I mean, I'm sure this is chump change because I only recently came back to SK about 2 months ago (after the change to forge for upgrading gear), and I have been spending Radiants at a pretty decent rate, but geez.

Sorry, but I don't get it. What is wrong/surprising about that image?

Yawn.

Stanley Kubrick directed a film named "The Shining" in which a character named Danny Torrance has this thing named "Shining" and the OP has lots of shinings and this is the way of OP saying "I have lots of shinings."

oh

I would have expected "Here's Johnny!" --- it's a more forceful cultural touchstone.

And, at the risk of deflating the original poster, 2,500 Shining Fire Crystals is not much.

But I'll stop being a scrooge now. Enjoy your surplus. :)

Like I mentioned in the OP, I

Like I mentioned in the OP, I realize full well that that amount wouldn't be much compared to people who have been playing since the Forge changes were rolled out - I took a break from SK for a long time. But after coming back, getting some friends into the game and getting them up to speed (around 2 months ago), the *perception* of the ratio of Radiant to Shining crystals is kinda staggering, even if at a deeper level it makes sense that someone who has a lot more 5* gear than 4* gear is perpetually going to be out of Radiants.

It was just a silly joke :P

Shinings are valuable and

Shinings are valuable and necessary to farm when you're working up to 5* the first time, but once you move on to Radiants as your main bottleneck, the Shinings pile up real fast.

2,623?

That's cute.

This is also coming from someone who doesn't consider themselves a FSC farmer.

Sad thing is we'll never use these. :(
