You disassemble armors for refines. You'll be farming armors.

but isnt it stupit to let gems totally dissapear when you disamble? why let such gems be wasted?

[Wint3rb0rN]

Well dissasembling will remove the gem, then you need to dissasemble again to get the parts. To my knowledge it will only dissapear if the gem is grade[1]?

[Harada]

Any plans to add another source for materials to make up for losing disassembly?

If you remove gems of any grade from any socketed equipment, it will disappear. With this system we can avoid a huge amount of circulating gems. In this way, we can make the economy healthy.

[Wint3rb0rN]

I see your point, but then the price of gems is going to skyrocket This will also totally nullify anything but Gem[7]'s since slotting them will mean ultimately losing them one way or another. They don't become crucial until your stats start maxing out, but you catch my drift. If they lost 3 grades, Gem[4]'s and up would not be a complete loss, and Gem[3]'s and less aren't nearly as painful since you can farm them.

On the other hand, the current system would set a market for Gem[4] jewelry sets, which are really useful if you don't have your own artisan yet.

EDIT

Having second thoughts on my perspective. Camping out bosses for Gem[2]'s at lower levels was fun

about the gem dissapearing thing, i think its abit overkill to make it that way from grade 1-7 gems, the system it self is good and all but they should make it effective only after grade 3, so if you dissemble a t3 u still have it, but if u dissemble a t4-t7 u would loose it.

whos gonna farm grade 7 straight from the beggining, i guess if you ask me best way is to slot grade 3s when u can and farm ur way up from there to g7, i know its possible did it once before.. but depends if grade 3 gems drops in eldeon or not. if we can only farm grade 1 gems that would be alot harder and almost impossible.

Crystal farming can happen too, but I don't know what their drop rates are in relation to gems (needs to be about 5-6x more common to be more productive, unless they drop from the same mob). I have a feeling that the refines used in the crafting are going to be much more of a problem than the gems are, though, when it comes to crafting higher grades.

[Wint3rb0rN]

You can't farm 7's O.o

I said you should only lose 1-3 because those are the ones you can farm.

I posted this In a different tread, I shall copy paste it in here because it applies. That thread talked about increasing the buff duration, so bear with the post content which talks of that.

I doubt the buff duration will increase. Sorry but this server is not about handing everything to you on a platter. This server is about the grind, the pride of your char and experiencing the game. We are working on Instances for lower and higher levels. Now, everyone's bitching about higher exp, well if we increase the exp you will only be able to complete that instance once or twice. As I said, this server is not about rushing through the game! If we wanted you to rush through the game we would increase the rates, shit we'd have it like InfernoRose was.. This server is not about that. There are DOUBLE exp quests in the game, USE THEM.
Look, this is and always will be a low rate server. It was intended to be 1x rates, It's set to 2x currently. This server will always be a low rate server. As for the buffs, they will probably not be increased. They are 8 minutes and 20 seconds when maxed.
