Tisis.5391 Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 Really curious the design process behind it. Having Evergreen Lodestones and Mordrem lodestones but then making Mordrem Lodestones drop like candy while having no recipe that uses a significant amount seems insane.Mordrem Lodestones might be the lowest any lodestone in the game has ever gotten, I feel like there was some recipe that they intended to have use them that just never surfaced. What do you guys think is the reason they basically made this vendor trash? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Illconceived Was Na.9781 Posted October 21, 2017 Share Posted October 21, 2017 I speculate that:Griever and Marshal stats were intended to use Evergreen Lodestones & Eyes of Kormir (And maybe or especially for the associated trinkets.)This would have spiked demand for one new item and one... not really-plentiful-in-HoT one.This is why they were concerned about how Eye of Kormir prices sticking past the first day.For reasons unknown, the recipes were pulled at the last minute, resulting in this fine mess in which we find ourselves.(Even if it's not true, this is a more comforting thought than the alternative: they had no clue what they were getting into.)

MoarChaos.8320 Posted October 21, 2017 Share Posted October 21, 2017 There's no point playing with it for no reason. People can make this argument for any item they have a lot of. The item saying lodestone doesn't change anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hyper Cutter.9376 Posted October 22, 2017 Share Posted October 22, 2017 Anet's god-awful at balancing the usage of the lodestones, so you have some that are used for everything (charged) and some that are barely vendor price (mordrem, pile of essence).
