Swapping exceptional gem?

[inkredible]

I dont know if this idea is any good or if its even gonna work
but..... having exceptional gem to an item you necessarily dont need more than the other, sucks
is there a way that maybe.. the exceptional gem can be swap to another OF your item..
of course the gem is still bounded to you.. cannot be traded.. stays in the crafting station.. but an option to transfer that specific gem
to another weapon / armor / helm etc .. ONCE only .. after that it disappear .. it is a super gem after all..

So suggestion in summary:

Be able to remove exceptional gem (untradeable) ONCE cost 2 plats(OR MORE up to u) to remove/ keep it - and not vanish .. so you can transfer it to
another item for upgrade .. unlike a regular gem .. once you remove it.. its gone


replace upgrade still takes 12 hours.. nothing change


feedbacks:

One of the issues that were pointed out to me was

" people will randomly just upgrade any armor until they get super gem "

Which i think is good for both STS and everyone..

If it takes plats to remove / keep the super gem .. then sts would also make faster money
due to the fact PEOPLE WILL upgrade a whole lot more items .. which means more "upgrading item" to "rush" and more items to
remove super gem from = more plats

10 items upgrading.. player wants to by pass time 16 x 10 = 160
(if twink included)
player got 3 super gem = remove/keep x 10 = 30 plats ( if it takes 10 plats to remove)


but also good for players who need the super gem somewhere else.

- Remember: its not tradeable.. you wont make money off it.. it is for a single player own use.
its just a better process rather than getting your full super gem in weeks to even a whole month..
it doesnt make it fun for anyone when they have to spend more money to buy gears because they dont have anything to use
to play pvp or whatever.. everyone in game right now is just sitting around.. waiting.. it makes the game boring


Keep everything the same but please implement this! or something similar to this idea

[MrGanjaa]

niceee suggestion

[yasshh]

Nice idea

[Venom]

I like this idea! If its possible, it should be implemented.

[Kostral]

+1 inko great idea

This would reduce the overall income for sts. Since people wont have to unequip their main gear, less people will pay the rush fee.

You also have to remember, people right now are spending 1000's of plats to get 3+ supergems on their mythic/arcane items, and we've seen pics of ppl who've already done so. I dont think 2plat is gonna make STS any more money than they are already banking now. maybe 10 months from now. but right now, it wont happen

they will still have to unequip their main gear, eventually when they have their super gems
still take 3 days .. and theres no guarantee youll get super gem in ur other upgrading armors. which take 8 hours- 12 hours and you only have 5 slots
so really when u think about it.. it does still take time



if not 2 plats then 5 plats or even 10 plats which ever balances it out

thats another good things tho, id get to use my main gear .. and people can still play not sit around and be bored of AL. pvp is dead

theres no problem increase the cost removing/ keeping the plats. 2 plat is just a suggestion if they wanna balance it out sure make it 10 plats, all i care for is being able to swap it

It's not good idea.
1. If u can removed except gem, player will buy except one on cs directly, ruin the price of normal gem.
2. Price of items with except gem will drop, no one will buy it, because he can embed except from his other items into the one he want to have except on.
3. Company will make less money after that, because players used to spend lots of plat to bypass timer and get except gem fast. But now they only need to buy a epic items with except on, then removed gem and resocket on his myth/arcane items, which cost him less plat to do that.

1. its bound to the character .. cannot be removed from the item by the person who bought it off cs
2. its not as dramatic as u think it is.. you can upgrade 10 epic items at one time .. and get no super gem, then ud have to wait another 8 hours
or spend 16 plat x 10 = 160. or whatever cost of plat for epics
3. player will still use plats to by pass the time.. 8 hours = 16 plats. u know what they say.. the cheaper.. u get more buyers = in the end u make more money

plus for 2nd slot 3rd slot.
some people leave it there when they go to sleep. by pass the time .. 12 hours left or so.. close to the "replacement gem time"


appreciate everyone's feedback and issues brought forward

- this is brainstorming , everything can be solved so .. my idea doesnt have to be implemented but its the start of the idea
in which i know STS could work around with

[Energizeric]

No, definitely not. There are so many ways to exploit such a thing.

[epicrrr]

I hear exceptional gems are hard to get, so as long as the "excpnl" gems are untradeable this is nice.

Agreed. Ill just buy random epics. Since im not giving up my main gear I wont use plat to rush it. If it is superior, ill consider fast bonding it for some plat. A task that could potentially cost 1000 plat is now only 24 plat in some cases.

[inkredible]

its an idea, somethin can be work around it

[Nesox]

No, definitely not. There are so many ways to exploit such a thing.

I immediately pictured people upgrading random secondary equipment hoping for a better gem to put in their mythic to avoid their primary gear being offline constantly and having to pay plat. Gems should be stuck wherever they are placed initially for STS to keep selling more plat and for prices to stay higher. Otherwise a character effectively has no need of future procurements when higher lever gear comes out.

Great Ideas win win stuation from both STS and us.

[bhutkeyur]

Umm I like the idea but I prefer otherway. STS should give us exceptional gem while crafting not upgrading(tradeble). Its way too greedy by STS bcoz we are getting supergems while upgrading.
