How to Craft Epic Gems in 6.2

Recommended Posts

12626-how-to-craft-epic-gems-in-62.jpg

Epic Gems return to World of Warcraft with Patch 6.2 and will require visiting an NPC in Tanaan Jungle every time you need to craft one of them. Designed as upgrades over the Greater Taladites, these Immaculate Taladite gems give you +75 of a secondary stat (up from +50 for the Greater Taladites). This short guide will explain to you how these new gems can be unlocked and crafted.


Everything starts with Gems of the Apexis, which you can pick up in your Garrison when Patch 6.2 hits. This quest leads you to Aktar's Post in Tanaan Jungle, where you will receive a few follow-up quests to unlock the Apexis Gemcutter. The last quest requires you to turn in 1,000 inv_apexis_draenor.jpgApexis Crystal. After you are done, the Apexis Gemcutter will remain in Aktar's Post, where you can visit it whenever you need gems to be cut.
 

Unlocking the Gems


Initially, you can only craft inv_jewelcrafting_immactaladite_green.jpImmaculate Versatility Taladites, the other gems being locked. To unlock a gem, you need to find the appropriate Gemcutter Module and use it in proximity of the Apexis Gemcutter. In the list below, we detail how to obtain all of the Gemcutter Modules.

Crafting the Gems


Each gem requires the same mats to craft: 100 inv_jewelcrafting_taladitecrystal.jpgTaladite Crystal, 15 spell_yorsahj_bloodboil_green.jpgFelblight, and the corresponding Greater Taladite gem. Felblight is a new reagent that can be acquired in Tanaan Jungle while gathering, mining, skinning, and fishing.
 
The total cost of each gem can be found below.

      This is a particularly hilarious one, as it seems the Diablo event Treasure Goblins don't just jump out of portals, they also send players into them! While players have been farming them constantly, the goblins have had enough and are now using next-level tactics to get rid of as many players as possible.
      This particular one, caught by MemeStarKeem (or rather, the goblin caught them), used the players' desire for the mount/cosmetics and lured them right on top of one of the capital city portals!

      This is exactly the kind of stuff that creates memories that will stay with you for years and years, and is one of the reasons events like these are just great.

      Here's the Mythic+ Tier List for the fourth week of Dragonflight Season 2!
      DISCLAIMER
      The following post is based on statistics provided by Subcreation, a website that gathers various Mythic+ data from live servers. Please note that the tier list is biased toward the top end because it only looks at the top 100 keys per dungeon per affix and ignores keys below +16 and untimed runs.
      For the reasons mentioned above, the data presented here will always differ from the Mythic Tier Lists maintained by Petko.
      Data Reliability
      The data used in the post comes from Subcreation, a site maintained by Alcaras. Subcreation provides statistical analysis of Mythic+ dungeons, raids, and PvP in Shadowlands, and the data is provided via the Warcraft Logs API and Raider.io. If you'd like to support Subcreation, you can check out their Patreon.
      How the Data is Calculated
      The site looks at the top 100 keys per dungeon per affix across all regions and examines their raider.io scores. For each dungeon and specialization, the site takes the lower bound of a 95% confidence interval of the top 100 runs for each specialization. The site then averages these lower bounds, one per dungeon, to get an overall average lower bound for each spec, which is finally used to create the tier list.
      The site takes the lower bounds of the 95% confidence interval calculated and then clusters them into 6 buckets using the Ckmeans algorithm. You can find more information by reading the site's FAQ.
      Tanks, Healers, Melee, and Ranged are all on the same scale. They're just shown separately for easier comparison across roles.
      Mythic+ Tier List for Dragonflight Season 2 Week 4
      The specs are ranked based on their lb_ci which stands for the lower bound of a 95% confidence interval. If a certain tier is missing, it's not occupied by any specialization.
      The following tier list is for this week's affixes: Fortified, Afflicted, Raging.
      The images from Subcreation are currently experiencing some issues as classes are listed in the incorrect order, but you will find the correct order in text format.

      Dawn of the Infinite megadungeon is currently dropping non-upgradable item level 421 loot on the 10.1.5 PTR.
      Dawn of the Infinite megadungeon became available for testing this week and content creator MrGM confirmed on Twitter item drops have Item Level 421. As you can see in the image, the drop was a trinket (Mirror of Fractured Tomorrows) with no upgrade ranks. 
      We're not sure if it's intended because loot tables for the dungeon haven't been implemented yet, but for now, the items cannot be upgraded on the PTR with the new system.
      Placeholder for tweet 1664278084055617543 For comparison, Mythic+ Dungeons drop Item Level 402 Veteran loot that can be upgraded to Item Level 424.

      The candy bucket can be equipped in the Off-Hand Slot.


      Patch 10.1.5 brings a revamp to the Headless Horseman encounter inside Scarlet Monastery, but we don't have any details beyond that.
