Gems could use some Love

Right now Gems is sort of excessive
You get lots of them but with little to no use in game

It would be nice to make gems like Witcher Oils

It gives you temporary elemental damage
Crude 30s
Regular 60s
Flawless 120s

But it only gets coated on that specific weapon

Wait, you mean you don´t use them to get BiS jewels for your builds? I guess in that case, yes, they are mostly useless.

I thought I remember using gems for Lighting depending on the color. I think they Axed that idea but I was alright with it seeing as gems have almost no real use.

Gems do need to be used for something more, I've been grinding them down for dust then using them to summon golems for the gem colors I want but once you have the best roll for spell jewels they kind sit there or just get ignored when picking up loot. Hell I'd like a trash can just to toss away junk I don't need or want anymore cause of how excess the materials can be.

I like Papers and what not to be used for scrolls for buffs. Having gems used for something like that would be okay in my book. Giving a temporary buff to the school of magic you want would be pretty solid.

Everyone hates this garbage gacha rng with jewels, and this guy saying they are useless, lmao.

To even get the Gem Crafting table you got to next to level 50 gear.
They could have just had a single gem to do all the rerolls instead of multiple gems for no added purpose
