Great post :-)
I like that alot.
Awesome like it
Will there be an associated crafting time with crafting these jewels? If so, have you considered the user experience ramifications of having such a thing? As some people eluded to, it'll take over 2000 cracked jewels to get the best level 8 jewel... even if the crafting is 1 hour for each 2 jewels (or 3 jewels) you're looking at a crazy time to craft. If it stays at 8 hours like it is now... I don't even want to know what the community response will be. Whatever you do, please don't make this a platinum hog.
The start of fibus's post says they realise one of the problem with jewels is their craft time and hence unusability for thst period of time and they want to correct it
So im guessing either you can use your current jewel while upgrading or upgrading will be short( since they hav said gold will be involved in upgrades)

I really love to read such informations.
I think it will be a really good way to revive (a lil bit) the farming community.
Maybe we have more "gem/juwel" setups with these new jewels that will work for a specific task
Some questions i still have xD
These "basic juwels" are dropping like esses but only in a specific area ... like basic int juwel only in dead city maps . Am i right?
Also .. all states (prefixes) of these gems are tradeable?
How will we obtain these jewels? Same we we earn the current gems?
Ah man this is awesome I saw this and immediate thought of Diablo. Weaker tiered gems being used to eventually craft perfect jewels Idea is great and should bring alot of variation to the game
+10000 STS cheers
Hm, i see many problems now.
These new jewel system has some good sides, but the current gem system also. eg. We are always on need of gems, if we get new gear, so if you loot/farm gems you could sell or use it. With jewels we dont need to farm new ones, just remove from old gear and put into in the new. In the future there will be a point, when we couldnt sell jewels because everyone got their best jewels.
Enchanted eye will be a problem also, it currently gives 9 overall stat at lvl30+ plus crit, while these new jewels only 8 so. Im using 9 eye gems currently, with jewels the max i can get is 24/24/24 instead of 27/27/27 plus 8.73% crit. Idk whats the crit jewel stats now, one noble crit jewel will give +8% crit from lvl30?
People still hoard many eye gems, it will be very expensive in the future and gives an unfair advantage for rich players again.

Really sounds good, I hope it is implemented good as well.
In the short term yes. But there is a finite supply and the initial post stated that because of the finite supply that they will eventually be phased out. There are many eyes already socketed with no way to remove them.
A good compliment to the new jewels is obviously releasing gear more consistently as well. Should zap the eyes and paras unless people wanna sit on them, in which case they would likely be sacrificing any momentary advantage that the gems offer.
Very nice idea for gem and farming.
But 2187 for one jewel and 32805 for all gears sound bit too much?
Or will these jewels drop rate be not so rare?
We need to farm 350 jewel everyday for 3 month to reach 31500...

For this , I think it should be like this... We put cracked jewel into a slot of gear, now got one more (and say 2 cracked is gonna make damaged jewel) so lets not make it like that we have to take that jewel out of gear(for gold as mentioned) , then combine those 2 cracked one to make damaged one. Lets make it other way round. Got the 2nd cracked, then we have to put the gear with that cracked one we recently looted and select the old slot in which we have cracked, and pay gold and it will be "jewel"ed(as we say gemmed) with the damaged one.
So in short this will not allow players to take out jewels from one gear to put it into other gear, making it a worse ending in some time as you mentioned, but also let players to upgrade that jewel to next better one with using the older one placed in the gear.
now just a bit off topic: For anyone did it remind of Diablo II , Horadric Cube , Transmute 3 gems of same category/type to get the next better gem of that type, just like me??
