He Is Coming: Gemstone Scepter Guide
Written by Michael Owen | He is Coming
The Gemstone Scepter is a Heroic rarity weapon that stands out because it gains On Hit effects from multiple gem-based items, making it one of the best scaling tools in the game for effect stacking and hybrid builds.
Gemstone Scepter Base Stats
Rarity: Heroic
Base Attack: 2 damage per hit
Special Effect: Gains On Hit effects from Emerald, Ruby, Sapphire, and Citrine items.
This means every gem item you equip that has an On Hit property (like poison, burn, or energy gain) will trigger when you attack with the Gemstone Scepter.
How to Use the Gemstone Scepter
The key to maximizing this weapon is stacking multiple gem items that offer different On Hit effects. For example:
Emerald items often apply poison or DoT effects.
Ruby items trigger burn or additional damage.
Sapphire items commonly offer energy or shield regeneration.
Citrine items focus on critical hits or utility boosts.
With the Gemstone Scepter, you don’t have to choose just one effect—you get them all on every swing. This makes it one of the strongest options for players looking to exploit status effects or high synergy combos.
Recommended Builds
Pairing the Gemstone Scepter with attack speed gear or strike-based buffs can lead to devastating results since each hit applies all active gem effects. Combine it with food buffs like Cherry Bomb or defensive items for sustainable, high-output damage.
Final Blurb
The Gemstone Scepter turns gem-based On Hit effects into a single powerful package, letting you stack multiple triggers in one weapon. It’s perfect for hybrid builds that thrive on status application and fast attacks.
