What makes Gem Fragments even more valuable now is the dual functionality they offer. In addition to Diablo IV Gold crafting traditional Gems,they're also needed for the more complex and powerful Horadric Jewels. This dual demand means players need to be far more intentional with how they gather and spend their fragments,especially as they move into the higher Torment difficulty levels. Crafting Horadric Jewels: A Costly but Rewarding Endeavor To access Horadric Jewels,players must progress into Diablo 4's Torment difficulties and uncover Horadric Tomes,which are typically found within Horadric Strongrooms. These Tomes unlock new crafting recipes at the Jeweler,enabling the production of Horadric Jewels that augment Horadric Spells in powerful new ways. However,crafting even a single Horadric Jewel is no small feat. Players must collect 45,000 Gem Fragments—divided evenly among three different types—as well as 3,000 Horadric Phials. This places Horadric Jewels somewhere between Royal and Grand Gems in terms of overall crafting cost. While not as steep as the 100,000 fragments needed for a single Grand Gem,this is still a significant investment that forces players to prioritize where and how they use their fragments. Given this high cost,players are encouraged to plan their builds carefully. Experimenting with different socketable combinations could quickly drain precious resources,so committing to a well-thought-out strategy is key. For those who want to maximize their performance in endgame content,investing in the right Horadric Jewels will provide tangible benefits that are well worth the effort. Improved Fragment Acquisition in Season 9 Recognizing the increased demand for Gem Fragments,Blizzard has significantly expanded the number of ways players can acquire them in Season 9. In previous seasons,fragments were harder to come by,especially in the quantities needed to craft top-tier Gems. Players would often find themselves grinding for Diablo IV Gold for sale hours just to collect enough for one high-end enhancement.
