    Good video Shimi, as time goes on, you might want to pay attention to where your viewers are coming from (around the world). even though you can speak good english, it might be a good idea to change your language in DI to "English" when doing your videos. This is only a suggestion and I would only apply it if you see that more of your viewers are based in the U.S. - Gutzu

      Good suggestion, and I was thinking about this myself, wondering how much of a difference it actually makes to my viewers watching who don’t speak Spanish or whatever language I have the game in lol. I will switch to English for the next guide video, and you can let me know how much of a difference it makes for you.

    out of topic sir, i just wondering people selling plat on the chat, is that legit? somehow i got tempted and want to buy, since i just play a month and really need those 5 star gems to catch up people in BG. i got XP buff from the server previously (1500%), so right now i'm at paragon 1152. Also another question, i always wondering, now in inferno BG, i am at gold 3, but i always match with legend or gold 5 with crazy resonance (mine only 800). Do you have any idea why they arrange like this? even when i was at cap 799, i always play in inferno BG, i've got a lot complain from my teammates due to my low resonance and it sucks actually. Please kindly your advices, thank you. I subscribed your channel.

      Thank you for your support and questions!
      Plat sellers that you see in world chat can get your account permanently banned, as that’s against the terms of service. For gem advice for a f2p or low spender, I’d go for blood-soaked jade as your only 5 star for now. Even at rank 1, it gives you 10% movement speed, which is great for most PvP and pve content. It also increases your damage, and reduces damage taken, more the higher you rank it.
      Aside from that, I’d pick a combination of 1 and 2 star gems that are good for your class, or a versatile combination if you plan to class change. There’s a pretty crazy difference in the amount of duplicate gems and gem power it takes to rank up 1, 2, and 5 star gems.
      Once you start getting any of your gems to rank 10 (which should be relatively easy with a 1 star gem), an efficient use of money would be to awaken one slot at a time with orbs, choosing a slot whose awakened effect gives damage or cooldown reduction.
      Although higher resonance players have the advantage in PvP, all else equal, I know many lower resonance players who punch way above their weight by choosing mostly 1 and 2 star gems and awakening bonuses that really synergize with the rest of their build.
      There are other TH-camrs who have videos making specific gem recommendations for f2p players, some of them general, and others class specific. I could maybe recommend a video or two depending on your class.

      Wow.. your explanation is very comprehensive. i will like all of your video in youtube after this. Recently, im using blood knight and i love using dash skill during PVP or PVE since IMO i can get some kills and be on the mid of leaderboard as long as my opponent reso not more than 3k in general. For legendary gems, currently im using Berseker, ML, Pain Clasp, Viper, P&C, Everlasting Torment, Maw, Fervent Fang. Do you have any idea which one i should replace with BJ? @@ShimshonDI i've spend $100 already and i used most of it for cosmetics since i don't really understand the build. im kinda regret that. Thank you so much brother. Keep up with your content!

      ⁠​⁠​⁠​⁠​⁠​⁠​⁠​⁠​⁠@@Adilla天7Hhey sorry for the delayed response. Let me start by telling you which of those gems I’d definitely continue to use in PvP: ML, pain clasp, viper, and maw.
      As for which of the others is your weakest link, that’s a harder call imho. You could make a case for swapping out berserker’s eye for pvp, since it increases the damage you take as well. However, it’s still a popular pvp gem if it’s r10 and awakened. If not, that’d be my call. But definitely use it for pve even if not r10.
      P&C is generally considered decent, but most players don’t like that it alternates between primary and skill damage, so that you’re not getting much benefit if you’re using mostly the other at any given time.
      I think of everlasting torment as being most clearly good for a crusader using banner, as it requires a crit. However, it may be good enough with mother’s lament to be strong for you. Just always prioritize crit chance on gear slots that can have it (whether or not you’re using torment - it’s the most impactful dps attribute).
      Lastly, fervent fang is generally considered decent for PvP, more or less on par with P&C. However, it likewise has a drawback: it takes 10 hits to ramp up to maximum effect. This might happen surprisingly quickly (at the same time as you see the second beam from 4 grace), but it’s ideally suited to raids due to this ramping up mechanic.
      Based on the above, I would replace P&C, and safely use it as gem power. This is because P&C is equally B tier imho for both pve and PvP, whereas the other weak links for PvP could be good for pve.

      @@ShimshonDI Thank you Shimi.. recently i just got Bottle Hope from the drop, so i should replace this P&C with this one? also, is blessing of worthy really worth it? i had this one also but im using it for gem power Since i want to have all my gems rank 5 to get magic finds.

    • @ShimshonDI

      @latifarifudin546 yes, I think bottled hope is a good replacement for P&C. Blessing of the worthy was considered one of the best melee gems from the original set, but as more gems have been added (far outpacing the two extra slots), I’d say it’s one you could take or leave. It’s one that I’m considering making dormant myself as I get some strong 1 and 2 stars to r10 and awaken slots.
