The Bountiful Gems node, how does this works when it comes to troops creating certain special gems that include the brown such as Elemental Stars? Will Stellarix create one extra Elemental Star in her spell?

I still feel that we needs someone to test this.

most people just spam Wand to get everything started so its not ultra important.

If you’re going Stella + 3 Pharoah/3 Boompiles or any other variants then maybe you’ll want the cleanse. But it’s also “just” a 20% bonus chance to cleanse, so I don’t want to gamble an all-in team’s success on an extra 20% bonus cleanse, but that’s just me.

and then if you get enough magic, it won’t even matter if you’re frozen if you instantly win 😅

I am confused, do you have to start at point zero to choose your way.. or can you jump to a magic node deep within the tree to upgrade it. OP writes as the jumping is possible, and that just sounds a little too good to be true to me.

It won’t let you buy anything that’s completely gray. The only things you’ll be allowed to buy are colored icons. (so the starting point of the board)

Hmm, also Umbral Star gems, but they dont have brown in them.. I see, it is applyed to any kind of gem colors or special gems..

It’s a universal effect, not tied to any troop color 😀

(and no I’m not going to test every single possible gem option to see if anything is bugged. I’ll let the bugs come to me)

I usually spend a little to try new features. personal preference. (Shop sells 1250 star stones per week. No I don’t plan on buying it every week.)

I don’t wanna to be a rude, but [The Astral Spire: A detailed overview](https://community.gemsofwar.com/t/the-astral-spire-a-detailed-overview/89279) contains a lot of questions and answers prepared by devs)

I am surprised that they decided to make an already “easy” game even easier by adding Astral Spire into the game.

On the other hand I can see people going bonkers in the shop to get those Star Stones.

It may keep the game alive and up for a good time to come!

@TheIdleOne out of curiosity can you share a SS now of what your brown tree look like?
