Gems
Gems are special items that can be added to gear to increase equipment power. They are created and upgraded through the Salvage and Crafting skills and can provide damage, tribrid damage, or drop rate bonuses depending on the gem type.
Gems are an important long-term gear enhancement system because they allow players to improve their equipment beyond the item's normal stats.
All gems give 1% per tier. For example, a tier 1 gem gives 1% increased damage or drop rate, while a tier 25 gem gives 25%.

Types of Gems
