Just wondering if anything has been decided on how we are going to distribute epic gems come 4.3? Since they only drop from raids, very infrequently apparently, will they be bought for a new amount of ep? or just rolled for ? any thoughts or ideas?

Quote: | Epic gems will drop in the new raid in Normal and Heroic only. Each player gets a geode when a boss is killed which has a small chance to contain an epic gem, most will have rare gems. It is rare enough to take all of 4.3 to replace all of your red rare quality gems with red epic gems. |

I hope not, that would be utterly stupid.

I've never regretted having my main a Herb/Alch, and this news only reinforces that
It does make sense to more restrict the epic gems, things got a bit silly in Wrath with 'epic' gems being handed out like candy.

I had no issue with the Wrath epics, I thought it was fine. Epic Gems though totally destroyed the blue gem market, having them harder to get doesn't have as large rammifications as restricting epics does.
