Absolute max level on vitality gem, and its stats?

Hello!

I see on the wikipedia page it only shows stats for the gem to level 22, which is 1.75% regen. But what if u put it in a +2 gem helmet + empower gem (Which would put them get at level 26), would that give it more than 1.75% life regen?

I'm fairly certain that empower increases the mana reserved% on auras. That makes it not worth the few more points of regen imo.

Dont tihnk so. Does it go over 1,75% life regen(lvl22)? it should go up to level 26, but does the life regen go up as well?
The mana reserves will be the same, because its a fixed 40%.

No aura reserve amount is fixed. They can all be altered to be more or less depending on what is linked.

Empowers multiplier is 125%. A 40% aura ends up being a 50% - nodes-gear-red-mana adjustments.

Yes, the auras all become stronger at higher levels, including regen/

Ah, ok :) My bad, Thanks! I will try to make it work.

1. It increases 0.05 per level.
2. Empower does indeed increase mana reserved by 25%. (Or to be more precise, it is a 125% multiplier).
3. It is worth it in a few border cases, the most prominent example undoubtedly being Dy'Ness tank, which runs Reduced Mana-Empower-Vitality-Discipline in the Vertex, though even in that situation it is more of a fringe benefit of turbocharging Discipline and sharing the same link than worth it for its own sake. (In Dy'Ness example, Vitality and Discipline end up at level 26.)
