Gemstones, Coins & Money

How about making it a little more reasonable to be able to find gemstones.

I am stuck on level 6 right now trying to save up enough money to buy a gemstone, since I have never gotten one hunting. The on top of that yet, when I get close to the amount to buy a gemstone, the lowest price on the gemstones sky rockets.

Presently, I have enough prestige to get past level 7 and I am STILL STUCK ON LEVEL 6, because of the need of this dam gemstone.....

Only daily gifts, I would suggest giving a couple coins at least every other day or so here. Throw us a bone for crying out loud.

Finally, is there any other way to accumulate money? I have been hunting, which doesnt turn out much, and in quite a few cases, I hunt for 6 - 8 hours, and then get NOTHING!!!! With my money, I am accumulating resources, and then turning around and selling them, but to build up a brankroll, this is goign to take FOREVER!!!!!!!!!!

First off you need to Settle Down:/ First to get a good hunt you need 2500+ inf or 600+ horses. Second learn to watch the market more if you watch enough you can get a gemstone at NPC pricing also if your nice enough you might can get one from a larger player on your server! Just be patent!:)

and in quite a few cases, I hunt for 6 - 8 hours, and then get NOTHING!!!!

that happens because there might have been someone else hunting in that oasis you picked before you. try selecting different oasis each time you hunt.

lol yea my first three weeks of playing i hunted at the same oasis and got nothing.. now i hunt everywhere!

Join alliances that offer you cheap treasure and if you register your facebook if you have one you get better daily gifts.

be lucky gemstones are some of the least of your treasure problems

He is a little crazy, but he has a point. There should be more of some things (like gems) and less of others (nuggets)

lvl 6 and pres for 7 lol. ... my freind was 11 or 12 before he got a gemstone he also started game alone so ehh what ever.

I find this kind of ridiculous. It NEEDS to be hard to get gems. I saved up for a week and guess what, I got one! If you're in a newer server, gems should be a lot easier to get than in an old one. If not, save up and ask on chat frequently. If you focus all money on getting the gem, you will get it soon. Just don't spend on random stuff...

It doesn't take too long to get a gem. Just word harder make more inf/cav for hunting. I've hunted for 3 hours and got 3k money many of times.
Here is a fast way: get L9 oases and make cats/sell 100k of the res every now and then. When you get enough cats you should be able to farm forts easily. Just farm them and keep selling.
Also ask members in your alliance for help. Chances are that a gem is cheap for them. Also stay in market. People sell gems for npc price for other players. You can snag them! :3
