Wondering if anyone knows exactly how multi-colored jewels work with this. Say I socket a Yellow & Blue Jewel, and also have one Red jewel socketed. I know that multi-colored jewels can satisfy multiple needs, I'm wondering if they also work against the user. Thanks for any info.

FYI, any gem can be inserted in any socket. You just lose the socket bonus, which is crap most of the time anyway. So this metagem can work with Hallowed set without any problems.

In order to get this gem bonus to work for me I have:

2x Teardrop Living Ruby -

2x Luminous Noble Topaz -

1x Royal Nightseye

These are all very good healing gems and I think its definitely worth it... I'll take any extra threat reduction I can get. :)

Ok, this is how i see it. Hallowed has these slots:
blue: 3
Red: 2
Yell: 1

If hybrid counts as one for each collour, this is what you do:

2 Green (blue slot)
2 Orange
1 Red/yellow/orange
1purple (blue slot)

This will give you:

blue: 3
Red: 4
Yell: 4

Which satisfy the meta gem. Voila

Does this Gem stack with Enchant Cloak - Subtlety?

my healing gear has lots of blue sockets and it would kill me to see all those sockets which could have 9 healing 4 spirit in them have a green gem with crap in it....

guess if i through luminescent noble topaz's in my primal mooncloth set in the yellow and blue sockets, i'ld lose the +3 int bonus, and gain +4 int from the gem, (+1 net int per item) and lose the 2 mana/5 and i wouldnt be taking a huge ding in my stats overall. really wish this was "more blue gems than anything else!"

Kommentar von Redio

I purchased this meta gem and with my current gear I only have 4 gems socketed. 2 red gems, 1 yellow gem and the meta. I currently have NO bonus. This particular meta is bugged. The only thing I can think of is the required colored gems MUST match their socket or it does not count toward the requirement. However, there is nothing stating this on Blizzard's official website or in the ingame instructions in the tool tips. 110g for NOTHING.

General rule of thumb for satisfying this gem requirement easily (and still keeping your socket bonuses):

Fill all of your blue sockets with "Royal" type gems (+Heal and mp5) (or other purple colored gems).

Fill all of your yellow sockets with "Luminous" type gems (+heal and int ). (or other orange).

Then count up all your blue sockets (sockets, not gems), then subtract the # of yellow sockets. The number you get, plus one, is how many red sockets you need to fill with Luminous type gems. You can put Royal gems in the rest of the red slots.

This way you can get as many heal/mp5 gems as possible, still keep all your socket bonuses, and satisfy this meta requirement.

If you have a ton of sockets (or a lot of blue/red slots) and not a lot of yellow sockets, then it might not be worth it to get this gem and lose all the mp5 you could be getting from gems.

You might want to get Insightful Earthstorm Diamond (12 int and mana proc), or Mystical Skyfire Diamond (chance for next cast to be half cast time ) instead because those gem requirements will be easier to meet.

Yea I just socketed this diamond but it's grayed out in my socket for my helm and the plus healing did not take effect. Any ideas as to what I should do?

Kommentar von Sylent

I can confirm that you do not need a blue gem for this to work. I have the meta gem activated by only using a +18 healer in the helmet along with the meta, Luminous noble topaz in my neck, and one in my shoulder. I also have an epic red healing gem in my shoulders. So I was able to activate the gem based on having only 2 red and 2 yellow gems. A blue is definitely not required

This would be the greatest dps metagem only if it didn't have that weird gem combination. It is very difficult for a warrior or a rogue to get an item with a blue slot in it unless they use a crappy blue/purple gem. Just get -2% threat to cloak and for warriors, get the 24 ap gem.

Kommentar von Sophistie

This meta is obviously a reasonable choice for raiding paladin stacking +healing to downrank HL and FoL, filling 1 slot with 9heal4int/11heal4int/11heal5int orange and all remaining slots with +18/+22healing reds. This kind of pally doesnt required that much mp5 with the gems in addition to what is already available on t5/t6-level raiding stuff and this metagem can therefore be a viable choice for them.

Kommentar von cypis

As of patch 2.3.2 this meta only requires more Red gems than Blue gems. Awesome change.

Kommentar von latortuga

To expand, the reason this change is so awesome is that, by and large, green and blue gems are a poor choice for a healer and are the only ones that would make it hard to fulfill this meta requirement. Using any combination of purple and yellow gems along with at least 1 of red or orange will fulfill this meta. And of course, as has been mentioned in above comments, there's no requirement to use any blue gems so if you don't use any purple gems, any combination of yellow red or orange (with at least 1 being red/orange) gems will activate this meta.

this gem is far better for a healer in my opinion:
http://www.wowhead.com/?item=25901

it recently (in patch 2.3) got stealth buffed to a 5% procc chance, basically giving 15 mana per cast.
cast a spell.....
..every 5 seconds -> 12 casts/minute -> 180 mana/minute -> 15mp5
..every 3 seconds -> 20 casts/minute -> 300 mana/minute -> 25mp5
..every 2 seconds -> 30 casts/minute -> 450 mana/minute -> 37.5mp5
..every 1.5 seconds -> 40 casts/minute -> 600 mana/minute -> 50mp5

looks far better than 26heal to me.

For a raiding perspective:

From my raid healing experience in SSC and TK as a resto Shammy, there are only 2 reasons why you will get aggro:
1) its either because there is a problem with the tank(s).
2) you're healing during an aggro dump phase, examples being Hydross or Leotheras in SSC, when you shouldn't be.

Both of those reasons are avoidable and 2% threat reduction is so incredibly small it seems a waste of a meta gem. Ultimately it comes down to your stats, but considering you can get +18 healing gems for normal sockets, this meta gem does seem fairly weak. Personally I use Insightful Earthstorm Diamond as the regen is good, and means other sockets can be more +healing focused instead of mana regen. However, like everything gem related it comes down to how best to balance your class, playstyle and gear (inc enchants).

Kommentar von Calidus

Once you start doing BT/MH, you'll start valuing raw +heal more than mp5.
At least that's the case for me:
I'm a resto druid and while I always went for the Insightful Earthstorm Diamond before,
this meta gem seems more appealing to me now.

The threat reduction is an added perk.

Kommentar von 169100

Okay so the gem I normally use being a resto druid is the epic healing/spirit gem and the gem says that it fits a blue or a red socket... I have more of these gems than actually "red" gems so would I still technically meet the requirements?

Kommentar von Padman

What is "Requires more Red gems than Blue gems"?

Kommentar von Badadz

I can confirm this works with all red gems. (No blues required at all)

Kommentar von 349035

The comment about not needing any blue gems at all, that all red gems is fine to activate this should NOT have been downrated. That's exactly the information I was looking for - and to anyone that thinks "Obviously 0<X" you don't know Blizzard very well. I would not at all have put it past them to make you have at least 1 blue gem for the reds to be greater than ;p
