    Default Better percent chance of getting grands?

    There should be a higher percent chance of getting grands, I put 8 items on upgrade on separate accounts for 3 days and still got no grands. I guess waiting for double grand gem week is the only time I'll get grands. ( Barely any grand twink items for lvl 17 mage on CS). I apologize if this thread has been mentioned before. It might also be just my luck on getting them.

    Stop complaining pls. I can also start complaing about getting 2k-5 plat-2k 50 times in a row from locks but you don't hear me.

    Lol unhelpful, and you still complained.


    To op, wait for double weekend. And if you can't wait, craft like your not expecting any grand gems. For some reason that's how I get all mine o.0

    Perhaps because after 20 days 5x craft each, you finally got one?
    So you were kinda pleasantly surprised when you finally made it?

    Yes, grands are very rare and it should be that way. If everyone could easily get grand gems, then what would be the point of having grand gems?

    The purpose of this game is not to tie up players with meaningless tasks. That means don't make me spend a lot of time trying to get something that everyone has anyway. Anything that takes a lot of effort should be somewhat rare and NOT be something that everyone has.

    If grand gems were going to be easy to get, then just forget having grand gems and make it so that there are just regular gems.

    I'm not saying to make it easy, just up the percent by a little. A grand gem is like getting an Arcane from a lock.

    Not even close. Arcane from a locked takes like 500-1000 crate x 3 items per care = 1 in 1500-3000 chance.

    I've been geming 5+ items every day for months, and I can tell you the chance is more like 1 in 25-30.

    Yeah, i'll wait. Its better than spending 100k+ on gems and getting nothing.

    I think it's harder to grand gem at the moment... everyone is upgrading their new mythic weapons at the same time. I've been trying for a week with no grand gems. Usually would have up to 2 by now. Just my opinion.

    Gemming is hard for good reason. If it were easy, everyone would have perfect items and not buy the inflated effort items.
