Photon Crystal (commonly abbreviated "PC") is a rare tool that can be given to either Sue or Dr. Montague in exchange for their services.
- When given to Sue in the quests Black Paper's Dangerous Deal and Black Paper's Dangerous Deal 2, the player is allowed access to the enemy arenas.
- When given to Montague in the quest Claire's Deal 5, he will add Hit% to weapons created from enemy parts (see below for how to unlock this process).
Adding Hit to enemy weapons
It is possible to add Hit % to enemy weapons (and only enemy weapons) despite the attribute not being eligible for increase through Paganini's Exchange in Gallon's Shop. To add hit % to enemy weapons, a character must speak with Dr. Montague in the episode 4 quest Claire's Deal 5 after unlocking the feature through a sidequest present in the government quest 9-5:The Chosen (1/2).
Once the sidequest is completed, speaking to Dr. Montague in Claire's Deal 5 with an enemy weapon in the inventory will have him offer to further enhance the weapon through a process requiring Photon Crystals. This process involves giving Dr. Montague an increasing number of Photon Crystals (starting with one) for a decreasing percentage chance (starting at 100%) of adding 10% more Hit to the weapon in question each time, to a maximum of 50.

---|---|---|
Cost | Success Rate | Total Hit |
1 | 100% | 10 |
2 | 80% | 20 |
3 | 60% | 30 |
4 | 40% | 40 |
5 | 20% | 50 |
To unlock this option, the player must follow these steps:
- Start the quest 9-5:The Chosen (1/2)
- Proceed through the quest as normal until the large, circular crater room in Desert 1
- In this room, all enemies must be defeated within five minutes of entering the room
- If done successfully, a cutscene will play showing Dr. Montague appearing, who must be spoken to
- Proceed to the end of the quest as normal, and speak to Dr. Montague a second time in the last room before heading back to Pioneer 2
