For anyone with questions about the Gems(cash shop) ask them here. I'm currently playing the beta and recording alot of footage. I'll answer any questions you have and show you how things are laid out as of right now. Hopefully this will help to outline somethings for everyone so theres not as much animosity over the cash shop.

one of the first things people should be aware of is that its now positive that you can gain mystic keys ingame.. I myself got one from one of my personal story quests. There were others that claimed they got some from the Shadow behemoth (I didn't, but it's all random).

I got two mystic keys. One from the story quest and one randomly dropped. The mystic chest gives you nothing absolutely spectacular. But it is still cool stuff. It gives you a random tool, a random tonic(to change you into a monster ) and gives you a random buff as well. So nothing game changing. The buff is most likely something like swiftness or health regen, health regen is usually something like 19 health per second. If youve got 30,000hp 19 health per second doesnt help you much.

I had one mystic key drop in game. Shortly later, I had a chest drop. OK, sweet. Opened the chest... got another key (plus three transforming potions and an exp boost for 1 hr).
