Does it matter what rarity gem you get?

[Immortalits]

I just got a few examples, where the base rarity was meaning nothing for the actual gems after appraisal:
3 gems, rarity 5-6-7 -> appraisal -> 5-5-6
3 gems, rarity 5-5-6 -> appraisal -> 5-6-6

and some similar examples... does it actually matter what gem rarity you get?
because if the gems could become both lower and higher actual rarity ones, then I don't even see a point on why this rarity system exist for looting at all in case of gems...
or am I missing something?

Yes, they have different chances for being high or low rarity decorations.

Better detailed numbers.

I'd also like pointing out that on the Decorations themselves, there are rarer gems within rarities.

Eg. Rarity 5 gems, which should all (allegedly) be quite common, have certain ones within them like Divine Blessing that are actually quite rare drops.

Well, it's just time, sooner or later (probably later) everyone could get all the deco, from the first site, I read it so, that now it's possible to get everything just from farming tier 2 tempered stuff, but I found both Nergigante and Vaal Hazak quite easy as non-tempered, so by killing those, when I get the investigations, could be some better chances too.
Xeno didn't seem that strong either, he just moves a bit annoying, especially for slower moving weapons, like my gunlance, but not too hard to kill, only difficulty is to get the horns from poking his head... he just moves too much :D

Well, my main question was, that if I was missing something on why I get different rarity gems from the feystones, but I got the answer, now I also know what to farm to get the gems I need, it's only time now :)
I'm a collector, so I just simply won't meld gems, that are not at 'max possible lvl' number, I'll only meld the ones, that are over that number or gems, that I will absolutely never use, like wide range or rally cats, etc... but for easier item switches, I think I'll also keep my currently 5 vitality gems and won't meld the extra 2.
The only gem I realy need is the Guard Up anywawys, since the Set I like the most is the Vaal Hazak/Nergigante one for healing, but nergi bonus can be obtained from both lunastra/nergi weapons and from augmenting weapons too, the only disadvantage of the Vaal set is the fire vulnerability, but I like to have a constant and reliable health restore.

Well, about "collecting", I'm at 560 hrs, been farming lavasioth for a very long time I do at least 20 in a day, and I still have yet to get;
Pierce Deco
Shield Deco
Ironwall Deco

Hilariously, I got 2 attack decos in 2 back to back runs

Of course, when you decide to set a drop rate at .81%, in all honesty, you just hate your players and are doing it to be spiteful and mean, especially in an all PVE game.

Hm... so you still haven't got a shield... that is the Guard Up skillgem... that means I should get the accessory for it then before I somehow get it -.-

Yup, I make do with the Bulwark Gem, but because I'm forced to use that as a charm, I lose a ton of DPS potential.

Ironwall decos are really a pain to get especially because having only one like normal shots, spread shots, minds eye, mighty bow isn't enough. You either have three or you run the charm instead.
