*Crystal of Atlan* has officially launched as a free-to-play MMORPG, capturing the attention of players worldwide. Everyone is diving into the game, mastering class mechanics, and racing toward endgame content. While the game is free, it still encourages microtransactions—something many players are cautious about. If you're reading this, you're likely weighing your in-game purchase options. We get it—that's exactly why we’ve created this **complete guide on what to buy in *Crystal of Atlan***.
What Can You Buy in Crystal of Atlan
Here’s a breakdown of all the real-money purchases available in Crystal of Atlan:
- Vouchers: These can be used to purchase various packs or even exchanged for the Phantasium Pass. Vouchers are typically ideal when buying multiple items at once. Prices start from $0.99 up to $999.
- Opals: The main premium currency in the game, Opals are used for purchasing individual items and currencies. Many items available via Opals can also be obtained through Voucher packs. This is also the currency used for Gacha pulls. There's also a non-premium version called Prismadium, which you earn by playing. Opal bundles range from $0.99 to $999.
- Prismadium Pass: A non-recurring monthly subscription available in 15-day ($2.69) and 30-day ($4.69) options. You can also use Vouchers to redeem either pass while in-game.
What Not to Buy in Crystal of Atlan
Based on our experience, here are the in-game purchases that generally aren’t worth spending your money on:
- Batteries: Used to restore stamina, but they’re often dropped randomly in loot boxes. Buying them outright isn’t cost-effective.
- Revival Capsules: These are handed out frequently in the game. It's better to save them rather than spend premium currency. Dying and restarting missions is often preferable, especially since the game isn't overly punishing until endgame.
- Maltz’s Special Injection: Similar to Revival Capsules, these are regularly awarded in-game. Use them sparingly, saving them only for challenging boss fights.
- Rank A Outfits: While some Rank A outfits are cheap, they don’t offer significant stat boosts. Unless you love the look, skip them—S-rank outfits are superior and worth waiting for.
- Buying Opals for Gacha pulls: The game offers plenty of ways to earn Gacha pulls and Prismadium through regular play. No need to spend real money when you can accumulate enough just by playing.
Things Worth Buying in Crystal of Atlan
If you're serious about progressing efficiently and enjoying daily gameplay, consider investing in these:
- Prismadium Pass: Definitely one of the best value purchases if you plan to play regularly. Depending on your subscription length, you’ll receive either 150 or 300 Opals upfront. Additional benefits include:
- Daily chests and bonus Prismadium
- Increased daily energy cap
- Free Double Potions and Abyss Runs
- Faster skill acquisition and EXP gain
- Reduced Trading House fees and increased Gold gain
- More Trading House listing slots
This pass is only worth it if you play daily, though—the long-term benefits far outweigh the initial cost.
- Resource Packs: These usually provide more value than buying individual items. However, availability is limited—you can typically only buy each pack once. While not essential, they’re a solid choice if you were planning to spend a bit anyway.
- Premium Adventurer’s Manual: This is essentially the game’s Battle Pass system. Completing quests unlocks both free and premium rewards. Definitely recommended for active players. The standard manual is great for most users, while the Collector’s Edition is only worth it if you're after exclusive cosmetic items.
