Crystal Properties in Jewelry/Gemstones (Sims 4 Crystal Creations)

Introduction:

If you have Crystal Creations, crystals have special properties when they are made into jewelry or cut gemstones and then charged on the ‘Mystical Moonlight Crystal Grid’ in the moonlight between 7 pm and 7 am, which is a live draggable object. Note that crystals charge fastest on a full moon and slowest on a new moon.

Note the ‘Mystical Moonlight Crystal Grid’ can be found under Activities & Skills, Outdoor Activities.

Crafting Jewelry & Cutting Gemstones:

Sims gain the gemology skill when crafting jewelry and cutting gemstones. They can also gain it when they dig up crystals and metals, so a good way to start is to go exploring!

Use ‘The All-in-One Gemology Table By Humphrey Inc.’ to make your jewelry and gemstones.

It can be found under under Activities & Skills, Creative, however note that the game considers this to be a ‘mental skill’, so I like to put a charged cut sapphire gemstone by the table to reduce the chances of them getting mental burnout & to keep them focuses, which is required for one part of the Crystal Crafter aspiration.
