Buget Empower leveling

It does (tested).

A Haku staff filled with empower/enhances in the weapon slot is super useful if you're trying to level them up and sell them.

Enlighten at this point should just be removed from the game or at least reworked.

Its just terrible. Almost always will another gem be a more optimal solution than enlighten. Why level 2 gems faster if you could level 3.

Enlighten would become marginally better like 1.4% better, in a 6 link if its a lvl 4 or higher enlighten with 5 active gems linked to it.

In every other combination another gem of the kind you want to level would be better.

Vaaling at level 1 for 4%... Sick waste.

Standard prices 40+ex for level 4, 4ex for level 3. Not sure how it will go in torment. You can't get level 4 if you don't wait for it to be level 3 to vaal it.

If you ever aim to reach level 3 with that gem, you just lost 5ex of value right there (assuming 15% win on +1 which is totally a random estimate).

Small advice there:
trash this one and level another one...

Not denying that this works, but I thought that this kind of thing wasn't meant to work. I vaguely remember GGG changing things so that you couldn't gain benefit from things you don't have equipped (snapshotting).
