arlier this week, we wrapped up 
In response to the valuable input and suggestions we received, we implemented a lot of changes during the test period. The release of the update is approaching, so here is an overview of important adjustments we made to enhance the new features.
Wheel of Destiny: Gem Atelier
- Each Mod slot on a gem now has its own pool of possible Mod types:
- Mod slot 1: stats (HP, mana, capacity, mitigation multiplier), basic resistances (fire, earth, energy, ice) or stat + basic resistance (e.g. HP + fire resistance).
- Mod slot 2: resistances (basic resistances, holy, death, physical, mana drain, life drain).
- Mod slot 3: supreme Mods (critical extra damage, life leech, mana leech, dodge, augments, revelation mastery).
- Based on feedback, we made numerous changes to Mods. To name a few:
- Supreme Mods were buffed considerably; for example, augments granting critical extra damage for a specific spell now give 8% critical extra damage instead of 2%.
- Values of stat Mods were doubled.
- Replaced Familar augments on Mods with augments for specific spell cooldowns.
- Removed Mods with stat combinations (e.g. HP + Capacity).
- You can now switch the domain affinity of a gem clockwise for gold.
- We also implemented UI and quality-of life-improvements, for example:
- Active Mods are now displayed with their icon in the wheel.
- The gem limit was increased from 90 to 225. The number of gems you have is also shown.
- The possibility to lock a gem and a corresponding display filter were added. A locked gem cannot be destroyed.
- Prices for revealing gems (lesser/regular/greater) and switching their domain:
- Reveal: 125k/1kk/6kk gold.
- Switch Domain: 125k/250k/500k gold.
- To ensure that there is a decent supply of gems in the weeks following the update release, we will boost their availability by doubling their drop chances till January 16, server save.
- Exaltation Forge: We significantly increased the chance to trigger the Transcendence effect for each tier. The chance on tier 5, for example, was raised from 0.3% to 0.86%.
- Managed Container Extension: If you unequip an item it is now put into the container you have selected for the item's category in the "Obtain" section, e.g. an armor goes into the backpack you have selected for obtained armors.
- We also tweaked the stats of new equipment pieces, refined the new quests and balanced the new hunting grounds and bosses based on your feedback and our evaluations.
We would like thank to all players who contributed during the test by trying out the new contents and by sharing their experiences and thoughts with us. Your efforts and dedication helped us to improve the update and we are looking forward to its release.
