Re: What could we steal from other fantasy games..
You could also institute a limit on the cost of the item based on your construction research.
Say that arrow fend and invulnerability for a chest slot item cost 50 gems (or something like that). For each level of construction you research you'd be getting access to a new "max cap" for the amount of gems in a given item you want to forge.
Level 2 might open up 10 gem items, level 3 15 gems items, level 4 20 gems, level 5 25, and level 9 would remove the cap entirely.
