I've heard there're some bugs with certain jewels. Recently, I've found a 37ed 15 max jewel and I wonder if it'd be wasted if I socket it into Arreat.

Thanks.

Never put ed/max or min jewels in helmets, armors or shields.

Because there's a problem in final dmg calc ?

Thanks! Could have nearly wasted a great jewel.

Because there's a problem in final dmg calc ?When ED/max jewels are put in non-weapon sockets, the ED is only applied to the minimum damage. When ED/min jewels are put in non-weapon sockets, the ED only gets applied to the maximum damage. Plain ED and ED/IAS jewels work fine however.

Hmm..anyway, I've read in another source that although there's an error in the display (client-side), it works fine in server side (meaning the actual damage dealt). Not sure how true this is.

Thx Evrae. I read the patches log and I do not think I found this bug listed. I guess it is still there, as you say. Or it may be like the (in)famous Grief damage ? Sometimes I think we would need some "speaking damage test dummies " in LoD...

blizz usually have a 'stupid stuff we did' section? :) guess the patch log would be too big for older machines if they added that.

eheheh, yes, I guess so. I only thought it might have appeared as a bug fix like: "Minor Issues: Fixed a bug that made +max/min damage off-weapon jewels effective on min/max damage output respectively". It appears that I was deadly wrong. :grin:
