Gems

Gems have been added to game with the Feb 5 2021 patch 1.3.0.

Gems are essential in supplying a player's income and battling power.

#### Battle Gems

The first 5 gems are called **Battle Gems.** They will increase relic battle boosts and are essential if a player wants to cut down on costs with relics.
The boost is calculated as: *Gem level \* 2*
For example: lvl 117 Crit damage gem will give you 234% Crit Damage boost. The base drop rate is 1 in 2.5m, but these chances can be improved through drop rate and exploration difficulty.

#### **Frenzy**

This basically allows you to kill more than one monster per action, and get extra gold and experience
Currently (patch 1.4.8) the formula to calculate how much gold/experience you will earn for every extra killed monster is:
*0.65^x/1.3+0.02*
For example:
*If you kill 1 monster per action and you get 100 gold, then with frenzy, the 2nd killed monster will gain you extra: 100\*(0.65^1/1.3+0.02) = 52 gold, so the overall gained gold per 1 action will be 152 now.*

The base drop rate for a frenzy gem is 1 in 5m. Like the battle gems, these odds can also be improved through drop rate and exploration difficulty.

## Ways a player can get gems

#### Random drop

Gems can be dropped randomly through player or partner actions. To get the possibility of a gem drop you first have to be in a Kingdom, and the Kingdom must have an active Exploration running. The type of gem dropped during the exploration will be determined by the type of zone multiplier the active exploration is at. Frenzy gems can drop on any zone multiplier.

The level of the gem dropped is also affected by the exploration level. Gems can drop from 1/2 the completed exploration level up to the level itself.

The drop rate can be improved through the drop boost. The difficulty of the exploration also has a multiplicative boost to the drop rate. The formula for the gem drop rate can be calculated as `1/2500000 * (1 + dropBoost) * (1 + difficultyBoost)`. If a player has not received any gems through drops for a long period of time, they will eventually get a guaranteed gem drop. The exact number of actions is unknown.

#### Create Gems

Players can create gems through the fragment fusing section found through the Inventory > Gems > Gem Fusing. A popup will appear once the Gem Fusing button is clicked, giving many options to create different types of gems. One such option is "fragment fusing", the ability to create gems through gem fragments.

A player can obtain gem fragments through battle actions when they are in a kingdom. Each action will increase the gem fragment progress bar (found in the "Quests" section of the upper left box) by 1. There are a few different additional ways to increase the progress per action:

1. If the kingdom is doing an exploration, the progress bar will increase by an additional point per action.
2. A player can also take a quest to get extra additive points towards the progress bar in return for 10% reduced gold per regular battle action.
3. The fragment chance boost will give a chance to receive an additional point per action. This is increased through the party ranking, kingdom explorations, and taking over village or kingdom tiles.

Once the bar fills up all the way, the player will obtain 20 gem fragments. 1000 gem fragments are needed to create a single gem.

A kingdom can decrease the action requirement to fill the bar with gold. Each upgrade will cost 1b gold each until level 100, where the cost increases to 2b. Every 100 levels after that, the cost will increase by another 1b.

A kingdom can also raise the floor of the created gem's level through the fragment booster upgrade. The level boost can be calculated as `fragBoostLevel ** 0.6`. Each level costs 1b gold until level 100, where the cost increases to 2b. Like the gem fragmenter, it will continue to increase the cost by 1b every 100 levels.

#### Buy them from the market

Players can buy or trade the gems through market or through the Trade channel. After 2 unequips the gems become untradeable, so players should take notice when buying gems how many unequips they still have left.

#### Guaranteed Drops

After completing the 15th and 30th exploration levels, players in the kingdom will get a guaranteed gem drop. The levels and type of gem still has the same rules as a regular gem drop. Players may also get a frenzy gem as a guaranteed drop as well.
