Rainbow Facet Unique Jewels

I found one yesterday and hadn't seen one before (cough "n00b" cough). Does anybody use these things or are they just gathering dust in ATMAs all over the world?
 
i socketed one lightning facet in a lidless for my lf-zon, and a poison facet in a perfect vipermagi for my poisonmancer.
 
I have two. Both gathering dust.

This one...

Rainbow Facet
Jewel
Required Level: 49

Fingerprint: 0xd2b3a846
Adds 17-45 fire damage
100% Chance to cast Level 31 Meteor When You Die

might get a chance if I can't find anything else to socket my Meteorb sorc's armour with.

hi atil
Rainbow facet is very useful, socket it to your socketable.
but next time you should post on item find thread. congratz! :thumbsup:
 
They don't make a big difference but I use them when I find them. Got a Fire Facett in my druids ravenlore, for example. IIRC the +3-5% damage is added on the same level as a mastery so chars without masteries benefit more from them.

erm, this wasn't just an "OMG i found a rainbow facet!!!!111" post. There was a valid question in there too...

They're very useful if you're looking to optimize your character. In general +dmg is better on cold and -res is better on the others.

I disagree. He had a question relating to a specific item and its usefulness. The fact that he just happened to find one is irrelevant.

Mine is a lightning themed one, with the Cast effect occuring on death. Seems a tad useless to a Conc Barb. I'm tempted to use it on a HC LF 'Zon. At least she'd go out in a blaze of glory...

PS Salvo: Point duly noted. Thanks for the congrats, but I posted for the "use of" question rather than bragging rights :)

Well, back when I played on "Players 8" ALL the time I liked to use perfect ones in my end game equipment just because every little bit helps for killing. But, I've been playing "Players 1 or 3" the past 6 months and things die pretty fast, so I tend to go for MF socket fillers over perfect facets.
 
When fighting Baal, it's convenient to portal out, strip your merc and
equip a "multi-unique-jewel-on-death-cast" stuffed hat. It's quite humourous.

Hah yea.

6 socket Halberd
3 socket Breast Plate
3 socket Helm

3x 100% Chance To Cast Level 37 Blizzard When You Die
3x 100% Chance To Cast Level 31 Meteor When You Die
3x 100% Chance To Cast Level 51 Poison Nova When You Die
3x 100% Chance To Cast Level 47 Chain Lightning When You Die

Interesting indeed if you put this on a merc at lvl49. Will take care of most bosses right? Especially in Act5 Normal and Nightmare. Someone should test this.

Do you really get three meteors? Or just one with 300% chance (which would be pointless...)

The lower the "merc-lvl", the faster the "fire-works". Keep a "level-up" unique
jeweled hat in your pack, for those "experience" moments.

I have no idea. Hopefully, it will get 3 meteors. Imagine the bombardment.

sorry, you don't get three meteors. you get 300% chance to cast one meteor. even if the 3 facets are each in different items.
