Aether-Tech Master meta gems are unobtainable

In Blades Edge there is a event that happens every few hours with the skyguard faction where they attempt to assault a aether forge near Bash’ir landing. If this event is successful the Aether-Tech master will spawn and sell two meta gems. Potent Unstable Diamond and Imbued Unstable Diamond. These gems are BoP and pretty much exclusively for PVP as they boast stun resistance.

As a warlock the Imbued Unstable Diamond is my PVP BIS meta gem. However after checking daily for 3 months I have never once seen him spawned nor have I been able to get a group together for this obscure event for these obscure rewards that are only good for some classes in a niche setting.

I would like to petition those at blizzard to simply move the items he sells to the Sha’tari Skyguard or Ogri’la rep vendor so that they are actually obtainable.

cant you just pick a weaker gem instead? what’s everyone else in the server doing about it?

I mean you can, but that’s just a suboptimal solution. Would be nice if it was possible to actually obtain the gem that is in the game.

yes but your suggestion is to develop around the abnormal process, thus making it… normal process. wouldn’t reporting this for bugfix instead be better?

That event has been broken since launch. The guy just stands there at the forge and never finishes. I’d suggest you just use the STA meta like I do on my warlock.

Edit: You can match blue+red with SP/STA gems.

I have been using the stun resist stam meta, however once you get the S3 offhand you no longer need 3 blue gems for spell pen so that gem is no longer recommended because you cannot activate it using an optimal gem pattern. Best is the one off of this guy, second best is the spell power and run speed with surefooted on boots.

Blizzard’s “solutions” for things have certainly been beyond abnormal, see Battle Chicken amongst a slew of others things left broken (Hyjal was barely tested on PTR and is still bugged half the time)

I havent had any issues with hyjal yet and nether has anyone i talked (maybe we are just lucky)

There is some issue with mount but there is not that many unlike is claimed above.

The main bugs that is annoying is one that can cause the waves to outright just reset taking 5 min to respawn the base mobs and starting again from wave 1 this bug was there on tbc and exists still on retail also it’s just rare. Given it being unfixed on retail even obv not a simple fix abs likly there code dosent allow for a practical fix.

The other major one being waves skipping it’s possible for some waves to simply not come to the point of I’ve seen logs of the boss comming on wave 2. This i can’t remember being there in og.

Otherwise only other real “bug” is that the silence of the world tree on archi is only 8 yards out not the 40 yards out from the water it was changed to be in og tbc really early on allowing for a cheese strat to be used abs the invis wall on one root is missing also allowing for a cheesy tank spot but that’s not a bug just the fight version we have being before those changes.

Even adding all those up is hardly being bugged half the time like was claimed. If so the bug report fourm would be full of reports vs them being quite rare which they are.

This bug recent? I’ve never had a problem getting the vendors to spawn with a small party to do the event for the first month or so.
