They're about right, and shouldn't be changed. 29 32.95%
No, their utility is balanced by the research investment/cost in mage time/gem cost or whatever, especially if you want to wish (or other high level spell-spam.) 16 18.18%
No, they're no longer worth the investment/bother, especailly now tha I need nature/water mages to get them. 5 5.68%

Default Re: Poll: Is Clam Hording Too Good?

I think that the changes in Dom3 have made rampant clamming (ie: turning over your inventory in clams every turn ) a thing of the past. But they still have some effect on games.

However, there is one thing about clams that I dislike, and perhaps this is what irks other people: clams are not reported on the gem income graph and it can be a big surprise when some nation who has been a mid tier nation suddenly busts out with the highest level magics.

The solution to this problem seems pretty simple: include generated gems in the gem income graph.
