Hi!

Can anyone tell me if there are Malachite Gems to be found in FoV for additional level 10 enchantments? I understand that there is new armor to be found, so I would hope that they include the gems to equip the new sets with level 10 enchants.

I am also curious about item rarity. Do you continue to find Epic and Unique quality items after transitioning to Flames of Vengeance from Ego Draconis? There are so few Unique quality items at the end of Ego Draconis, I am hoping that they continue to drop in the expansion. Can anyone verify that?

Thank you!

Yes you can get additional malachite gems in FOV part.
Someone posted some clues on the forum recently. I can't find the post right away but I think a little search on malachite will do.

And there are some uniques in FOV.
But not such a big amount, I think the same amount as ED, maybe a bit more but do not expect dozens.

If a quest reward contains 1 skill book, I save before I turn in the quest and reload until I get at least 1 Malachite Gem. If the quest reward contains more than 1 skill book, I save/reload until I get 5 malachite Gems. You should also save/reload before approaching Malachite ores. Make sure you save at least 15-20 feet away from the ore.


I'd like to close by quoting Bellegar's famous last rhyme:

"Cursed be the mother that bred thee!
The wench must have been a hell-spawned banshee!"

Thanks for the response Shaver, and on my other posts as well. I've been saving in ED when approaching Malachite Ore Veins and re-loading until I get at least 2, and it sounds as if the same general strategy continues in FoV.

Since there is no real game guide out for FoV yet, I suppose I'll just save before each quest turn-in. If I understand you correctly, there will be one skill book available in the quest reward screen, which indicates that if you re-load you should be able to find a Malachite Gem as a reward, but if more skill books are offered, you can re-load until you get a reward of 5 gems? Sweet.


PS: Thank you for your response as well Imarion.
