I've been giving some thought to what stats the crystals should give. There are a few decisions that need to be made. Firstly should crystals give flat stats or should they give percentage increases to the items in to which they socket.
If we go with percentages I imagine we would never see a Void Sword with anything but Fire Crystals (damage) in them and we would rarely see a Rift Gun with anything but Air Crystals in it (accuracy) as increasing the largest stat by a percentage would be the biggest advantage. So right now I'm thinking more along the lines of flat stat increases as they are also easier to balance.
If we go with percentages (or even if we don't for fire crystals) what happens when you put a crystal in an item that doesn't have that stat to increase. A damage crystal can't increase damage done when it is in armor, etc. I guess they just wouldn't be socketable in items that did not have their respective stat to increase.
Given the potential for this update to go badly, I'm not going to proceed with it until I'm happy with the plan in full. Please comment and discuss on the forums. Also congratulations to hincha for getting the first Misc item to level 5, the other item types are still open to be won.

"can it add +1 or +2 (pick your number) to the weapon? base stats don't make sense, perhaps armour can only accept dodge or speed?"

"I dare you to do something along the lines of each crystal gives different bonuses according the the Item type.

"wise! this has been a concern of everyone. under the original plan some crystals would be worthless."

"I like the idea of persent upgrade, why not just make it so the more of the same crystal on some the smaller the persentage gets..."

"Take your time zorg, It would be better brought out when it is at its best. I agree with percentage so people do not get too strong."

"Congrats hincha!! Not a surprise though, heh. -- Percentage sounds nicer, whether it's '5% more damage on hit' or '5% chance to do more damage on hit' Though the latter offers more fluctuation."
