This simply makes the charm relatively useless for most classes, while making a powerful class more powerful.The only way? I wouldn't be so quick to dismiss Lightning Fury which is already another strong killer and there's also the Holy Shock / Zeal combo that would benefit greatly also. The other thing about the information on hand, it seems these jewels might be available in Fire and Cold versions, probably Poison too . . .
But yeah, it's definitely a "rich get richer" senario in the making. <_<
Quote:Also, did you notice the mods? This charm has three entirely new effects (a little suspect). I hope it doesn't make it to the final verision of 1.10. All it is good for is novelty, and that is not what I am looking for.
Your hope matches mine then. I had anticipated unique jewels might be an outside possibility in a patch and the idea was not one I found appealing. The frequency with which one-slot items are among the more srt after in this game is kind of sad to see. :(
