Flawless gem
The flawless gem is the best of the two gem types of Evony Age 2, the other gem type is called the delicate gem. You use the gems in your workshop to increase the star level of the items you have researched there. There is 14 different type of gear in Evony Age 2, and you can read more about making gear here. Each type you want to upgrade the level of your gear you have to use a certain number of gems. Using flawless gems instead of delicate gems will increase your chance of successfully upgrading your gear. The only drawback to using flawless gems is that they are twice as expensive as delicate gems at 2 Evony cents each.
Forge
With the introduction of Evony Age 2, the Forge is now a very important building. The reason is that you now need the forge to be able to place gems on the equipment that your heroes use. You use the gems to improve the attributes the gear give to your heroes. There are 3 types of gems in Evony Age 2 that you can place on your gear, Rubies, Sapphires and Topazes. Each of these gems comes from level 1 to level 10. You can read more about upgrading you gear in the forge here.
You also use the Forge to smelt to gems together to form one more powerful gem. You can read in detail about how the gem smelting process works here. In Age 1 the forge was pretty useless, the only thing you needed it for was as a prerequisite for building a workshop and researching military science.
Gems and upgrading items in the forge
Using Gems is a new feature of Evony Age II and you use these gems to improve the attributes the gear and items give to your heroes. The gear itself you make in your workshop, while you use the forge to place gems on the gear you have already made, this is called Advanced Blacksmithing. Then you use the feasting hall to equip heroes with gear. Gems are not the same as stratagems or gemstones. Gems in Evony Age II come in 3 types, Rubies, Sapphires and Topazes and each of these come from level 1 to level 10 I believe, even though I’ve only seen level 1 to level 9 so far.
You can buy these gems in the Evony store, and you can also get them from attacks. You can also melt two gems together to make a higher level gem using Advanced Gems Smelting. If you want to buy the gems from the store you buy them in chests. There are 3 types of chests, the Wooden Chest, the Bronze Chest and the Royal Chest. Each chest offers you 1 or 2 gems of level 1-3 for a Wooden Chest, 4-6 for a Bronze Chest and 7-9 for a Royal Chest. Read the rest of this entry »
