I'm hoping they add a larger amount to completing HM versions and trials etc.
Wouldn't it be a good troll if say training is 10 stones whereas infused and precise are 100 stones

Yes hopefully plus in patch notes they mentioned in random vets, if it throws you in dlc dungeons would be even longer

In patch notes they do not say 1 per dungeon...
Transmutation requires Transmute Crystals, precious resources occasionally received for successfully completing Veteran PvE activities such as Pledges, Trials, and Arenas, and several PvP sources such as Rewards for the Worthy, Battleground end of match rewards, and AvA end of campaign rewards. Transmute Crystals are an account wide, capped currency which cannot be banked or traded.
Check the patch notes again...

They mentioned the drop rate is supposed to be guaranteed rather than occasionally

No they said they were gonna patch it for PTS...but that statement that I posted is from the general overview of transmutation in the patch notes...

We'll be increasing this to always award a Transmutation Geode from a Veteran Random Dungeon in a future PTS patch."
3 pledges in pugs takes a minimum of 1 hour not everyone can play hours everyday.
It doesn't mention vet pledges but random dungeons in group finder.

I assume a crystal is a synonym for a geode and one is not a fragment of the other ;
I also assume that's how they intend things to go live later.

What are you not understanding?
Method 1: Do vet content and "occasionally" get a geode that has X amount of crystals (this variance in particular we don't yet know and I would very much like to).
Method 2: Do a random daily and you're guaranteed a geode. This method may be spammable unless it's tied to the one off daily bonus.
PTS patches are the same as what we get when things go live so I don't understand this whole "that's just PTS" thing. There's no difference except for sample itemization and character templates.

A geode contains and unspecified number of crystals. We don't know the range yet. Probably 1-5 or something.

Look... what you aren't catching is that the original is being supplanted by the second.
Yes, they STARTED OUT saying it would occasionally drop, and then they said they will INCREASE that into a guaranteed drop.
Your pit bull grip on the second statement being a pts patch doesn't matter because the original statement that you keep pointing to is also a pts patch.
Many of the decrees of the past have been scrapped recently. Wasn't it wrobel that said alliance points will always stay on the character that earned them? And now we can consolidate them across the account. Once upon a time getting a monster helm was a chance drop on vet. Now it's a guarantee. Multiple things have been done to ease the grind - it's a recurring trend. Are you so unable to imagine they would ease off of the mindless soul crushing grind for these stones too?
Yea, went on the test realm to have a look, way way easier to grind any but the more rare item with traits you desire than it is to transmute.
Especially since unsubbed you can only hold 100, and subbed, you can only hold 200. And that is your whole account not each char, which really sucks but does make sense.
Ultimately I think that despite me being a crafting central player, Ill end up skipping any type of transmutation and sell the gems.
