TOPIC | Gem Bonus & Cycled Item Return
Hopefully I can actually get a Wildclaw scroll this time! Been wanting to get one for ages but never can spare the money for gems when it rolls around.

A very small number of forum warnings for baiting/trolling others and posting low effort spam will be going out shortly. These messages are unrelated to the posts referenced above.

Since the thread is unlocked, I definitely want to mention that this new schedule needs to be displayed somewhere. It would help awareness a ton more if people can see it somewhere outside of announcements and Dev Tracker.
And as for cycling old items (or any gem items), I really suggest to have a plan for notices next time. It can really hurt trust without any notice prior to their status (permanent, cycling, or retired). I know decisions can be changed like eye vials for example, and that’s okay. Just notify people of these decisions. It will really help in the long run and allow for feedback.

Appreciate the change and planned cycle in May of next year. I feel like this is a good choice and basically solves most of the problem IMO. So thank you for that, I think this choice will go a long ways in people's trust.

Please PM if I missed your ping.
Having to wait a year (or, yes, half a year) to buy some seemingly random items doesn't make them feel fresh or exciting or more luxe, it's just an annoyance. They're not holiday items. The one good feature about the gem marketplace vs. the treasure one is that if you want something from it, you don't have to worry about whether it'll be in stock or not.
Am I going to pick up the items I was waiting for? Yeah, because I already had the gems on hand. Am I feeling excited about their return? No, just a disgruntled sense of 'ugh, finally'. Getting those items would have been more enjoyable if I was able to do it when I originally wanted them. If anything, this practice makes me appreciate them less--and in some cases the end result is me not buying the thing.
It makes sense for things like NotN items and the seasonal sphinxes to cycle in and out; there's an intuitive, thematic reason. This just feels arbitrary.

I’m very happy about the change, but I agree that it needs to be posted somewhere. Honestly I would have preferred that you guys stop cycling altogether. There are better ways to make money that won’t upset the player base the way cycling does.
