Jeweler Gems & Socketing

Season 7 - Season of Witchcraft

Last Updated:January 19, 2025|Changelog

The Jeweler has everything you need to craft powerful Gems and socket them into your gear to boost your character's stats, be it more Damage, Resistances, or Main Stat. The best part is that you can change your mind at any time! The Jeweler can un-socket your Gems from your gear without ruining them, for later use. Let's learn more about the Jeweler.

Finding the Jeweler

The Jeweler

The Jeweler can be found in Kyovashad immediately after starting your adventure at level 1. However, when your character reaches level 20, you receive a Priority Quest objective to go and see the Jeweler in Kyovashad. Here you are given the task of upgrading Ruby Fragments into a Chipped Ruby. You're given Ruby Fragments and need a small amount of Gold to craft your first Gem.

But now where do you put this Gem? As you adventure, you will come across items that already have Sockets in them. Sockets can roll as a bonus stat and allow you to put Gems inside to benefit from the stats listed on the Gem. Your Helm, Chest, Pants, Rings, Amulet, and Weapons can all have Sockets (head, chest, pants and two-handed weapon have 2, the rest 1). Killing a World Boss or Treasure Goblin may reward you with a Scattered Prism that can be used to add Sockets to your gear.

Gems

The Jeweler

There are many types of Gems in Diablo 4 that each provide different stats when socketed into your gear. The gear slot you socket these powerful gems into decides how they empower your character. Generally speaking, socketing your weapon provides some additive damage effect, main stats if socketed into your armor, and Resistance/Armor to your jewelry.

Crafting these gems requires you to collect fragments, such as Sapphire Fragment. These fragments can be found when slaying elite enemies, opening the Tree of Whispers Cache, interacting with Ore Veins, and opening normal chests.

Below is a table of all existing gems in Diablo 4, containing their crafting costs and function when put into specific gear slots.

Unsocketing

The Jeweler

You may want to upgrade the Gems you currently have in your gear, or swap to different ones to gain a stat you don't currently have. Luckily, the Jeweler allows you to unsocket Gems from your Gear free of charge! This removes the Gem for later use and reopens the slot to allow a new Gem to be Socketed into it.

Adding Sockets

The Jeweler

If you find an awesome piece of gear that did not generate with Sockets in it, you're in luck. For the cost of a Scattered Prism, the Jeweler can add Sockets to your gear. Scattered Prisms have a chance to drop from World Boss Events, Loot Goblins etc. and you only need 1 to add a Socket to a piece of gear. Not every gear slot can have Sockets added to them. The list below shows which slots can, and how many Sockets they can have.

Armor

  • Helm - 2 Socket
  • Chest - 2 Sockets
  • Pants - 2 Sockets

Jewelry

  • Amulet - 1 Socket
  • Ring - 1 Socket

Weapons

  • 1-Handed Weapon - 1 Socket
  • 2-Handed Weapon - 2 Sockets
  • Bow - 2 Sockets
  • Focus - 1 Socket
  • Shield - 1 Socket

Rune Crafting

The Jeweler

In addition to crafting gems with fragments, a recent addition to the Jeweler is a section called Rune Crafting. This section has two main features, rune transmutation and specific Mythic Unique item crafting.

Rune Transmutation

Rune Transmutation allows you to take three of a specific Rune and convert it to a random Rune of the same type. For example, you cannot convert three Eom Runes, an Invocation Rune, to a random Ritual Rune. This is important, as if you are looking for specific Runes for Crafting purposes then you need to make sure you are attempting to convert Runes of the correct type.

These converted Runes retain their quality and type when crafted. This means that the random Rune you generate will not risk dropping in quality and thus will also not increase the quality of lower-quality Runes.

Mythic Crafting

Mythic Crafting allows you to combine Runes and Resplendent Spark to convert them into a specific Mythic Unique. For example, Tam x6, Qax x6, and Zan x6 together with two Resplendent Spark becomes Andariel's Visage.

Compared to the random Mythic crafting option at the Blacksmith, this allows more farming from the player as the required Runes could be hard to come by. However, it also allows full control of the outcome and could thus be preferred as Resplendent Spark is difficult to come by.

Before you craft your Mythic Unique, make sure you head over to our build guides and find what Mythic Unique you need to elevate your build to the next level.

Summary

  • The Jeweler allows you to craft Gems, Socket your gear, and remove previously socketed Gems.
  • Runes can be used at the Jeweler to craft other Runes and Mythic Unique items.
  • Gems typically add damage to your Weapons, Main stats, and Resistances or Armor to your Jewelry.
  • Adding a Socket to your gear requires a Scattered Prism, which has a chance to drop from World Bosses and Treasure Goblins.
  • If you decide to upgrade or change your Gems at any time, you can un-socket your gear to fit what you need for your build.
