What Does the Amethyst Charm Do?
Boosts Chaos Resistance: It gives you +18% Chaos Resistance for 4 seconds after you take chaos damage.
Automatic Activation: It turns on by itself when you’re hit with chaos damage. You don’t need to press any buttons.
Uses Charges:

You can refill charges by killing monsters or using Wells.
Level Requirement: You need to be at least Level 40 to use it.
When Should You Use It?
The Amethyst Charm is great in areas or fights where chaos damage is common. Chaos damage can be dangerous because it goes through energy shields and directly harms your health.
Best Times to Use It:
In Chaos-heavy Zones: Some maps and enemies deal lots of chaos damage or poison.
During Boss Fights: Certain bosses or areas have strong chaos attacks.
If You Have Low Chaos Resistance: This charm can help protect you if you haven’t found other gear to boost your resistance.
How Do You Get the Amethyst Charm?
Dropped by Enemies: The charm can drop randomly when you kill monsters or open chests.
Higher-level Zones: Since it requires Level 40, you may be more likely to find it in mid-to-late-game areas.
Tips for Using the Amethyst Charm
Keep it in Your Belt:
The charm only works if it’s slotted into your belt. Make sure it’s equipped!
Refill the Charges:
Charges refill automatically as you kill enemies or by using Wells between fights.
Pair It with Other Gear:
Use it with other items or flasks that reduce chaos damage or counter poison effects for extra safety.
Be Prepared for Chaos Damage:
If you’re heading into a map or fight with chaos damage, make sure your charm is fully charged.
The Amethyst Charm is a great tool to help you stay alive when chaos damage becomes a problem. Use it wisely, keep it charged, and make sure it’s equipped when you need it. Good luck in your adventures!
