Intentionally and planned abuse of bug is wrong ..
Remember last year event run bug exploit.. people were banned for it..

It was reported in beginning of expansion.. I myself stocked a cracked to check it and removed it back cos i decide I wont exploit it. And many like me have faith in sts believed sts is going to fix it untill we saw this thread that's its still on. It gave a little shock.

Sts should give us a clarification about these jewels.
It's a bug or its planned ?Exploiters will be punished or it was a typing glitch?
Are we adviced to not exploit it or we can use it for pvp and other maps of pve.
Umm, no. This is not the kind of bug that is "exploited". No one will be banned or should be banned for this. If Sts gives you better stats through no fault of your own that is on Sts. It reminds me of some months back when suddenly everyone's imbued armor stats went up and the price skyrocketed because everyone wanted it to have better stats for pvp or even pve.
You could argue that buying the jewels after knowing about the bug to use it for pvp is an exploit but it's not going to get anyone in trouble because everyone is able to do it so there is nothing truly unfair about it and there is no material gain from it. If using them gave you a higher advantage to loot gold or locked crates then yeah, but then sts would have fixed it a long time ago because it affects the economy.
