    Wow, just wowwwwwwwwwww......................

    Spend 110 Zen bought the blueprint from the zen store, refine it to a point, now I need profession resources to upgrade the thing, reallllllly, I mean come on. Ok went to the auction house to see what it cost........wowwwww.

    100 items (100k)
    1 Skinner leather working (118k)

    So that mean i need to spend the next 5 hours on my professions just to make enough to upgrade it to the next level.

    This event is so pathetic it is not even worth my time.

    Still no info about anything in the Deva package... what about the Astral Sea items? What are the stats? I tried to check on the AH if anyone was selling them, but there's none... are they BoP or they simply don't show on the AH?

    Were the people from QA even noticed about this stuff? Did anyone check anything before putting this on Live? I am dissapoint :|

    From in-game chat, they are BoP as well as companion only.

    I was kind of dissapointed when I realized that the toy has dissapeared after I used it :(

    The toy apparatus is a single-use item?

    Or it is a brilliant way to reward people who maxed out crafting professions on multiple characters! :)

    This astral deva is just a big rip off. Active bonus applies only to a companion, but tooltip does not say "Affects companion" like any other normal pet. It says below tho "Applies to your summoned companion while companion is active" but absence of "Affects companion" is REALLY confusing.

    from the article:

    "In addition to finding the Wondrous items via the creatures of the Forgotten Realms, a limited time profession task will be introduced which players can create the Rank 3 Sprocket along with lower tier Wondrous event items."

    It looks like every profession except leadership has a new task to create sprockets. It's a level 6 task that uses resources appropriate to each profession. Now watch as iron ore, wool, etc. skyrocket in price in the AH.

    wow those are horrible. checking the leatherworking you need
    100 pelts
    50 rock salt
    5 desert roses
    5 dark clovers.

    all this for 1 rank 3, 5 rank 2 and 2 rank 1 grommets.

    and it takes 2 hours.

    Nice job as usual. An event that makes the greedy even greedier without giving new players ANY hope....

    That's their motto apparently. New player? Too bad, nothing special for you.

    Gotcha, I thought you were referring to a new profession like the Summer and Winter festivals have.

    muhahahahaha! I have been hoarding random professions supplies for many months. Time to put them all on the AH at ridiculously high prices. :D

    I guess I am an evil AD hoarder now? :) Actually, I have never "played the AD market" but might do it this one time. . .

    Has anyone seen any Sprockets or Cogs drop from enemies,I have only seen grommets drop.The wondermaker of Gond says "They will sometimes drop various parts of gond's wonders, such as wondrous Grommet or a wondrous cog, or a wondrous sprocket."So just wanting to see if this is a bug because if we are only getting grommets from enemies,to get the doohickey we need to farm 20 hours about.
    So have any of you guys gotten anything other than grommets?

    The toy's tooltip really needs an update to point out that it's a single-use item. Found out the hard way.

    Definitely. I've only ever gone for Professions XP-Only and all those chests and skill nodes I've been opening for almost 18 months will finally pay-off. So many I have multiple maxed-out stacks of stuff. LOL

    you need other materials to refine the items? if you look at the picture on the news post it only shows the gond items. it does not show anything else.
