Overview

Gemstones are powerful character-boosting artifacts that can be found in Ascension hunting areas after completing the wyrm quest. A total of five Gemstones can be equipped through the GEM (verb) interface. A Gemstone can have common, rare, and legendary properties, but only one legendary may be equipped at any given time. Overall, this gives you a maximum of 11 active properties (4 Gemstones with common and common/regional/rare properties and the 5th with common, common/regional/rare, and legendary properties).

Gemstone details on this page are a work in progress and provided as players discover them on the test server.
