Gems in spvp
They to fix the rewards for spvp, sure, but I’m not sure putting gems in there was a good call. Maybe if the rewards were better they could add an exchange glory for gems option like there is for gold. Otherwise I don’t think they’ll put them back in.
It didn’t turn out to be a good option for them, because all gems earned in PvP are actually generated outside of actual cash; which would have caused inflation issues on their end.
I think if there was a way to make gold in PVP and then pay gold to enter paid tourneys then it would be cool to make gems and or gold but as of now … Doesn’t look likely
