Gems

As you fight creatures, you may come across a text that resembles...  You find a gem! This means that you have found a gem at random. Depending on the zone, it could be a grade 1 gem (*), grade 2 gem (**), grade 3 gem (***), or a grade 4 gem (****). Gems' abilities vary with each different type, as well as its effect, as determined by its grade.

The list of gems is found below, along with its effects, and its change in your stats.

If you wish, they may smash gems at the Equipment Shop for 10,000 gold per grade, or sell them in Sales chat for more gold.

Enchanting Gems
Gems are only effective if they are enchanted into your equipment. In their original state, all normal equipment lower than item class 15 only have one gem slot, while all equipment item class 15 or higher, all shadow items, and all mystic items have two gem slots. Items are enchantable with gems at all magic shops, free of charge.

Disenchanting Gems
Items can be disenchanted at the cost of 100,000 gold per gem at any of the Temples. If you have two gems in the item, you will need to disenchant twice. Each time, you have a 30% chance of losing the gem and keeping the item, 30% of losing the item and keeping the gem, and 40% of keeping both. Note that if you are trying to disenchant an item with more than one gem in it and you lose the item as a result of disenchantment, you will receive the other gem.

Gem Effects in Items
Gems are only effective when enchanted into items. Gem effects are calculated from the left gemslot to the right gemslot, Right Hand, Left Hand, Armour, Spell 1, and Spell 2. 1. The percentage of stats is taken from your opponent and added to yours, dependent on the lower stat in question between you and your opponent.

2. Life and Vitality are two separate values. Vitality is the maximum amount of Life you can have, while Life displays your current health.

To be noted, anything that gives life each round is added to your total life before the actual attacks have been made then the damage is done so what you are left with is your ending health after the round.

Jasper is one of 5 high tier gems, which have a 2% chance of dropping.
