[not a bug] Levelling up Withered Gems is not reducing the amount by 1

Platform, device version and operating system: Xbox

Screenshot or image:

What you were expecting to happen, and what actually happened:
After spending 50 star stones in the green astral constallation in “Withered Gems”, I was expecting the gems creation to show that it was reduced by TWO.

How often does this happen? When did it begin happening?
This is the first time I do it in this constallation. Doing the same thing in the purple constallation did decrease the gem conversion by 1 and the text correctly states that it is (4).

Steps to make it happen again
Spend 50 stones in “withered gems”

I think your just upping the percent chance of another not automatically getting another

[mrzombiechicken]

Hey Sinny. The percentage did not go up either as you can see from the screenshot.
The purple spire had the exact same upgrade description and it went up by +1. Checking the other constallations, if only the percentage is meant to go up it would not mention gems at all.

not sure if this is what you want to see but:

Hmmm. That is interesting. I really don’t wan tto waste any more star stones to test this out. The only reason I even used them in green is because they worked in purple. For comparison, have you leveled up your blighted change? If not, does the conversion say 3? I am pretty certain mine was 3 and changed to 4 after I leveled up. See below.

So mine is level 1/reduce 3 and now I should think about if I should get it to level 2

[mrzombiechicken]

Thanks. It makes sense then. It would’ve been really helpful if the game told you what the “next level” is.

Would you mind posting a link to that table? I’m too lazy to look.

speaking of which:

I just noticed the Dispel capstone says it has a chance to trigger at the start of the enemy turn, which I didn’t remember seeing that when the page was first made..

[Theoden]

That’s interesting. I’ve only ever seen it trigger at the start of the enemy’s turn. I also saw it trigger even before I had the capstone.

@devs "Working as intended."

@Jeto

This is marked as investigating, as in my original blog, from the information I was given from the team, it was intended to trigger on the start of the enemy turn, but obviously in-game it says when “my turn begins”

So, waiting to hear back from the devs which was not updated.
