Why gate the new gems behind lab?
less reason to play lab ahaha.

For the 344th time: Awesome idea, disastrous implementation.
How many times have they tried to make lab "interesting" and "rewarding"? Quite a few. Still, is probably the most hated mechanic in the game. When are they going to see that it doesn't matter what they add as reward; the gameplay is still shit - and it will always be shit. Subjective, yes, but still. Probably the most interesting change to the game in years, made into a bad thing by their implementation. Fuck me this was disappointing. Sometimes, just sometimes, you should really consider adapting to the world, instead of demanding that the world adapts to you.

A lot of people played TotA because of the rewards, even though they didn't care for the mechanic. I guess the experiment is to see how rich the cheese has to be to get the rats to run the maze. ='[.]'=

Horrible idea! i think they should've gated in the maps like fight a map boss and it drops a font or something to upgrade the gems.

Ohman... time to get the fastest build for lab running then

Kinda wish they didn't just gate the gems to lab tho :S

I really don't see why everybody detests Lab so much. Is it simply because Religion of Zoom doesn't work in the Lab?
Regardless. I absolutely goddamn loathe Heist and yet nobody ever seemed to complain that alt quality gems were locked exclusively behind Heist. They just made a screaming profit selling the things for dramatically inflated prices because Heist is agonizing to run. At least with transfigured gems sourced from the Labyrinth rather than Heist, the mechanic is in the core game now. And people who truly detest the Labyrinth can do what people who truly detested Heist had to do beforew - buy the things at a ludicrous markup, or play builds that don't need them. | |
At least they changed Labyrinth to be less of a gamble since you put in the specific gem you want to change rather than running lab and just randomly hoping for a good Helmet Enchant.

I couldn't be happier to see the lab enchants gone and replaced with something interesting that I want to go get. While I generally enjoy labs, after Ascendancies, I didn't generally feel like I had much reason to go into them, but now I likely do.
