Someone honestly needs to re-fix the Gem Cauldron because 90 gems in 2 minutes is a little far fetched. its nearly impossible. like why cant it just be 1 gem or even 2 gems. dragon gems are hard enough as it is and just unlocking the mega stone option is hard enough. you lose a lot of gems to just make evolutionary stones. which isn't that bad if you actually need it. but needing 5 of every gem. People have a hard time getting dragon gems. so why make it so difficult. at least make it to where its 2 of every gem instead of 5. so its like 36 in a minute or so. instead of 90 gems in 2 minutes.
it would at least make the Gem cauldron fair. instead of nearly impossible.

i litterally can't. and i'd like to have the clickable option. but 90 gems in 2 mins. is outrageous. you'd have to have a gaming computer to be able to do that and have years experience. it should be fair for everyone. and equal.

I do like this idea but if you can do a gem a second (which will be hard to do due to laggy internet and PH lag etc.) then it can be doable but it requires patience and hard work. At least i think if you mess up you shouldn't lose your gems.

that would be a good idea too. because its hard enough as it is to get certain gems. like losing 2 dragon gems is losing 100k pd per time you play if you don't succeed.. it think it would be fair

without lag and using a school computer i can do it in like, 90-100 seconds. .w. the only time I ever have a problem with it is when the site is lagging and it takes too long to trigger the input.

An option could be instead of losing the gems, which is ridiculous if you almost finished losing five dragon and fairy gems, getting the cauldron on cooldown, maybe half the time the recipe you're trying, before you can try again.

thats a good idea. but i think the server needs fixing as well. with the lag that the site has.

I think something definitely needs to be done- probably either adding 30 seconds / a minute or lowering the # of Gems needed

I guess the given time is enough for boiling a mega stone. I can boil them easily with the seconds that are there. Also you can use the Odd Incense. Its hard for you maybe because of your internet speed.

Maybe. and yeah, Don't boil when there is a lag. You can loose your gems. That is why I boil when there is no lag and its perfect for me.

i've just refused to. because everyone is getting no where on the gem cauldron. like not everyone should have to have a gaming computer and gaming internet to get a mega stone from the gem cauldron. like think about the age variety of people that play. i've seen 12 year olds that play the game. Shouldn't it be fair enough to where they can achieve getting a mega stone from the gem cauldron. I honestly think that Atleast in some way lowering the standard of the Gem Cauldron would atleast fix it.

But really, 2 minutes should give you an excess of 30 seconds to put 90 gems in - which means that unless you find a bug (which is not mentioned in your posts) you should be completely fine.

I think it's way too difficult too. My internet is slow, and my computer is slow (It has a partially broken ram set, so I can only have 1 gig in it), and I've tried a few times to boil a leaf stone and don't even manage to get half way through the gems before my time is up. I've lost all my grass gems, along with the others, for nothing. Even charging and losing a dollar fee would be better, if the game was fair.

the entire problem is that the time counts down way faster than you can put the gems in the cauldron. the other problem is that Just cause theres extra time its a game thats unfair to people who are color blind. I'm half colorblind. and even with someone trying to help me last night Tell me what matched what i still lost with 15 gems to go. the time is not fair enough to people with disability's on the game.

When I first heard about the new Gem Cauldron update, I remember saying, "If they add a Mega Stone Recipe, I really hope it's expensive." Which I must say, I still stand by that. However, My only problem with this, is that there is the chance for the black boxes/keys to appear, instead of the Mega-Stone that you put all that time, effort, and probably PD into, only to find out you got another one of those items, for another legend summon you don't really need, and now you can't Mega-Evolve that new pokemon you just hatched.

So, while I do feel that the price of it is a little high, I feel that it is way too high for something you aren't even guaranteed to receive. Now, if the potential for those other items was taken from the Mega-Stone Recipe, I would be completely fine with the new system. All those gems in 90 seconds is still super hard though.

Again lost 100+ gems on the cauldron, it's is ridiculous, at least on the old one you would lose just 18 gems. Something seriously need to be done here, I won't use it anymore and i'm even thinking of stopping playing pokeheroes because of this, It's frustrating losing so easily the gems you took so much time and pd to get.

I fully support this and I think this should be taken under consideration because it is ridiculous that they expect so many gems in so little time so I would say lessen the amount of gems needed to make it more possible to complete the recipe and to save on wasting gems (especially with the cost of dragon gems)
