A question about this jewel

Am I reading this right?

This jewel has the potential of giving you 9 or 10 times 21 % = 189% or 210% increased damage????

2 handed weapon - helm - gloves - chest - ring - ring - amulet - boots - belt = 9

1 handed weapon - helm - gloves - chest - ring - ring - amulet - boots - belt - shield = 10

would you really want to play with 10 magic items ?

This, and bear in mind it's increased and not "more". Should be a really interesting gem for builds that have some "empty slots" and very little "increased damage" from passive tree. RF and PA come to mind.

Rares and Uniques are also magic items. ;p

So true.

Now that you said that, they should probably word it clearer for new players.

could be also nice for builds with skills that have limited number of damage passives (and/or are located in the other side of the tree), I mean skills that deal neither spell nor attack damage and also lack common generic properties

Flasks are not equipped, they occupy the mystic dimension known as flask-space, from which their power is tapped by direct mental application.

So they don't count. :p
