# Jewel (Forge) System

## Overview

The Jewel System is an advanced enchanting mechanic that allows players to customize their equipment by socketing mystical "Jewels" into their gear. These jewels grant specific bonus stats, ranging from elemental damage and resistances to utility stats like life leech, loot chance, and attack speed.

## Acquiring Jewels (Zarion NPC)

Jewels cannot be bought with standard gold. They are exclusively sold by the NPC **Zarion**, who deals only in **Skull Coins**.

* **Cost:** Every jewel in Zarion's collection costs exactly **100 Skull Coins**.

## Socketing Rules & Limitations

Players cannot simply put any jewel into any piece of equipment. The system follows strict balancing rules:

1. **Maximum Slots:** An item can have a maximum of **3** jewel slots. By default, items have **0** slots.
2. **Unlocking Slots:** You must unlock slots by upgrading your item in the Forge. You gain exactly one slot for each of the following milestones achieved:
   * The item reaches **Tier 6** or higher.
   * The item reaches **Mythic Rarity**.
   * The item is refined to **+10**.
3. **Diversity Limit:** An item can hold a maximum of **2 different types** of jewels. This means if you want to fill all 3 slots on an item, at least two of the jewels must be of the exact same type.
4. **Equipment Categories:** Jewels are restricted based on the type of equipment you are enchanting. For example:
   * **Weapons (Swords, Wands, Bows, etc.):** Can receive Damage, Skill, Attack Speed, Critical, Multishot, and Magic Level.
   * **Shields:** Can receive Resistances, Skill, Perseverance, and Magic Level.
   * **Armor:** Can receive Resistances, Damage, Skill, Critical, Magic Level, Leech, and Max Health/Mana.
   * **Helmets:** Can receive Skill and Magic Level.
   * **Legs:** Can receive Mana Leech and Skill.
   * **Boots:** Can receive Loot Chance, Life Leech, Skill, and Speed.
   * **Accessories & Trinkets:** Can receive Skill, Magic Level, Leech, and other specific utility stats depending on the item type.

## Available Jewels

There are 42 distinct jewels available, categorized into several types:

* **Defensive (PvE Resistances):** Ironhide, Ashen Ward, Frostguard, Stoneweave, Sparkward, Eclipse, Lifeward.
* **Offensive (PvE Damage):** Brutal, Inferno, Glacial, Tremor, Tempest, Divine, Necrotic.
* **Utility & Combat:** Void-siphon (Mana Leech), Vampiric (Life Leech), Hawkeye (Sharpshooter), Indomitable (Perseverance), Bloodlust (Berserk), Alacrity (Attack Speed), Archmage (Magic Level), Fortune (Loot Chance), Assassin's (Critical), Vitality (Max HP), Astral (Max MP), Zephyr (Speed), Volley (Multishot), Mastery (Skill).
* **PvP Specific:** A separate set of 14 jewels dedicated exclusively to PvP Damage (e.g., Warflame, Blizzard) and PvP Resistances (e.g., Emberwall, Glacial Veil).

## Stat Values

The exact value granted by socketing a jewel is fixed based on the stat type:

* Max Health / Max Mana: **+30**
* Loot Chance: **+3%**
* Accessories (Rings/Amulets): All stats are reduced to **1**.
* Multishot: **+1**
* Most other stats (Damage, Resistances, Leech, etc): **+2**
