Gem reward in sPvP only?
They want you to buy gems in pve. Has this not been clear with the patch?
This is absurd. You earn loot in pve. Crafting mats, junk loot, vendor blues and greens, salvagable drops, money from DEs. All of which convert into gems, among a great many other things.
sPvP you don’t. You only get gems by winning paid tournaments, which cost tickets to enter, which are purchased with gems.
Yeah… if you’ve been paying attention, switching GP to Gems has been dropping every week. We are now at about 70 per gold, which is a ridiculous exchange rate, given the return on that gem market.
While I am not arguing that Gold to Gems should be cheap, I do feel it should be reasonable, and the reward for doing so substantial, and I’ve yet to see it be so. I am still waiting for Vanity Items that I would want to wear to appear in the store.
