I agree with this. The jewel system definitely needs some kind of tweaking if it is to be am actual replacement of gems. One thing I definitely see as a must is the removal of water/nature jewels from the loot table of certain maps. In my opinion these should not drop in elites for example. There must also be a viable farming source of at least the main stat jewels (dex, int, str) - a while ago I suggested a new crypt map (a la wt/kt/km) with new mobs, new design etc.
I understand the whole farming idea and stuff, but right now things don't look ok to me. I haven't bought any jewels from auction or other payers, I'm just farming them, and I must say - I still haven't farmed enough cracked finesse jewels to craft the equivalent of a standard fire gem. This doesn't seem right to me.
