Gem levels - spells vs attacks
Right now, the there is a huge disparity between gem level scaling vs resulting power boost when it comes to comparison Spells vs Attacks
Spells provide huge buff Attacks provide ... marginal buff It would be interesting to provide better scaling to attack gem levels so the weapons "+1 melee gems" would be actually useful in some cases. Attacks scale with the weapons directly, but the amount of utility provided to spell dmg scaling is making attack builds on average much worst than spell casters. Gem levels and scaling of base gem should be improved, or add additional incentive to attacks when it comes to level of the gem, to actually have some more incentive of vaaling to 21 , other than 1-2% dmg efficiency. AoE attacks have some bonus for range, but still, it's not as big bonus due to the way AoE is currently scaled. I represent only myself, my own thought and believes. I am individual, not a representative of the community. I am not speaking on behalf of someone else and I don't get offended by things that have nothing to do with me. 3.13 was the golden age.

Agreed. Scaling for melee gem is really minor for each level up.
Hopefully this will be addressed in 3.7, when melee will get looked at... "Metas rotate all the time, eventually the developers will buff melee"

Attack skills could provide some (not much) bonus flat base damage of appropriate type, which would scale with gem level much like spell damage does.
