    Default Too much fun in Cove, Devs please help.

    Decided to make a eternal flask of rum heal pot in cove.

    Oh drat, running the cove at level 30 gives gems that it doesn't even use. Oh great, I can download the gems. How many clicks does it take to get to the center of a rum pot... 1...2...3...

    clicks to downgrade gems for each level.
    760 x 2
    545 x 2
    365 x 2
    205 x 2
    75 x 2
    30 x 2
    ______
    3960

    How long does that take? Well over an hour and half while you are watching a movie and clicking continuously... (cove lag included)

    PLEASE change the turn in rate to at least 10 gem x for 10 gem y... This is ridiculous... Has to be a better way to use any gem to make these.

    hmmm should i make some low level bucklers for TR'ing? 1...2...3...

    They know this for years and don´t want to Change it. Count every gem-downgrade a 2 seconds time. Multiply by 4000, divide by 60. You loose 2h of time for doing that. Have you cordovan or sev ever done that? And did you liked it?
    Why-oh-why don´t we get this changed? I mean ... a simple slider, please ... please ... It even ruins my mouse-button even more and i have to spend Money on a new one besides spending it on TP, right?

    Gems add an unnecessary gating system, since we CAN downgrade at a cost of mental health id advise just allow us:

    A: to farm low tier gems on high level toons
    B: buy the fully upgd item for top tier gems
    C: allow us to bulk downgrade x100s at least.

    But all this is rocket science especially when noone cares at all .

    I agree this needs to be fixed.

    But, in the mean time I use an autoclicker to do the clicks for me. The last I checked, there are several free ones available for download on CNET. With my connection, I can set it to click on the trade button every 750 milliseconds (3/4 of a second). I just set it to run whenever I am going AFK for more than a couple of minutes.

    It's not a great answer, but its better than wearing out your mouse and getting carpal tunnel.

    Ever since Crystal Cove first came out, this request has been asked - begged even, but no response. It's outrageous that we have to click through this terribly implemented system.

    And it's not just making bottles of rum, but also turning in map pieces. And the bags are working terribly - when whatever you're making checks for ingredients, it seems to use whatever bag has your lowest number of ingredients, so you have to sort through your bags to make everything work. And then do it again as the quantities change.

    CC is a frustrating mess. For players without some basic good equipment, it's a great chance - until they try to make the equipment. For others, it's simply to be avoided.
