Jewels are are small one-space items that can be magical or rare and must be found, they are never sold by NPCs. Jewels have no function on their own, they must be socketed, and then you gain their benefits. Each Jewel has the same mods no matter what you socket it in, unlike Runes and Gems that change depending on what they are seated in. This is an advantage for jewels, as it allows you to add damage or IAS from your armor, helm, or shield, and add resistance from your weapon, something gems and runes never do. The mods found on jewels are pretty low, especially on rare ones, but some types are very useful. | {{Item navbox}}Jewels are are small one-space items that can be magical or rare and must be found, they are never sold by NPCs.

Probably the best mod to add if you are doing physical damage with your weapon. Even useful for Sorcs if they are using Lightning or Chain Lightning, since those rely on swing speed for their casting speed. The fact that this one can't be found on Rare Jewels is probably the biggest strike against them for combat characters.

The fact that this one can't be found on Rare Jewels is probably the biggest strike against them for combat characters. Fervor vs. Shael: The Shael Rune (#13), adds 20% in a weapon and is harder to find. 15% or 20% will give you the same frame rate almost all the time, "of Fervor" jewels work in things other than weapons, and you can get a nice prefix on the same jewel, so in most cases an "of Fervor" will give you a better result. | ||
