Well... To put it in perspective :
8 plat = 60 minutes of luck elixer which in KM3 is about 6-8 locked crates.
6-8 locked crates sells for 60-70kish or the equivalent of 14 finesse jewels (at 5k each).
The value doesn't seem to be panning out here.

Bringing a quote from Remiem over from the announcement thread related to tradeable elixirs:

To give you a little more insight into our thinking around this event: Since jewel elixirs are a new item and something that could very well create a large impact on the jewel grind, we are testing them out with this limited time event. Many of you remember testing the event system with Goblin before Ursoth. A very similar formula is happening here. Before making the jewel elixirs tradeable, and thus more widely available, we would like to measure their impact on the game in a very controlled way first and for a limited time. We'll be collecting your feedback along the way, and measuring the overall impact the elixirs have on the game, and then take it from there.
Point being, definitely keep the great feedback coming, especially once you are able to try them out for yourself. Thanks!
Well the only updates we got from the plat users is that it has not been worth it. Plus those who may have gotten a few jewels are either hoarding them up to sell later as a higher tiered jewel or just socketing them.Quote:

Otherwise I agree with the concept of testing it out, because a game changing input without proper survey can result in cases similar to the event gems or sns.
i tried, but I only got 1 lightning instead of finesse.. this is not worth it..thx anyways
U guys need to use more dots.
Used four elixirs:
1) 18
2) 15
3) 15
4) 32
Mind jewels, while farming Orc Fangs.
Super profitable, basically farmed a fortified jewel in one hour with just 32 platinum.
Implement them permanently and offer 10 elixir kits with tradeable elixirs please!
So it's a mage-only elixir then.
Even so, 8 plat for 15 minutes is very high for any elixir. Especially given what everyone but the last on this thread have reported so far.
Tested.. chaos jewels elixir.. 15 minute i got only 1 chaos and 1 fury?? Not worth it... :(
Yay! The elexirs are aw!
Just tried another on warrior, got 7 cracked minds and 2 damaged minds, better than my first attempt. I still think if its costing 8 plat it should be 30min. Won't be buying anymore.
Tried 2nd time using mage.. chaos elixir.. got 2 chaos only for 15 minute
tried 3rd time using mage.. chaos elixir (8plat) and lightning elixir (8plat) plus speed elixir (4plat).. only got 2 cracked chaos and 1 cracked lightning... ok ok no more :(
Meh...I'll pass XD wake me up when ursoth is here
AL ..for plat player only ..right..??????

More importantly when is 2x fang and teeth weekend. You can test this elix on some test server, people got other things to use their time on.
I see only mages posting positive replies about getting jewels by using the elixir all other posts from rogues & tanks are just with negative opinions.
Last night ran solo at tindirn wilds after a long time without elixir i looted 3 cracked fury jewels & a fineese.
It seems the only advantage of using the elixir is to get a damage jewel to save an hour of crafting time & 30 gold(LoL).
Even though with these elixirs none of them intend to buy Nature, Water & Diamond jewels elixirs as their drop rate is more than expected all over arlor including elite maps.
Suggestion :- Rename the elixir as " Mage's Jewel Elixir " :p
Not tradable :(
Guys I tested a lot in party and solo, normal and elite.
My suggestion is don't waste elixir on solo or normal maps. Get good party and grind Rengol. It happened to me several times that I fired nox into the full group and was awarded with 2 cracked and 1 damaged.
Solo on mage I curse the mobs, ingnite them, freeze them, clock them, dmg ticks like crazy and I get nothing.
I am getting decent results running as a Rogue. I did 3 runs with finesse and Chaos elixers at the same time. I did not keep an exact breakdown but I got 25 cracked and 12 damaged jewels pretty evenly distributed.
I got these running Elite Ren'gol using traps and charged Nox. Pet was Nekro.
The damaged jewels made it worth while for me but at 8 plat each luck lixers and KM3 would bring similar profits although admittedly over a longer time span.
Just to add to my previous post...
I don't know of any reason to purchase water, nature, diamond, or Lightning elixers. The primary stat jewels and chaos are the only ones it makes sense for. If you want diamond jewels just run with a finesse elixer sell the jewels and buy the diamonds, you will get way more out of it.
In fact you could just pick the highest value jewel no matter what it is, or Double up with the top two. Sell the jewels you get and buy the ones you want for less.
The only way I would run with one of the 'lesser' jewel elixers is if Klaas gave me one.
Need 2x Weekend ^_^:applause:
