Lunar and Solar Gems
| Augments and minor slotted item customization | |||

Lunar and Solar Gems are a crafting system introduced in Update 69 with the Magic of Myth Drannor expansion. The system uses special versions of standard Augment Slots to allow players to customize items with Profane and Artifact bonuses.
Items using this crafting system include special Moon and Sun Augment Slots, which are accessed just like standard augment slots (including the ability to be removed from a slot using a Jeweler's Tool Kit.) Players can slot Lunar and Solar Gems into these slots to provide their bonuses. Like named items, Lunar and Solar Gems can drop in the loot lists of specific quests.
Lunar Gems primarily provide Profane bonuses, while Solar Gems primarily provide Artifact bonuses. As usual, multiple effects with the same bonus type don't stack. A limited number of gems provide different types of bonuses; see the table below for details.
Lunar and Solar Gems are designed as an alternative to named item sets. Myth Drannor introduced heroic (ML:1) and legendary (ML:30) gems, many of which were then included with the next adventure pack, Fall of the Night Brigade; epic gems (ML:20) were subsequently introduced with the release of Tavern Tales in Update 73. It appears the system has been adopted gamewide as a replacement for large-scale set bonuses, although the appearance of the Last Line of Defense set in Myth Drannor raid loot indicates set bonuses have not necessarily been completely retired.
Slots[edit]
Sun and Moon augment slots are designed to appear on dedicated equipment slots.
| Augment slot | Equipment slot | List |
|---|---|---|
| Sun | Armor, Helm, Cloak, Goggle, Trinket | Sun augment slot items |
| Moon | Gloves, Bracers, Belt, Necklace, Boots | Moon augment slot items |
| Neither | Ring, Rune Arm, Orb, Quiver, Ammunition, Weapon/Shield devs intend to keep it that way in future updates |
Tables[edit]
The below tables list the effects, values, and rarity status of Lunar and Solar Gems. Note that while every gem released so far has had a Heroic and Legendary version, only some have released Epic versions - if a Gem has yet to have its Epic version released, its value in the "ML20" column below will be a red link.
