What about pearls? He just said crystals. He didn't say pearls.
Meh same thing, when you tune a Pearl it asks you if you really want to tune this Crystal.

Quick follow-up to this:
- Applying an anti-decay kit to a lightsaber will prevent the crystals inside from decaying.
- You can remove the crystals.
- You can get an anti-decay kit back if you delete the lightsaber you applied it to.
does this mean that if we take out the crystals and put them into another saber, they are decayable again? eg. all the crystals you put in the undecayable saber wont decay, even though it wasn't the crystals that were in the saber when you applied the kit.. but they will decayas soon as they are put in another saber?
or is the crystals that are in the saber at the time the kit is applied that wont decay?

So would i be correct in assuming this statement? I have a 4th gen saber now. the crystals inside arent all perfect, but its a great saber for now. If i want to get a better crystal, all i have to do is Remove all crystals delete teh saber. This will give me my anti decay kit back. Then i can make a new saber put in my best crystals and repeat teh process? So basically we have an unlimited use anti decay kit? If so thats sweet. I hardly have an uber saber, but if i can get the kit back and do it again when i get a better crystal, that will be awesome.

am i the only jedi that thinks this is a bad idea (for the game) ?
So crystals never ever decay now..nice but ..bit crazy ?
No crazier than Legendary 1800 damage rifles or 600pwr fire pikes never decaying
Yes, its a huge difference... Why? Because those weapons are legendary, sabers are fairly ordinary.
This should only protect 1 crystal at a time, your favorite crystal/pearl could last forever but the rest would have decay. As it is now, 10% of the sabers will now never decay, just get more and more powerfull.
Don't know, I guess its cool, just not too cool.

It is bad for me because I chose something else for my reward because I was told it wouldn't work on lightsabers. Thanks devs.

they also said:
destroy the item you have insured after the patch did hit the live server and you will get the kit back. or was it destry now? look this up, but you can get the kit back!

This is completely unfair to the non-jedi population. You've basically just given jedi 4 anit-decay kits instead of one.
