first, we have a right to say whatever the hell we want, unless we're not american. dont tell US to shut up. second, Darenix's idea makes perfect sense. Crappy armor for silver, Better armor for gold.
Lol I left the game paused to go to the bathroom and when i came back, i found an award without doing anything.
Then i checked the awards menu an saw, i was supposed to do that.
example: You have one lvl 1 red gem, and 1 lvl 1 yellow one. You combine them to make a dual lvl 2 yellow-red. It hits an enemy. It does triple damage to the enemy it was already hitting, and it still splashes, but for normal damage to the enemies around it.
