In-game, it says explodes, for example.

But this post says destroys.

Moved it here, cos as I mentioned, all bugs reported should be kept out of that thread into this existing one

At the moment, I believe it should give full mana? Is that what it’s currently doing or rewarding half?

I haven’t paid enough attention to these gems to even notice yet, but if Dragon, Lightning, and Star Gems are any precedent, it is probably intended to give half mana?

The star gems give full mana. That’s part of why it’s so confusing what is expected. Because some give more mana than others.

It seems to be giving full mana, as far as I can tell, which would fit “destroy”, if that’s what the description is going to be changed to. So, that seems right.

Will Lightning Gems ever be fixed? Since release, they destroy gems, but for only half mana.

They should be giving full mana since that’s what destroy is supposed to do.

Depends on whether Tempestus is on the enemy team 🤣
