[Not a bug] Dwarves Ring and Royal 1

Hello to whom it may concern,

I noticed when Dwarven Ring activates and creates IV big gems, Royal 1 does not activate to create the V gems. Do you know if this is a huh or intended? I am hoping this is a bug because I have been developing this set for some time believing Dwarven Ring would trigger Royal 1. Pics attached below. Please advise at your earliest convenience, and thank you for your time.

Sincerely,

Typo: huh should have read big. My apologies.

I have always assumed that royal I only triggers for big gems created through matches. It doesn’t work neither with the Royal II set bonus nor with the savior helm ability, for example. However, it won’t be the first time that what we thought was intended behavior, was a bug instead. It would be great if it is the latter.

Waiting to hear back from one of the designers, as I thought it would only trigger on matches.

Update: While not a bug, it is something the team are going to look into further!

Thank you Jeto. I appreciate your time on the matter.

So, was there an adjustment made to dwarven ring as stated in the first post of thread? I started a match with a IX red gem for the first time ever. Did Dwarven Ring Activate due to the Khazdhuli 1 Set Bonus? If not, how did I get the IX red gem at start of match.

Was probably fixed with the patch, They don’t always list all the fixes in the patch notes.

It seems they have made it so that royal I set bonus now does apply to big gems created at the beginning of the battle, since royal II set bonus and savior helm now give me IV gems instead of III gems. Do you have firewalker necklace? That would explain the IX gem: dwarven ring creates a IV gem, it gets converted into a V gem due to the royal I bonus, and then is upgraded 4 times with the necklace.

Not in the update notes, but a great and welcome improvement.

It appears this did go out in 3.5 and was missed from the patch notes

Ah you are right higure. ‘Twas the firewalker necklace. I wonder does this apply during game as well or only at start of match?

If Dwarven ring activates during red gem match, does Royal 1 activate as well?

Should apply for the entirety of the match now. Every time a big red gem is created, there is a chance of it becoming 4 sizes larger with Firewalker’s necklace.

In short can firewalker necklace trigger with Royal1 the whole match ?

Same with dwarven ring and royal 1? Can they trigger throughout the match or only at start?

If set bonuses and overlapping gear perks work together that would be an awesome improvement.

Should be the entire match now.

I’ll get some information, once the rest of the team has started for the day

Thank you very much. This has me very interested in my builds now.

Oh also we’re the Diraqine fixes on this patch too?

I posted them into the patch notes…

As for this thread any items that increases the size of big gems created now triggers on big gems created through other spells/items, not just matches

Thank you for your diligence Jeto. You help us to connect with the game. We would struggle without you.
