more gems more durable the body will be, a variable like this can be used in a wide range of situations. Yeah, but clearly that will have some major effects in the ending or endgame, it's a collectible you have to go out of your way to get.

But the purple flame is a reward for reaching the endgame basically, not the same thing at all, I think I can also see your point, but with DoW and TLS having such similar themes I don't feel shining swords would take such a background role as crafting material for equipment, specially since combat is neither a major part of the game or particulary difficult.
