1. Most of the Elemental Jewel material requirements have been replaced with various amounts of Shiny Crystals instead, e.g. ELB needs 2000 Shiny Crystals instead of 10 EJs now. This can be good or bad depending on the server's economy. The Shiny Crystals, while not rare, are not entirely common either, and they only drop from low level places, so they're quite a pain to farm for players with only high level characters.
10. Items available for exchange (and the required amount of Old Journals) are:-
12. The boy sells the keys to Federigo instanced missions at the cost of various amounts of Shiny Crystals. Federigo no longer provides the key exchange service.
