I'm not going to bother upgrading gems for that 4 stats... It's just too costly.. what a let down and to remove it from socket another 5M? God have mercy on us all. Blizzard's gone bonkers

what's so about a marquise?

A new tier of account-bound gems of has been added to the game: Marquise
- Marquise Gems stats are as follows:
    - Marquise Emerald
        - Weapon: Increased Critical Hit Damage by 110%
        - Helm: +33% Extra Gold from Monsters
        - Armor: +62 Dexterity
    - Marquise Topaz
        - Weapon: Melee attackers take 2200 per hit
        - Helm: 33% Better chance of finding magical items
        - Armor: +62 Intelligence
    - Marquise Amethyst
        - Weapon: Each Hit adds +700 Life
        - Helm: +19% Life
        - Armor: +62 Vitality
    - Marquise Ruby
        - Weapon: +150 Minimum and +150 Maximum Damage
        - Helm: Increases Bonus Experience by 33%
        - Armor: +62 Strength
- These gems can only be created at the Jeweler and will require the following reagents:
    - 3 Radiant Star Gems
    - 20 million gold
    - 1 Demonic Essence
- Un-socketing Marquise gems will cost 5 million gold
- The designs for the Marquise gems will drop randomly from all level 63 monsters
    - Note: The designs are not account-bound

eh, 110% only? WTF

but the 150min is good? what's radiant star ruby bonus?

i thought Ruby is nerfed from 150 (min-max) to 80 (min-max) onli..

"Vanishing Dye and All-Soap's Miraculous Dye Remover can now be used on Legendary items" 

If it's "You can now dye Legendary items"  kan bagus

like at range, all range character gain 20% damage boost SINCE WE NEED TO STAY AT RANGE TO SURVIVE. (Blizz say 35% cuz need to get close so we get smth also since we need to stay far).

Actually, it only required tiny bit of work. Since you can only dye armor parts, not weapon. It's just palettes swapping; just like the normal items...

but anyway I think it's possible to dye legendary in the future. Right now Blizzard just focus on what's important thing to patch dulu.

core of arreat - up to 3 NV, then jump to
keep 3 - up to 3 NV, then
(backup plan) stonefort - for more NV & KW
