Meaning I don't like your idea.

Another possible solution:
Instead of needing one particular gem for a pattern, allow two or three different ones per item. This way, you're maybe blocked for a week or two, but not for months. Speaking of being cockblocked, I still have a Wuoshi Scale for my bow... One bow recipe in 7 months of clearing EH weekly ftl.

You don't need 24 people sitting in the zone to kill the drake. Also, why not make the drake serve a purpose rather than standing around doing absolutely nothing except annoying people? Not to mention, need more gems now, just have some people kill it every now and then for an extra few gems! *gasp*.

What I meant was having people afk-sit around is about as difficult as killing the drake. What your suggestion ultimately results in is an enormously tedious event.
No difficulty + tediousness for loot is an already over-used concept in the game, see the new quest line in KP.
Having that drake drop a gem every time would be more of a bandaid to the cockblocking, not a fix.

cyrstilized phospherous are still not in game wtf are we paying SoE for?

Phara Dar has dropped my pattern set 3 times and no1 can get there pants made cause THERES NO FUCKING PHOSPHEROUS GEMS IN GAME!

Epitaphe · 12-18-2007, 11:09 AM

it s called progression just like EoF you ll get your pants for the exact anniversary of SD killing wuoshi the first time and getting the first class pants.
joke aside, this both retarded and not surprising at all from SOE....

I am with the crowd that believes the gems should be removed. Too many patterns sitting in our inventory and artificially blocking loot. There is no reason for having the gems other then this and the concept is truly stupid.

this gem is in game now
