Gems

Socket gems with random stat rolls for god roll hunting.

Gems are crystallized power sources that socket into equipment. Each gem randomly rolls ONE stat from its category, creating exciting double-RNG for god roll hunting.


How Gems Work

  1. Get a gem (Anguish, Void, or Light)
  2. Stat rolls randomly from that gem's pool
  3. Value rolls within ±20% range
  4. Socket it into any equipment with an empty socket

Note

Two layers of RNG: which stat you get AND how good that stat rolls.

Socketing Mechanics

  • Socketing: Insert gems into any empty socket
  • Permanent: Once socketed, gems cannot be removed normally
  • Removal: Only a Hand of Blacksmith can remove a socketed gem
  • On Removal: The gem is destroyed, but the item remains intact

Warning

Gems are permanent once socketed. Using a Hand of Blacksmith removes the gem (destroying it) to free the socket for a new gem.


Gem of Anguish

Crystallized rage of the Titans - raw destructive power.

Randomly rolls ONE stat:

Possible StatValue Range
Physical Attack+15-21
Magic Attack+18-27
Crit Chance %+1-1.5
Crit Damage %+2.5-4
Attack Speed %+1.4-2.1

God Roll Example

Gem of Anguish
├── Stat: Crit Chance % (lucky roll!)
└── Value: +1.5% (max!)

Average Roll Example

Gem of Anguish
├── Stat: Physical Attack
└── Value: +18 (mid-range)

Lore

The Anguish was the chaotic energy unleashed when the Titans fell. Mages learned to stabilize fragments of this power into gems. Each one pulses with barely contained destruction - perfect for those who seek to unleash devastation upon their enemies.


Gem of Void

A shard of emptiness that absorbs harm - the Void Titan's gift.

Randomly rolls ONE stat:

Possible StatValue Range
Physical Defense+15-21
Magic Resistance+15-21
Max HP+75-105

God Roll Example

Gem of Void
├── Stat: Max HP (great for any build!)
└── Value: +105 (max!)

Average Roll Example

Gem of Void
├── Stat: Physical Defense
└── Value: +18 (mid-range)

Lore

When the Void Titan was sealed, fragments of its essence scattered across Arcania. These gems contain pure emptiness - they absorb incoming harm into nothingness. Tanks and frontline fighters prize them for the protection they offer.


Gem of Light

A sliver of divine light - Anias's radiance sustains and empowers.

Randomly rolls ONE stat:

Possible StatValue Range
Max Mana+60-84
HP Regen+2-3
Mana Regen+1.5-2.2
Movement Speed %+1.4-2.1

God Roll Example

Gem of Light
├── Stat: Movement Speed % (mobility!)
└── Value: +2.1% (max!)

Average Roll Example

Gem of Light
├── Stat: Max Mana
└── Value: +72 (mid-range)

Lore

The Spark of Light is Anias's divine essence, distributed throughout the mortal realm. These gems capture slivers of that radiance - they sustain life, restore magical reserves, and quicken movement. Healers and support classes treasure them.

Build Strategies

Physical DPS

  • Farm Gems of Anguish hoping for Crit Chance/Crit Damage
  • Physical Attack and Attack Speed are good consolation rolls
  • Magic Attack roll = bad luck, try again

Magic DPS

  • Farm Gems of Anguish hoping for Magic Attack
  • Attack Speed is universally good
  • Physical Attack roll = bad luck for mages

Tank

  • Farm Gems of Void - all 3 stats are useful
  • Max HP is universally good
  • Match defense type to content (Physical vs Magic)

Healer/Support

  • Mix of Gems of Light for mana sustain
  • Gems of Void for survivability
  • Mana Regen and Max Mana are ideal rolls

Speed Build

  • Farm Gems of Light hoping for Movement Speed
  • Attack Speed from Gems of Anguish also helps
  • Great for farming and PvP mobility

Removing Gems

Once socketed, gems cannot be removed by normal means. The only way to free a socket is using a Hand of Blacksmith.

ActionResult
Use Hand of BlacksmithSocket becomes empty
GemDestroyed
EquipmentRemains intact

This allows you to replace a bad gem roll with a better one. The Hand of Blacksmith is consumed in the process.
