The solution is simple - fire and earth gems should simply be worth more gold per gem.

+1
And another +1.

Even just boosting them to +20/+15 (F/E) would be a start and wouldn't affect balance much either, although I think it would have to be more than that to really make it useful. And has been pointed out most of the fire/earth nations tend not to be that strong anyway.

I assume this can't be modded but would need to be patched?

I think a doubled revenue is a good solution.

30 for fire and 20 for earth gems would boost the earth/fire based nations early game, feature some master alchemist pretenders and will also be a possible money make option in middle/late game combined with alchemist stone (if needed).

Its far away for being too strong and would add some nice new semi strategies.
