Gem
,→Gem Varieties: double word deleted
Gems can not be bought, only found, though this changed several times during development. Better quality gems are found as you progress in the game.
* In Diablo II the system is rigid: Chipped gems show up in [[Act I]] and [[Act II]] and Flawed in [[Act III]] and [[Act IV]]4, with very rare exceptions of [[monster]]s ([[High Council]] usually) dropping Normals. In [[Nightmare]] and [[Hell]] all gems dropped are normal.
* In the expansion there is more variety. Gem quality dropped is based on [[Mlvl]], and though it progresses at about the same rate, you can find some Normal gems in [[Act IV]] and [[Act V]], and can even rarely come across Flawless gems. By late Nightmare nearly every gem dropped is Flawless, and this continues through Hell, though some lower quality, usually chipped, will still drop from time to time. Perfect gems are never dropped, though one may be found as a reward for the [[Quests_Act_Four#Quest_Two:_The_Hellforge|Hellforge]] Quest.
