> If there is one great positive I can state regarding Gem’s monetization is that they are extremely generous with their premium currency income for long time players.

I’d argue that Gems aren’t really much of a premium currency any longer, they’ve slowly shifted towards being the game currency to buy event energy with. The new premium currency that buys you premium content (like Chaos Orbs, old event weapons and campaign rewards) is money.
