Jewel Crafters Bundle

So this is the newest bundle from Wizard and I have to say it looks pretty interesting.

We have a new item generator in the form of the bountiful mine, apparently it has the chance to drop jewels which will be interesting though I have to question how high a level the jewels would be. It also seems to drop reagents used for crafting jewels, whether its just jewel related reagents or all of them I cant tell because its only existed for a few days now. (Given the name of this bundle I would assume it would be just jewel related ones)

The gear is interesting looking and has fairly decent stats for what it is. I think it falls between tier two and three Darkmoor gear trading pierce and accuracy for healing. I don't see anyone trading out their Malistare Darkmoor gear for Shard Warrior gear. It might be cool for stitching if you want to walk around looking like a piece of living rock candy . The chromatic blast item card makes me hope there is a treasure card or trainable version (Its basically a universal super charge which I think is awesome.)

I don't know what talents the pet has yet but it is a balance pet that also looks absolutely gorgeous with the coolest idle animation I have ever seen on anything so far.

The there is the mount, which has a 2% accuracy boost on it, I don't agree with having stats on mounts (they were literally the last purely cosmetic item a wizard could own) The boost probably wont have people absolutely screaming to have it but I guess it could be the absolute mildest of irritations in lower level pvp.

Oh No a whole TWO percent THE HORROR! *sarcasm*

I don't pvp so maybe two percent is a lot...but you can get just as much accuracy from a decent piece of gear and some accuracy tcs or something. I doubt it will be game breaking. Hopefully this wont become a common thing because the rat race for the best set up is already insane as it is without having to add mounts to the mix. I don't want to end up having to stitch mounts together because this tank of a mount has amazing stats but I don't like giant mounts or something like that

Ranting aside this whole thing is dye-able so yay for that. I like crystals so I might just get it for aesthetics alone (seriously if you look at my main house its crystal city) All in all good bundle, I'll probably buy it.
