    also for anyone who says that we should just do metallurgy? have you done metallurgy? the odds of gems
    even at R1 is still pretty low.

    That's why they're gems and not bubblegum?

    I average over 6-8 new gems an hour.

    And back to my point maybe they arent meant to fall out the sky.

    Gems currently are not hard to get. You get a lot of gems from spamming Theater Missions or Nowhere to Run Elite. If you are really desperate for 10 CM gems, you can get those from Blaanid boxes.

    The new gems? Nexon is pretty glib on where exactly to get the new ones, it seems. Are they mostly the same as the old ones?

    Sadly veteran dungeon and event boxes for new gems at the moment. But once G24 hits and unlocks Tory Ravine there will be more efficient methods in getting the new gems and the custom glow effects for egos.

    You just need to run Nowhere to Run with a bag doll collecting for you. You'll have gems in no time. Sure, they won't be 10cm, but come on! They still drop like candy.

    Man im new here but all i ever see is folks crying they want things spoon fed. Ever think maybe they want you to grind for something? Everyone is QQ vet as it is so lets make it rain new gems so all the spoiled players push it to dead content a month within release. Idk what gaming world everyone comes from but the game on easy street isnt fun. I love vets, i like a grind. You just want max stuff for free so you can afk in dunbarton with your kax ego. Its so silly. The gem argument will ruin metallurgy vet dungeon and any other method to obtain cuz it wont be "worth" it cuz u can just afk for better rewards
    May as well ask nexon to just make your ego max lvl day one. But youll cry then theres no challenge. I hope they dont do an event
    Heck i hope we dont get the mining area. Stop being lazy and actually work for something.
    Even leveling is easy im 10k been in this game for 3 weeks. If you cant be bothered to farm gems you shouldnt get a high lvl spirit weapon. Simple.

    This person does have a point. We are getting spoiled. Everything is rushed. :(

    There are so many things to grind in this game. It's not a problem of not wanting to grind. Rates for new gems in vet dungeons are garbage. Metallurgy might help you get gems, but the amount needed to level spirit weapons compared to the time you put in is a bit mind numbing.

    I like levelling in mabinogi. I like grinding skills a lot, that's why almost everything is r1. I'm a player who sincerely loves seeing my character progress and working for things. But I don't like rng when it has low rates. Grinding skills tells you exactly what to expect and how much you need to do. Same with levelling.

    You can only get the old gems from nowhere to run I thought? Which give very poor exp compared to the new ones. Especially when they're tiny.

    Hmm, nah.

    But as should be obvious by now, it doesn't matter how much anyone wants or doesn't want another gem event.

    It's gonna happen anyways.
    And lots of people are gonna take advantage of such events in the future.
    And continue to do so, on and on.

    It's either work hard to get it done now, or wait and you'll have an easier time.
    Not like there's a rush, what with egos being permanent content.

    Well YEAH now gems are much more relevant and we sure as hell will take advantage of such an event.

    But I fear Nexon will make the drop rates for those events even more infuriating...

    Ok, more interactive then. Hokay.

    Introducing the Gem Mining Event! Grind for special passes to go into special mining dungeons and use your pick axe to mine for gems with abysmal drop rates! Everything about this event will be MANUAL! NO NETFLIXING FOR YOU DURING THIS EVENT!!!

    Oh yeah you are gonna love it! XD

    *queue in the other majority of the community who rages about this tedious bs and not being able to do anything else but stare at the screen clicking*

    I mean.. we do usually get afk-fishing events that gives us lots of gems.. hope they don't change that now that we actually have good use of them.

    I sorta see it that since these gems will now have a good use become more rare...come on folks I am sure you know Nexon by now...they won't make it easy on us. Trying to see what paying feature they could add to make money out of things in such a really annoying way.

    Although I yet to see some pay to win feature to erg upgrading, mixed fillings about this...because you must have the biggest luck in the world to ever reach lvl 50 erg upgrade.

    I just can't wait to see people still dumping bags full of gems on the floor for me because you know they still will >:3 if some idiots will drop direct dyes on the ground that are worth 2 mil each then they'll be dumping bags of gems too and I'll be there to sweep them up
