Socket Gems and Customize Your Build

Inserting Gems into Equipment

Gem sockets let you add targeted bonuses to your gear. To customize your equipment:

1. Identify which of your items have socket slots (shown in the tooltip)

2. Obtain cut gems from drops or crafting

3. Visit an Infusion Station

4. Place your socketed gear and cut gems into the station interface

5. Insert gems into available sockets

Choosing the Right Gems

Different gems provide different benefits:

  • Critical strike gems increase your chance to land devastating hits
  • Elemental damage gems add fire, ice, or lightning effects to attacks
  • Health gems boost your maximum health pool

Match gems to your playstyle. Melee fighters benefit from critical and health gems, while ranged users might prioritize elemental damage. You can swap gems between items at the Infusion Station, so experiment to find your ideal setup.
