Overview

Gemstones are powerful character-boosting artifacts that creatures in Ascension hunting areas can drop upon being looted by characters who have defeated the wyrm and completed the ensuing quest. Gemstones can be equipped through the GEM interface, starting with one equipment slot upon completing the quest and upgrading to as many as five slots through currently unknown means.

A Gemstone generates with up to three properties, each categorized as common, regional, rare, or legendary.

Properties Qualities
First Property Common or Regional
Second Property Common, Regional or Rare
Third Property Legendary

The first property can only be common or regional. If it generates with a second property, that property can be common, regional, or rare. The third property can only be legendary and only has a chance to generate on the Gemstone if that Gemstone's second property is rare.

  • Players may only equip one Gemstone with a legendary property at a time.

Ultimately, characters maximizing all five slots of the Gemstone system may have a maximum of 11 equipped properties: one Gemstone will have a common/regional property, a common/regional/rare property, and a legendary property while the other four Gemstones will have a common/regional and a common/regional/rare property.

Properties Qualities
1st Gemstone Common/Regional plus Common/Regional/Rare plus Legendary
2nd Gemstone Common/Regional plus Common/Regional
3rd Gemstone Common/Regional plus Common/Regional
4th Gemstone Common/Regional plus Common/Regional
5th Gemstone Common/Regional plus Common/Regional
