ON-icon-Transmute Crystal.png Transmute Crystals (sometimes referred to as Transmutation Crystals) are a type of currency used at Transmute Stations. 50 Transmute Crystals are used to change the traits of armor and weapons to a trait previously researched for that item. They may also be used to reconstruct a previously collected Item Set piece, with the cost being progressively reduced by the number of other pieces of that set you have collected. Only 500 Transmute Crystals can be held at once per account (1,000 with ESO Plus), and they are bound to the account. If you acquire any crystals beyond the maximum, they will be wasted, so you should try and find a use for them if you have them.

Transmute Stations can be found in Clockwork City or purchased for your home through completion of Master Writs. A Transmute Station placed in a home may be used by other players who have been granted access.

Notes[edit]

  • Transmute crystals can be used to convert common dropped and crafted gear to a rare trait such as Nirnhoned or Swift, and subsequently deconstruct them for a chance to obtain Nirncrux or pulverized Gilding Wax, making this an alternative method for collecting rare or expensive trait materials if you have a surplus of transmute crystals.
