i think this would be so great to have, new types of Soulgems that can do more than just increase a stat, some which make your weapon more customizable some ideas are:-
-+%exp gems
-mp and hp recovery up gems
-critical hit up gems
-each hit has a chance to.... gems
-gems which make your weapon glow, but do nothing else
-extremely rare gems that increase a stat by a percentage rather than a number e.g evasion +10%

these could be rare drops and sold in the cash shop, they would sell like a wildfire, sell more socket stones AND lower the price of the average and costly regular gems we have now.

    If Im not wrong, there are already several of those gems you suggested ingame. Like the Primeval Stone (+% crit, I think) etc.

    But +exp would be rly cool. Don't think this will be added as "rare drop" nevertheless, rather cashshop item.


    HP/MP recovery gems, useless gems (aka just glow) and maybe +speed should be buyable at merchants, I'd say. (Well +speed... dunno, maybe cashshop, too)

    Crit hit up gems r available.
    The other types of gems you're suggesting will prolly make some legend/weapons OP since u add more attributes to them.Imagine fists with Darken or Berserk.b:shocked

    primeval soulgem, never heard of it

    and as for these making weapons overpowered, may i remind you that last time i checked, nobody has a warsoul weapon, which is really really overpowered?

    making them rare gives you the right to have something overpowered

    There are already fists with Berserk, such as Buddha:Peace. The thing is, with the high atk/s of fists, you would use up too much life for the Berserk to be useful, you could easily get yourself killed.
    If you disregard what I say because of who I am or because of the contents of what I said, you are a fool.

    Everyone wants to be different, but when you're different you wish you were normal.

    +exp stones? b:spit . I rather use HP/MP recovery gems than that. Won't help you through the game whatsoever. Besides, there is quests, rebirth, no need for extra exp from equips, because its only bonus from grinding which is MOST likely NOT notice-able... Most people hate to grind too. Besides, you'll get a faster rate with HP/MP recovery bonus otherwise.

    And gems just to glow? what kind of waste of money is that? Seriously, why not just get TT or legendary weapons then? b:chuckle

    stats increasing % of whatever stats... no... just no... Thats going to make an easier game b:sweat

    HA > LA > AR... GG

    HA + VIT = win b:bye

    Wizzeled and his +240 Vitality sure as heck makes the game easier. Well, hooray 10,000+ Life on a pure dex character.

    Yeah that true xD. VIT stones O_O. I definitely want an endgame barb with killer amounts of VIT b:laugh.

    @ the OP, most of those suggestions fail b:laugh. Go get MP / HP recovery tomes with mixes, and HP/MP recovery with bonus in gears with +%exp rate.

    to all those people who comlpain that having a certain soulgem is "stupid" others dont,
    if there was a degree of customization for weapons similar to characters it would make the game more diverse, some of the hairstyles ive seen are epic fail but its better to have a wider variety of stuff to choose from, also if a gem is so overpowerful, maybe it could take up more than one socket?

    Uhm... why would someone buy / get HP / MP recovery stones? What happen if it was just on weapon like the stone of savant or primeval stone? You could just get MP / HP recovery items in gears.

    EXP+ is even worse. Is 1-5% each socket (2-10 on both for weapon only) really worth it? seriously this would never help in situations whatsoever...

    Gems just to make weapons glow... I LOL'ed at that. There is such thing as 3 stared weapons, legendary weapons and twilight tomb weapons that glow already (maybe more I think, but so far this is what I have seen) This is not even worth implementing. Worst idea ever

    think about it this way, if they take the hour to 2 hours and implement this gem and put it in the cash shop it could essentially pay itself off in a matter of hours, people will buy anyhitng claiming to be "new and rare" even if thier useless.

    it was the same thing with the rising tide mount that cost $70, nobody said it was a good idea but it sold a bit and managed to pay itself off and then some b:victory

    besides if they plan to release stones like this they may as well include it if not for any other reson that is adds stuff into the game
