Will we ever get better gem rewards?
The rewards at first were quite good, but now (at level 42) the rewards are quite awful. They're often repeats and I've already twice been offered the same gem in the same reward! Most of the gems are added cold support or auras that I have five of and the newest one that I took simply because I didn't have it already (knowing full well I'd never use) later dropped three times from mobs.
Can we get some more interesting reward gems out for the higher levels? And why are duelists being given so many bow reward gems? Rangers have much better bow passives... |

Rangers have the same bow passives as a Witch or Marauder. They just happen to start closer to them. As for skill gems.....I am less concerned because they will be adding more skills to the game. Who knows how they will reshuffle the skills when they do add the new ones. Certainly they aren't all going to be world drops.

" There are only a certain amount of gems available for each class that make sense for that class to receive (isn't going to do any good to offer ground slam to Witches), before the pool is ran and the rewards repeat. Chris has stated that he isn't pleased with the current reward system, and that it will be getting reworked as time permits. Duelists are offered bow skills the same reason Rangers are offered melee skills. "the premier Action RPG for hardcore gamers."

" I really hope this means we get higher level support as rewards as well. I really hate how people are trying to sell no-quality supports for GCP just because they are not quest rewards :( |

" Some gem are meant to be rare and need to be farmed outside the wild (mostly support). Those are either very powerful or niche for a certain build. For example: lesser multiple projectile is offered as a quest reward for ranger and shadow(?) but greater multiple projectile can only drop. Mana/life leach is another example of powerful support. Unviable build tester.
