Jewel Changes FAQ

All of this is quite interesting. Moving mana reservation in particular. Thanks GGG for keeping your word on having us informed on what's going on.

We aren't ready to share the full list of unique Jewels being removed...

There are 3 massive issues with the manifesto and subsequent follow-up:

1) This was not an existing problem, but a new problem created by GGG when they removed the jewel implicits from Harvest for no discernable reason. This was a self-inflicted problem for which we had a superior solution literally 1 league ago.

2) In a world where you've taken away mana reservation efficiency time and time again, you're now pushing people in the far more efficient direction of just running Purity of Elements. Giving back 2% MRE as a possible jewel explicit does not make up for the fact that we lost the MRE mastery.

3) You committed to taking feedback. This change has had overwhelmingly negative feedback. You showed up here in this announcement to double-down and essentially say you're not actually taking feedback, but simply making decisions and then going into further detail about the intent behind them. The change is bad. The feedback is "don't fucking implement this".

Every single time we utilize a jewel mod affix for ailment immunity, we're giving EHP or damage. This is just another thinly-veiled attempt and slowing players down. All that's going to happen is you're going to see the usage of Purity of Elements spike as people roll MRE on every jewel they can, since Purity of Elements makes us immune to all elemental ailments and the MRE that enables us to run it alongside the other mandatory defensive auras benefits us anyway.

It's never been more clear that you all don't play your own game.

Hopefully Brittle Barrier's 'faster start of energy recharge' mod is going to the general mod pool, because the jewel is still being used.

Two people on the Kalandra SSF ladder and one on the Kalandra HC ladder which might not sound like much, but this is in today's era where the game isn't as forgiving as it used to be.

I also note a lack of mention of the ease with which the Fireborn jewel could be improved. It hasn't been touched since it was first introduced to the game, SEVEN YEARS AGO.

Please make spectre great again :(
All of Kalandra season I checked every ghastly eye jewel that dropped, and thats lots, I didn't get a single teir 1 life roll, 36-40 life. Whats up with that?
Have you considered a way for players to access the effects of unique jewels such as energy from within, Energised armor, healthy mind etc.?

While I would agree that these jewels were useless and disappointing to find in 90% of cases, it enabled players to scale stats that weren't available on their starting point of the tree, for example scaling armor as a shadow.

I understand that that role could be filled by small cluster jewels however cluster jewels are not as available early, they take more point and currency investment and in some cases give less of the desired statt, whilst also restricting the player's reach in the passive tree to the 2 closest cluster jewel sockets instead of letting them venture to other areas where other desirable stats might be available (stats that would otherwise have to be rolled on an even harder to find large or medium cluster jewel).
Thanks GGG, good clarifications, this is now interesting and sounding fun.
Some of these answers are worthless or don't answer the question at all lol...
