By the end of the last retail pack they were cheaper gems than even the 3x happy hour. Something to keep in mind for the next set! Also Hades8840, not sure how long you have been out of the game but there's now a 100% free gem happy hour at least once a month towards the end. I expect we will get another retail pack in the coming months, no doubt for Christmas if they have any sense.
