Right? this was exactly my first thought. This has happened before.

As I see it, the exchanging of Genesis for something else can go one of two ways:

-Genesis converts to poetics, where 1 Genesis gives multiple poetics.
-Genesis converts to a new kind of tomestone. It takes more than 1 Genesis to give 1 new tomestone.

If it's the former, then I'm gonna spend my hoarded Genesis ASAP. If it's the latter, I'm gonna keep them...
Before it was 1 (tome):4(poes) or 1:5 ratio.
