The formula for determining average life expectancy of a crystal is simple:
The formula for determining average life expectancy of a crystal is simple:


<blockquote>'''Life Expectancy (in cycles) = Structure Hitpoints / Volatility / Volatility Damage''' </blockquote> [NEEDS CORRECTION]
<blockquote>'''Life Expectancy (in cycles) = Structure Hitpoints / Volatility / Volatility Damage''' </blockquote>


One may then multiply the expected cycles by the cycle time to calculate a crystal's life expectancy over time.
One may then multiply the expected cycles by the cycle time to calculate a crystal's life expectancy over time.  Remember that Volatility is a percentage, so for example, a crystal with a Volatility of 10% must use the value 0.10 in the equation.
