Jewels are upgrade components that are also used as activators in the making of accessories. They are crafted at a jeweler's station. Corresponding gemstones and jewels (e.g. a Garnet Pebble (gemstone) and an Adorned Garnet Jewel (jewel)) both give a bonus to the same attributes, although the amount of bonus given by the jewel is greater than that from the gemstone. It is important to note that as of BWE2, Jewels cannot be sent to the account vault by choosing "deposit collectible." Jewels also do not have their own slots in the bank vault storage panes, and must therefore be stored with the rest of the items in the main Bank section.

Uses[edit]

Jewels, like gemstones, can be used in multiple ways:

  • Activator - When incorporated during the crafting process, a jewel creates a Masterwork version of the same item that is made using the gemstone of the same tier. The required level to equip and attribute bonuses of the finished item are increased over those of the Fine item made with the gemstone.
  • Upgrade component - Jewels may be added to an item with an Upgrade Slot.png unused upgrade slot, giving that item the attribute bonuses inherent to the jewel, in addition to those the item already possessed. Note that like other upgrade components, jewels cannot be removed from an item without destroying that item by salvaging.

Attribute Bonuses[edit]

Jewels of different tiers provide bonuses to various attributes, becoming stronger as the tier levels increase. Jewels that give bonuses to the attributes Critical Damage.png Critical Damage and Magic Find.png Magic Find (such as Peridot, Sunstone, ..., ...) will use the percentage listed for the minor bonus.
