Awakened gems are pointless

In order to get them, you gotta reach endgame and the bosses who drop those gems are at endgame. And by default you defeated bosses without awakened gems. Not to mention leveling gems to level 5 with massive exp bar.

struggling thru a 10-way is not endgame
killing a low quant drox is not endgame
even killing maven is hardly endgame

Poe game design makes very little sense. Poe did it to itself.

That's not what endgame means. It means at end of progression. You were talking about difficulty.
you 're supposed to sell them, the problem is the ones that do drop are not worth much. the ones that are worth a lot just dont drop
if endgame bosses don't drop anything interesting, it would also suck
They're for people who intend to go further into endgame than basic-tier bossing.

It's a thought.
However, perhaps you only just managed to do said endgame without the gems and with them it'll be easier next time and so on.
But I had the same thought about the drops from Shaper and Elder when they were still the top bosses. Once you got there, the drops were not necessary anymore, obviously.

They are chase items. Games like this need chase items. The problem is you need to do it every league, which isn't a design for everyone. Forget the end game exists, and this game gets a lot better.
