Is this true?

[Fysik]

Yes its true, all weapon with the new path higher than True Profane will have 6 gem socket.

 

Old Path: True Profane > Awakened Siren

 

New Path: True Profane > Awakened Devil (all gem sockets get reset, you now have 6 socket with only 2 unlock, you must remove gem before you can upgrade to this stage)

 

In TW and JP they actually have 3 tier replacing the 2 Siren tier: True Profane > Devil > Awakened Devil > True Devil

 

IIRC Jonathan mentioned we're moving Awakened Siren to Awakened Devil thus skipping the Devil part, but I'll believe that when patch goes live.

 

Therefore, you should not unlock gem sockets for alts with True Profane or lower once the patch goes live.

Oh cool! Sad we cannot use 2 of the same type. Gems other than "the usual" ones seem quite useless, tho I read somewhere we get new type of gems (elemental) at some point.

We'll get gems with + attack power so you'll want one of every color regardless.

any info on how we we will be able to get them? ATM the only way is to buy them from Faction NPC for ridiculous amount of BW stones or via BW chest.

hmm no clue how NA is gonna do it, TW gave most of it out through events and rng box.  Here's my BM's weapon on TW with the gems for a closer look.

You will need to use gem hammer, you get 2 free unlock initially and another 1 free once you upgraded to I believe its True Devil so the remaining 3 you need to use gem hammer.

 

Its been so long I don't remember how much it cost per socket, I wanna say its more than 3 per socket.
