Crafting - all random?

[Jugg3rV]

I was trying to get some runes updated but most of the time they just upgrade to a higher tier but getting their stats rerolled.
I just was lucky ONCE to get an elemental upgraded to its higher tier with same stats.
Trying to farm enough runes to test it, but i feel its near to impossible to get 3 of the same kind.

Any thoughts on that?

Its random chance, i have a lot runes with the same stats and they have changed to different stats and some have stayed. what i have found is that if you pick, lets say same element like 'fire' for the 3 slots, it is guarantee you will get a 'fire' element in return, choose random elements you will get a random type of element depending on what you put in, example if i put in 'fire', 'toxic' and 'ice', i will get any of those in return. Kinda how i see it working.

Crafting is random ! Sadly, which makes it pointles!

I just crafted 3 Immense Aspects together (increase dmg radius) and got
1 substance of haste (Fire rate increase).

That means crafting is just naother fancy way of getting rid of white gems ... there is no way to create the weapon you like with the gems you need, but to grind for them ...

Well, at least with crafting you'll know you'll at least get a certain quality gem (blues to gold/orange, gold to orange).

When you've gathered tons, it's easier to get a decent one out of crafting, than it is to grind for them.

Crafting isn't all random if putting in the recipient two upgrades of the same effect, like yellow turrets and adding the third upgrade to lower the miss rate will give a legendary turret upgrade.

I hope they change it to not be random soon. It'd be nice to have a controlable, yet pricy, way to get gems you want.

I've noticed that the level of the resulting gem also seems to be about an average of all the gems you put in, unless it gets color-upgraded. So it will always be lower quality than the best orange gem you put in.

Nope, the game already already restrict to use different colors.

crafting 3 elemental gems of the same type will always give you same elemental type out of it plus rarity

2 to 3 of same kind in the recipient will give a better of that kind.
Example: Adding two turrets upgrades + one to lower miss rate = a better turret upgrade.
Isn't exactly needed to insert three of the same kind.

You're lying. I just combined two HP on enemy kill gems and the result was a movement speed + damage to small enemies gem.

Crafting is random.

and this is why I use my strategy of saving up a ridiculous amount of legendary gems until I get a certain amount, so i'll have more gems to play around with and have increased chances at getting the ones I want (and need)
