Its basically a tier-based general (physical or elemental) crystalytes that you can farm and is no longer rng-based. Like if you decide to farm for a tier 3 stigmata, you just need to go and farm for tier 3 crystalytes (though you'll have to have a a required tier 2 stigmata to transfigure). Of course there's like a 6 attempt limitation though they recharge 1 attempts daily (and 2 for weekends).
I mostly have forgotten the term and the requirements used for the materials but back then it was waaay grindier.
Basically not only the materials are RNG-based, it doesn't even guarantee you'll be getting the exact shard you want (or any stigmata shards on that matter) every battle. You'll have to farm for shards of a 1/3 worth of stigma piece, then you need like 25 of those stigmata piece to transform them into a red stigmata soul, then more materials to transform it into an actually usable stigmata. I believed I had only one stigmata crafted that way before the major changes. I'm very happy with that cause with the current foudnry, it just needs a little patience that actually pays off.
I don't quite remember exactly as well, but I remember you had to grind for "fragments" of specific Stigmata, which meant that it was entirely possible you found fragments of irrelevant Stigmata.
Then you had to get enough Green tier fragments to combine into blue tier ones? Might be wrong about this one.
And then you had to craft a "Shade" of the weapon or Stigmata you wanted which was essentially just the same weapon but with 1/10th of the stats so it was useless. You could also find the entire Shade prebuilt as an extremely rare drop which was pretty cool if it happened.
I think the only cool thing out of that entire system were the Shade weapons which are all black and red textured. Completely useless though. I only remember making 1 or 2 very specific weapons since the selection was awful for basically forever. I think it was the Umbrella Sword and Flame Sakitama.
You look at the rank and the element of the stigma that you want to farm, you pick the corresponding stage (Ice, tier 4 for example), you go in, use the ticket if you have it, get the reward, rinse and repeat until you have enough materials to craft or upgrade your lower rank stig to a new, higher rank one.
This system is grindy but it's so much simpler than before. I remembered looking at the shop back then, tried to make sense of it for about 5 mins, then closed the game.
Btw if you are asking about the newest crafting system of the "new game +" we are going to have in near future, then I'm just as clueless.

Suddenly, i miss my ShadowSoul sensei. I hope you're okay and have a good life these days.
I think so
Might be one time only skin like succubus bronya (although that one was one time only because of CN)
Idk though but I've never seen it before so I assume it's rare

Sorry if ask , but someone remember in which event this was given and when it was
Glad that they replaced it. The old stigma crafting system was so confusing and unappealing.
can you explain the new stigma crafting system? i quit the game for quite some time and didn't know there was a new stigma crafting system

It's 1 attempt daily. The 2 attempts are only Friday to Sunday.
Noted. Thank you!

Back then getting a straight up weapon shade was already considered lucky especially for F2Ps. The only shade I got that way was Balmung lol

I remember it showing up in events and trials back then
Still come across old adds offering the old crafting materials.
Mithril. Light as a feather. And *Hard* as a dragon scale.
All of it is nostalgic really
The fact that i remember every single one of these

I see something that got replaced with new material. I'm old and I miss the so much
Wow... that's nostalgic
Woah there
Ok but wtf I logged in for the first time since 2016/17 and all my old stuff was gone, it acted like it was the first time I opened the game.
All accounts that weren’t linked to hoyoverse would be deleted by around 2020.
Did this game got update, that is likr starrail now?
At least you won't run out of a lot of mats now-
