Introducing, Jewels!

[Haligali]

In all classes 24 primary> 9str+9dex+9int

This is false, enchanted eye is the most favoured gem currently both for sorcerers and rogues, you can compensate the damage loss from the primary stat with para gems or damage jewels easy.

Interesting.....can't comment yet. I'll need to see this in action..

[Cursebaby]

Awesomeee!!!

[Khicho]

Great concept! Nicely done with this!

[mark_02_neil]

[Zylx]

Awesommmmmme!!!!!!

2. Log in and play once Jewels become available and you can tell me where they come from.

I do like it when things are left to us to figure out, especially if it takes a bit of time to do ^_^

Reminds me of when Elite Bael and Krunch II just appeared as AP one day and then there was a mad game wide rush to try and work out how/where they spawned.

This is great! I love the idea!!!! And it proves you are listening, I read somewhere and someone said to keep the farming in old maps alive instead of killing them, these jewels will do just that. Thanks StS great job.

[*]Many more stats are now available with Jewels! There will be 8 types of Jewels available when the feature launches. In addition to the STR, DEX, and INT stats you are all used to, you can now also upgrade your gear with Jewels which grant Armor, Crit, Damage, HP, or Mana.

for damage... it it like para? or it's like passive damage ?
while we're at it , any plans to chance the way passive damage works ?

This is amazing! Thank you. The only thing I would say is please make sure the gap between the first and last tier of these jewels is not too wide. Also, please make achieving the last tier of gems very possible by pure farming.

If cracked jewels are replacing essences on the loot table, will they have the same rarity?

shouldn't there be? it takes 2187 first tire to get 1 last tire jewels....

not bad not bad :3

• Jewels have item level requirements. In order to upgrade a piece of gear with a Jewel, the gear must have at least a certain required level. For example, Excellent Jewels can only upgrade gear that requires character level 20 and higher.
• Many more stats are now available with Jewels! There will be 8 types of Jewels available when the feature launches. In addition to the STR, DEX, and INT stats you are all used to, you can now also upgrade your gear with Jewels which grant Armor, Crit, Damage, HP, or Mana.

Holy cow! A replacement of para gems, or will they be less powerful than the current para-gems we have ATM?!

[Caabatric]

Well done and is major changing to gameplay, play style, and people run with far different stats and gems now!!!
The complexity is great as higher level players will search for the besgt combinations of gems to their play style, and lower level can stick with the good old primary stats and not lose out on too much.
In pve I think that 4 rogue parties however are going to become more and more prominent because these rogues can get a huge amount of str from these gems...
I suggest making certain mobs in the map un-able to be crit unless those mobs are under sorcerer time shift, or the war used skyward smash in the past x-seconds to make the other classes wanted in time runs and usual runs.

[epicrrr]

now were talking, good stuff!

[BeoNeo]

Wait.can we take out gems from clothes and then they become jewels?(para and eye?)

[ceanizes]

Great idea guys I can't wait, hopefully jewels drop as frequently as essences did. Will they drop all over Arlor or just at the new map?

[Hobilomm]

Very good. However if i understand right, probably crack armor jewel should be more rare than int str and dex so, if we need 128 crack for 1 best. Seems a bit hard.

[Abersit]

Finally i am happy to see that STS are moving towards hardwork and farming rather than the crazy LUCK , we hope to see something like this for the crafing of the new 46 gears, (HARD WORK OVER LUCK PLS!!!)
