However the additional damage gems preoc rate is somewhere around 5-10%. Low enough to make using it a waste.

Why waste? it's 100% proc on your crit hit lol

Edit: We are talking 2 different gems hehehehe

it is not..

 

it is somewhere like 5-10% as sorcerer states.

Which is also why i am also starting to think they are a complete POS waste.

If you read it. I said I wasn't sure about the 1 crit gem. <~ This one, not sure what the proc rate on it is.

The 5-10% proc rate is on the additional damage gem. <~This is the PoS gem.

we are talking about the ruby which is suposed to PROC additional damage right?

Because if you think it proc's that additional damage everytime you crit, you are sadly wrong.  

 

There has been a couple of threads of people complaining about it.

 

It is not a 100% proc on crit like a leech amethyst is.  

This is why i think i may agree a + critical ruby maybe a better gem overall.

you guys are ill informed, the additional damage gems are on a 5 second internal cooldown.. it's not a percentage chance. Sill worth using.

The additional damage gem works fine on my force master. Most players assume it procs and adds the damage onto your regular attacks, however, it adds it as a separate damage stack entirely, which is currently why i auto attack level 45's to death after one stun in open world. yes, the level 45's that were killing the level 26 at soulstone scar, I am  looking at you.

Crit ruby can be traded, but not listed in market.  Proc chance is tied to gem quality and internal cooldown and even number of hit is tied to gem type.  I hear the top line crit ruby can do multiple hits.

If it isn't Ap or drain, it's unlikely to have any noticeable impact.  So you can just use whatever you want.  Additional damage isn't as good as it seems because its a proc chance, not 100%.  The damage isn't modified by anything, and it can't crit.

It's very easy to get that critical ruby gem

you can only get it from uncommon gem box (green name) pentagonal one is fine proc rate is fine also no cooldown.

a prove is here (not my vid)

at 0:16 - 0:20 you can see it's proc 2 time back to back.

square ruby crit proc rate is around 2.5% (tested on dummies), which is basically equivalent to +1% crit rate (at 60% crit rate).

 

square ruby additional damage proc rate on the other hand is around 7.5% (for 100 additional damage), which traslates to 7.5 additional damage on every hit (or equivalently, around 1 AP).

 

So, at least when comparing same grade gems, critical one wins by a large margin.

To give an idea how good this gemsy is.I was using a raw damage ruby,i switched for one of these crit gems a pentagonal one.It shaved 22 seconds of my kill timer of killing mushins darkness than my previous attempts without it

What class are you and how high was your crt rate before putting on the gem? You said you killed Mushin 22 seconds faster with this crt gem but what addtional damage ruby gem were you using before? I'm an destroyer with 50% crt and using the 360 addtional damage ruby at the moment. Not sure if i should switch to this crt gem.
