Its a lot worse then just 5 medals. 1000 souls, 5 medals, 2 cursed stones, and a Celestial Traitstone. If you’re going to charge cursed stones, we’re already limited on exchanges. It doesn’t need to be 5 medals. That’s absurd. ---

Would have loved to see Treasure Troop upgrades added to the Soulforge in this Soulforge-centred update. Feels like a missed opportunity (although I guess if Cursed Runes were involved, the relative costs would be exorbitant). ---

Does anyone know what the curse gnome drop table looks like outside of GAP? Are we talking 10,25,50 runes per gnome? It looks like it’s 1,2,4 in a GAP. Edit: although the 4 was from someone farming E7, not the ironhawk team on E1. ---

Are the chances of getting a gnome going to be increased outside of the special week? Seems like a lot runes needed for Forg6.1 when players have a 1:300 chance (this is the 10th Gnome I think) of finding a cursed gnome. Without spending gems, I would like an honest chance of crafting the new mythic before the servers are turned off on Gems of War please. ---

100 Writs for a single Forge Scroll effectively makes upgrades for any Doomed Weapons just as out-of-reach as they were before, if not worse now that there are more weapons in need of upgrades… 😕 ---
