Q: current mistsong gems will be salvageable? and if y what mats its tear will give

[TerroDragon]

Will the droprate of Metallic Auroria Crates be increased? the current rate is very low and it could lead to lunarite shortages.

[Lin]

Is there a minimum level for these new gems like the old ones have? The only bow in the game with pure spirit is lvl 40 and I want to put 1.0% cast time gems in it. Will this be possible in 4.0?

Will the droprate of Metallic Auroria Crates be increased? the current rate is very low and it could lead to lunarite shortages.

It was supposed to be drastically increased in 3.0, which lead to more people grinding mobs and lunarite being much more affordable in KR. We were told it was 'bugged' in our 3.0 build, and the initial rate was never implemented. We did receive a metallic crate drop rate increase in 3.5, but it still pales in comparison to what KR received.

Even though the amount of lunarite yielded from opening metallics is being increased, a massive shortage will occur if the droprate isn't brought in-line with KR rates.

Question Time!

1) What will current Mistsong/Loyalty yellow gems convert into if we break them down?

2) What about current Gale / Earth Lunarite? What does that turn into? (That come from Unidentified Earth/Gale Lunarite)

3) Yellow Lunarite, I understood, was coming from Mistsong Reticules and Jade Orbs. Is this correct? If so, will our current stash of Jade Orbs work to drop yellow crystals (Do they keep the same item IDs?). Same with reticules. Can we stash them up before 4.0?

4) What happens with random Mats used in the other system? (Like memory Shards)

Thanks!

Can you please clarify what the current lunarites will convert to?

Fine Fire/Wave Lunarite -> ???
Superior Fire/Wave lunarite- > ???
Fire/Wave Lunarite -> ???

[Edwardo]

As others have asked I would be interested in knowing what the current gale/earth lunarite converts to? To the Gale/Earth Glows?

What about the unidentified versions: Unidentified Earth Lunarite, Unidentified Gale Lunarite, Unidentified Brilliant Yellow Lunarite? Can you still open these and if so what do they provide?

What about Sealed Clear/Vivid Lunagem's from Mistsong that are currently a mat to make the blue crit dmg/heal gems? Can they be converted to anything or can we still open these, if so what do they give?

Have they indicated why they are moving evasion from gloves but not parry, outside of just general archer hate?

[Elorin]

Will the Fine Wave/Fine Fire lunarite that drops from the Heart of Ayanad be converted to the new types, or will it just be discontinued as a drop from that boss?

[ERose]
