Runestones to Shards

Quick question:

I believe it was @Kabam Crashed who told us that the X-Magica Runestones could be traded in for Crytal Shards at some point.

Will we learn about the conversion rates before the Runestones in the Trader‘s Outpost disappear? That knowledge would help decide whether to buy them there or not.

I‘m not gonna get 7* NC because I never reach GC in BG, so I would skip on buying the Stones from the Trader‘s outpost, unless they will give a nice amount of shards…

Thanks!

    I don't care for Nightcrawler tbh, I've been trading in for 5* versions as a iso source

    Wonder too what it'll be able to be traded too

    So is the only way to get 7* NC by purchasing daily deals?

    @Kabam Crashed
    What is the plan for 7* Nightcrawler : joining the basic pool after a while? Collector champion (won’t reappear)? Reward in another event?

    In other words, is there any interest to keep the Nightcrawler runestones?

    You can get 120 runestone by playing, if you miss any you will have to buy them

    120*150 is 18000. And atleast 70% of basic pool champs are better than buffed NC. We can also get 3k shards extra by going to basic crystal.

    He gonna end up like civil warrior from cap comissionary event.

    They may make an event with special objective to use 7* NC.

    I think the cap on the runestones resets every month. So you can buy 10 a month over 3 months = 30

    Event is a 3-month period, so they'll reset in April and May in the trader outpost

    Did Kabam mention cost of the runestones? I was busy with travels this month, so I’m behind in bg. I’m not sure if I want to push in the next half day.

    They’re in the daily offers. $5 for 2 if you’re valiant. Not sure about paragon if they get 2 or 1.

    So at least $25 if you need to catch up by missing GC.

    Thank you for the reply. I’m a F2P player, so I was asking about buying them with units.

    You cannot buy them for units.
  • Jazz_MessengerJazz_Messenger Member Posts: 172 ★
    Yeah, I know. I was just wondering if there were any announced plans for unit purchases, like right before or after the saga ends. It seems something they would do so that players can make up the difference.

    Or, I’ll just wait for NC to be added in the 7* basic pool. It’s not like I have to have him right away.

    The conversion will be 150 7* Shards per Runestone. It won't be available until the end of the Saga.

    Dude that’s insane that’s WAY more valuable to me than 7-star Nightcrawler
    But what happens when you use the 18k to get vtd? Lol

    They do have a way to make up the difference. Its buying the daily special.

    Guys, bringing this post back to ask if we will ever get more X-Magica Runestones for units or through events .
    Got 103 runestones , because i couldn't ,at that time, reach the GC every season , and i hit a dead end at my incursion runs, so i just quit .
    Hope to see official response to this ..

    Could have just made a new thread, but regardless i’ll answer myself.

    The answer is no, kabam mike said on the stream before sagas were implemented that once the saga ends those runes etc will never come back.

    Night crawler, who was what those stones were used for, isn’t even in the tab store anymore. The stones could be traded in for shards but that has ended as well which i doubt they would bring back as well.

    Worthless because you also missed (or skipped?) the 1-month period to trade the runestones for 7* shards.
    That period started at the end of the first saga, and was announced several weeks before.
