the 24 hour timer on glowing crystals is a fairly annoying and pointless timegate which blocks players from crafting more than 10-12 max enchanted items per day unless they want to beg/buy vervadium from other players. its a mechanic that limits player potential and growth down to a 24 hour timer. when already rng is doing a fine enough job for us.
now if we had an option to buy a randomly rolled guaranteed legendary item for 3 days worth of vervadium I would not mind this 24 hour timer at all. but because we are limited to 12 attempts at a rng roll for a max enchanted item each day without ever the guarantee that we will get the piece of gear we are striving for the entire system quickly becomes pointless. even now I am considering pissing off quite of few of the people who buy vervadium by raising price for it 4x just so I can get my own gear within a couple weeks.
if past experience is any indication it is probably gonna take around 250-300 vervadium in order to make my 5 max enchanted pieces of gear, which is anywhere between 21-25 days straight of farming glowing crystals on cooldown. in the old system you could at least farm w/e you wanted to get maximized sardonyx or obsidian but now we are blocked by a silly timer.
