I agree 100%. We going to blame players who spent their hard earned cash on this and solve the problem by making them pay the price? Sounds like a good way to get people to /q.

I should add, I was one of those non-forum followers who lost out from buying Blue Diamond resist gear my guild required right before patch.

I'm just trolling. On a more serious note, there are only 4 slots in NPC turnins right? Is the code smart enough to handle a stack of 10 Blue Diamonds?

personally I think the cat is too far out of the bag in this situation to put it back in now. It would cause some pretty significant problems. it is not realistic for most of the player base to throw dozens of blue diamonds at gear they already spent a lot of money on to keep it the way it is.

Just like wus and the imbued rings, what was made is probably going to have to stay, just fix the future enchants to use those gems.

possibly make what has already been crafted no drop so that it stays where it is, effectively removing them from circulation

That seems a very good suggestion to me.


Bias: I have a Human Blacksmith with 211 skill and have made some of the mediocre Qeynos forge stuff that would be affected by the Jacinth requirement. Also, I have a WoodElf who wears some of the more unbalanced HighElf stuff, but hoping to replace those with planar drops over time since he's a Warrior, so the proposed nodrop change would potentially cost me pp I could get reselling those pieces while the suggested blue diamond turn-in requirement would lead me to simply stop using the HighElf pieces as they are not worth that kind of pp to a Warrior. I do not have any chars wearing any of the most powerful (Dwarven) stuff.

I agree with Cath on this one, making the existing items no drop would make sure that the people got what they paid for yet keeps it out of circulation if its deemed nerfed

This sounds like a fair compromise.

[Menemas]

I support Catherin's compromise

[SirAlvarex]

+1 on making the armor no drop.

[Frieza_Prexus]

If the no drop solution is on the table, might as well go ahead and nix any era-inappropriate items as well. Wu's, Sol Ro wizard rings, etc.
