where is JC compensation for the nerf?

[thoukaia]

i cant find the blue post but i clearly remember what it said:

Dragon's Eyes have lost their prismatic quality. For compensation, we will be giving a yet to be decided number of Dalaran Jewelcrafting Awards.

can anyone who plays a JC on PTR confirm if this "compensation" has been given, or did blizz forget their promise?

[El]

they are buffing the stats on the gems themselves

[SylNHK]

Oh noes, I can't be lazy any more and actually have to think of where I put my Dragon's Eyes!!!!111!11! Big nurf!!!

But as already stated, they're buffing the stats of them just a bit.

[Ashimbo]

That's to compensate for the BS buff of epic gems.

I don't think they've announced anything further on the non-prismatic compensation.

[Kamani]

I don't think they should really give us any to be honest.

I mean, JC is pretty OP in it's current form

Yes, it is. However it still isn't fair that they would nerf it and make us spend hundreds of gold regemming. Nerfing it to fairness? That's fine. Making us PAY for that nerf? Not cool.

You haven't talked to Engineers about paying for their nerfs have you?

all i know is that i do remember reading about that nerf, im just curious as to why its not reflected on the official wordl of warcraft patchnotes for 3.2...

# Jewelcrafting

* Dragon's Eye gems stat bonuses increased.
* New recipes have been added for cutting epic gems and can be purchased using Dalaran Jewelcrafter's tokens.
* Icy Prism now has a chance of yielding an epic gem.
* Raw epic gems can be obtained via the following means:
o Prospecting Titanium Ore
o Alchemy transmutations
o Purchased with honor
o Purchased with Emblems of Heroism

they might not be giving out that unnecessary nerf. i mean cmon the gems themselves are in a "prismatic" category...it would be ridiculous for them to just strip us of that perk.

i'm confused what is the big jc nerf? I have dropped eng/mining for jc/bs since i can now put epic gems in each slot, get 3 jc supercuts, and make money from them both so i dont get the bitching at all.

[beanchild]

i remember a while back they said they would take away them prismatic part so we didn't get meta and socket bonuses without any thought that made these gems super op. there will be no buff to jc because of this.

I remember them saying something about giving JCs a few extra dragons eyes to compensate for resocketing.

[telemain]

When have engineers had to change around their enchants because of nerfs?

[beanchild]

you get an undetermined amount of jc tokens most likely 6 cause they're cheap

Hopefully more, I've got 12 Dragon's eyes in my gear sets atm which im going to have to regem

No one else in the history of the game has ever been compensated for a nerf to something like this.

See: Every lolrena-related Engineering nerf

Make you pay for what nerf? Dragon's Eyes are free through the daily tokens. I'll miss not having to pay attention to meta requirements, but I understand why they're doing it.

[peknoman]

i've heard you could get dust from titanium ore and then turn it for token

It will be like 3-6 tokens to compensate for having to move where you place your Dragon cuts on your gear. As for having to pay for a nerf, stfu. You get a daily worth a solid 100-125g a day. Were you one of those Mages who Nerdraged and threatened to quit after having spent 300g to regem after they nerfed the spellcasting haste meta?

Also, you are aware that you shouldn't get 'compensated' when being nerfed? You were already compensated by having an unbalanced advantage.

They aren't free you have to take the time to do the quests. Time = money. Even if I did go the "free" route, it'd take 9 days to re-gem my gear. Also, I'll need to buy blue gems to meet my meta requirements.
