I'm looking forward to seeing how will you top the mini-headhunter one. ;) In all seriousness, jewels are an amazing addition to the game. 177	Posted by toyotatundra on Apr 22, 2015, 11:00:49 PM Quote this Post

I'm especially looking at Atziri's Reign. That is the most worthless piece of shit jewel ever, and if it isn't buffed to ridiculousness, no one sane will literally ever use it. are you serious? That's one of hte most powerful items I've ever seen, especially if you can stack a bunch of them together!

don't forget they might add a lot in beta to test and then remove ones based on feedback	Posted by karitas on Apr 23, 2015, 9:20:15 PM Quote this Post
" Some of these new unique jewels just seem terrible for every build at all times. Some new information came up in the Ziggy Q&A linked on the announcement page. Apparently 1) vaaling jewels can turn them into certain unique jewels, and 2) about half of those are bad on purpose. I suspect that vaalable uniques won't drop normally.

I would say, it's quite nice, but for sure not breath holder. Anticipation slowly dissipates...	Posted by tmaciak on Apr 27, 2015, 3:04:23 AM Quote this Post

Vaal Grace? Vaal Summon Skellis? Just 3 Vaal Skills that benefit a lot from this jewel. I'm thinking of a 20+ second long lasting Vaal Haste and/or Vaal Grace. This is ridiculous strong. █▀▀▌ █▌█▀▀▀ █▀▀▌█▄░▌ █▀▀█ █▌▀▀▀█ █░░▌█▀▌▌ █▄▄▌ █▌█▄▄█ █▄▄▌█░█▌	Posted by eviL_Bison on Apr 27, 2015, 5:01:28 AM Quote this Post
Interesting. I'd LOVE if there was a Jewel giving projectile speed, a modifier that is in very short supply for any magic projectile user. (Passive tree in assassin/ranger/duelist areas, Karui Ward Amulet, and random wand; One would have expected at least one wand/scepter/staff unique increasing projectile speed, but none exist.) Scionic Flametank 3.2: The classic ES-CI-ZO-GR regeneration tank is back in business, stronger than ever before with 50-60% ES/s recovery during most fights due to creative use of regeneration, leech, and recovery mechanics https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/1271604	Posted by Pi2rEpsilon on Apr 27, 2015, 8:30:14 AM Quote this Post
