That vocations sounds cool, as soon as I read about it I thought... uhmm a powerful vocation from the beginning? I dont like it, but if you have to finish some questline then I'll go with it.
I also like the new gems, pretty cool addition and even if is 0.000001 loot rate to get one of them. That would make them special.
If what I've heard about so many new areas and quests added is true, then great job.
And please don't give up because of people's comments, there will always be criticism out there, but remember that even though a comment/critique can be harsh on you, you should take it the right way and try to make the best you can to fix "the problem"; after all the players decide whether to make this ot popular or just throw it to the garbage.
