So I'm level 49, and I still have piles of every erg crystal and every remnant in my inventory. It seems like every time I sell things, 2 seconds later I need them for something. I'm just wondering if there's any future need for them (besides the life ergs, because I need them for hp pots), because they're taking up two whole rows that I could use for something else.

because there is an evie in your avatar im gonna assume yu play an evie

ice spirit remnant is used in frostpeak boots

it is also used in the quest " a magician's secret"

spirit remnant is used in the ghost witch set. all 3 of the items for the set require spirit remnants.

eternity erg crystals are used for crafting part rev feathers

other than those, i really dont recall any needs for the remnant or erg crystals

rule of thumb, if it has a dungeon name in the erg then it is not worth keeping
e.g. hoarfrost hollow

For Magician's Secret you need Spirit and Terra Spirit remnants as well.

The Yeti Leather belt actually uses Hoarfrost Hollow ergs, but seeing as that's the only thing I'd need any of the dungeon-named ones, that is a good rule.

princesss, your post made me look at A Magician's Secret on VindictusDB, then I realized I could go to each erg's/remnant's page and see what quest(s) and/or recipe(s) they're used in. So thanks for making me realize I could do that. XD Turns out of 12 different things, I only need to keep 5.

Never really thought about it that way, although it is mostly true.
