Gem Placement BUG: many issues with support gems that text says they can, yet cant when attempted
so i started to notice A LOT of support gems that the "Supportable Skills" tool tips say they can be placed but cannot as well as at least one that should not be placed.
each support gem says it can be placed in the tool tip but when you go to place it, they text over the socket hole says you cant. a few examples: Support Gem --> Ability --------------------------- Chain --> Wind Dancer Lightning Infusion --> Spark Second Wind --> Galvanic Shards ----- Specific Example: Controlled Destruction for Merc, the tooltip says it can go into multiple places, yet when attempting you cant. so... this is weird because i removed ALL gems then it would not allow ANY placement in any socket. Support Gem "Supportable Skills" popup text says: Explosive Grenade Flash Grenade Fragmentation Grenade Fragmentation Rounds Galvanic Shards Gas Grenade Herald of Thunder Load Fragmentation Rounds -- Load Galvanic Shards -- -- Note the last 2 are gem abilities and NOT socketable -- they should not be on this list. With NO gems in any sockets, i cannot place Controlled Destruction in ANYTHING it says it can. if i place Bursting Plague into one of the 2 sockets. it then allows it to be placed..... if i remove Bursting Plague the gem becomes... subdued (guessing it means it cannot be used but is socketed) again there is NOTHING that says this is wrong, nor any requirement ANYWHERE saying one thing or another to not alow these to happen. --please don't make them conditional placements.... either its placed from the tool tip or not. Oddity.. gem that shouldn't be placed can be ------------------------------------------- Skeletal Warrior, from a wand, can have the Magnified Effect put into it... what is it magnifying? its 40% more area effect... what is a skeletal warrior, from a wand, area effecting???? please let me know what you find. there are a LOT of gems not working as the text says they should.

" The "Supportable Skills" tooltip shows a list of skills, each next to an icon that indicates whether that skill can be supported by this Support Gem. This is a list of supportable skills for the Support Gem, Controlled Destruction. The only skill in this list it can support is Spark--this is indicated by the gem icon with a check mark to the left of Spark's name. The other skills have gem icons with X marks to indicate that they cannot be supported by Controlled Destruction. Last edited by Jadian#0111 on Jan 9, 2025, 3:20:59 AM

ok, i get it... missed it... that text is way to small for me.
but then why can i put it in gas grenade? and yes i 100% can, so long as bursting plague is socketed first. bug? |

also.. the list should ONLY show ones that CAN be socketed.
not a non list... if none... state: None |

" What type of skill does Bursting Plague trigger when a Plagued enemy dies? Judging by the fact that it can be supported by Controlled Destruction, it must be a spell. Support gems can affect what other supports can be socketed. For example, Hourglass support adds cooldowns to skills, and allows support gems that support skills with cooldowns to be supported. Regarding Skeletal Warrior and Magnify, which you asked about in the original post: Magnify should be increasing the Area of Effect of the Skeletal Warrior's attack. Strike Attacks are not single-target, they have an AoE--even for a player character's unarmed Punch. |
