gem

ok this is about 2 things

one, why does everyone want chipped gems instead of perfect gems? I always hear "60 chipped gems for soj", and i dont know why

second thing, in the chat screen after u select ur char in bnet, in the middle of a screen inside the spiral theres a gem and when u click it it says "Gem activated" or "gem deactivated", anyone know what this is good for?

1. Chipped gems are used with a magical sword in a horadric cube to create a sword of the same type with new mods and 3 sockets, which is how 3 socket Cruel Collosus Blades are made.

2. Nothing.

k thx
if it does nothing then why did they put it there?

To torture us.

lol
why do people want 60 gems then instead of going out and finding 3 for themselves? too lazy?

You got it...plus trading for them is much much faster.

My guess would be that they get a kick out of hearing everyone complain about the gem.

OH CRAP, get down. The CIA apperently couldn't accept that I revealed their little secret.

the gem was originally going to have a purpose. there were a lot of very sweet things they took out of diablo 2 and i dont know why. anyway they just decided to leave it as a mystery for awhile. they didnt officially say it did nothing untill a month or two after diablo 2 was released.

sweet thing = chat trading interface now someone tell me how they could have left it out We probly could have hacked the hell out of it though.

i'm sure you could've answer may be you could come up with a dupe method for it or sumthing... i dunno

I was talking about if it was actually implimented as a chat/trade interface....now it even works when you are disconnected to B.Net so it has no link to the game what-so-ever.

Did you know that I posted a program that clicks the gem like 5000000000000000000000000000 times?

Yes, it displays "Gem deactivated".

If u click it enought times it will change to perfect gem activated

sometimes it says MOOOOOOOOOOOOO too

really!

yay!! im not a useless imp anymore!!

just a imp lol

yeah ive had it say MOOOOOOOOOOOOO too, when i saw that i was like wtf?? and then i tried tellin ppl but they were all like what the hell retard thats the craziest thing ive ever heard

yea and sometimes it says prepare for cow burger! takes forever ill get a screen shot if ya want me 2

lol, i went to diabloii.net and they heard soem rumors that it would make a gem shrine appear in the game, or a gem drop

this was during the early stages of the game when nobody had much stuff, so one person said "I got 3 chipped gems, and before i had clicked the gem i had only gotten one, so i am 100 percent sure that the gem makes u get more gems from drops..... also i found a gem shrine, which i had never found before..." etc.

that was pretty funny

Actally it was lame not funny
