str is not good because imc boosting red/yellow gem,HC phys/crit attack and trascend , before this happen str is a good stats to have
@Hordew thereās a chart with gem values posted farther up. the reason the thread was successful is that i know what to shoot for now and actual reasons that apply to my specific class build. comes down to the easiest path to 100% crit rate.
interestingly, gems seem to be balanced against parabolic stat growth to some extent

have you try to leveling gem yourself?
lv 5 gem is easy 10k exp. lv 6 is normal 43k exp. lv 7 is hard 172k exp. lv 8 is very hard 864k exp. i stopped at lv 7.
unless you have infinite silver to buy lv8+ gem in market, it is cheaper to invest DEX to reach 100% crit rate.
i am STR archer, my only problem is mdef and evasion
You can realistically feed one gem, from Lv1 to Lv10 without ever using it.
That therein lies the problem, youāll be feeding a gem to level it up without actually using it until you hit the max level that you want, in this case Lv10.
So youāll be focusing all of your efforts to feed that one gem, while simultaneously gimping your own growth, strength and overall viability in other fields.
If only gems maintained their level after removal from an item (which they donāt), the majority of people would be on Lv7s, with a decent amount wearing Lv8s and the elite at multiple Lv10s.
I personally am wearing all Lv6s, my Lv7s were Greens and they ended up in the gutter around the time I was about to use them.
Each weapon/armor iteration youāre changing to would necessitate re-growing gems from -1 their original level if you salvaged them from your older gear. This is exceptionally painful at Lv8 or higher.
Or dual wield credit/debit-cards and sell TP items. Then itāll be faster.
Maybe your plan would have better execution if we were already at Rank 10. Nothing else will be added to the game (in terms of ranks) and a true end-game item can be geared towards.
(Should iToS actually live that long, I doubt itāll end there.)
Or they might sell (via TP) more OP Abrasives that get your gem to Lv7/8/9/10 in one feeding. Thatāll be fun.
i understand the level 10 gems thing isnāt feasible. the reason iām even talking about gems at this point is that in order to achieve anything close to 100% crit iād still need to slap a couple greens in a shield (whatever level they might be).
iāve taken all the advice and info in the thread and worked out a build path (5:1) dex/con and the best options to supplement any crit rate iād be still lacking in the end. honestly iām not still trying to figure out which stat is best or basing anything on the caveat of having x level x gems.
