How does gem crafting work?

[key]

simple question, how do gems work?

[ShadowJGaming]

You get a gem and put it in a crafting station with 5 reagents to create a jewel.

The gem determines the normal stats you get like defence, power, agility, etc while the reagents determine the secondary effect like air capacity, blocking power, swim speed, etc.

Tier 1 reagents give a 1-5% boost to secondary effect (3% more blocking power) while tier 2 give 6-10% more (10% more climbing speed).

Your jewelcrafting level determines the quality of the jewel which gives extra primary stat for example: crude diamond jewel gives 6 defence while a perfect jewel give 60 defence (not actual values). Jewelcrafting level increases when you make more jewels and you can upgrade jewels so you aren’t stuck with bad ones, you could turn a crude jewel into a fair one

so it’s just percentages? also do any gems give attack speed?

[ShadowJGaming]

Yes and yes.

Percentages stack so you could maybe get double swim speed, double passive energy regen, double block power, etc.

which gem gives attack speed?

[ShadowJGaming]

Sapphire and Tanzanite I think
