enjoy PSO2: NGS in a new and arguably, thrilling way. Bear in mind that this event is only active for a month. During this time, you have to complete specific tasks and missions to earn various rewards.
You will also discover a new non-player character, Xiemie, who is the ARKS Technology Development Member. When you interact with her, you will be able to purchase an array of items in exchange for seasonal points.
Seasonal Points is a limited time currency, and it can be acquired by completing Ziandy’s Tasks and Event Limited Tasks. However, enemies with the Season Mark also have a chance of dropping Seasonal Points once defeated.
In the Exchange Shop in PSO2: NGS, you can purchase various items, one of which is the 7-star Crystia weapons set. There are different weapons to choose from in this set, including a sword, a wire, a spear, a saber and a launcher among others.
The Crystia weapon you purchase depends on the class you play. This is because each class specialises in a specific weapon.
In addition, each weapon has different augments slotted, which has the ability to improve your character’s statistics and abilities.
It is worth noting that the Crystia weapons cost approximately 10 000 seasonal points each. If you are interested in purchasing multiple Crystia weapons, you should ensure you have farmed enough seasonal points.
Once the event concludes, the seasonal points will no longer be available for collection. It is thus advised that you collect as many points as you can to purchase the weapons.
Which augments do the Crystia weapons have?
Each Crystia weapon is equipped with numerous augments. You can expect the following augments on your Crystia weapon:
- C/Sezun Automfevre: When fighting seasonal enemies, your potency is increased by 5 percent, your critical hit rate is increased by 20 percent and your damage resistance is increased by 25 percent.

Xiandy’s tasks
