'''Augmentation Gems'''
<br><br>
Once you reach the higher levels of power on your character, you will need ways to spend experience. This is where Augmentation Gems come in. These gems provide unique ways to enhance your characters from things such as lessening damage received, increasing your number of pack slots, reducing the sting of death and much more.
<br><br>
By completing a quest to acquire a gem and paying an experience point cost, you can add one of these permanent abilities to your character. These gems are one of the most powerful forms of character advancement for heroes in Dereth.
<br><br>
'''Luminance Augmentations'''
<br><br>
Experience one of the newest end-game mechanics, Luminance. Players over level 200 can now increase their abilities even more with this new feature. Improve everything from your Critical Hit success, to your ability to craft. As with everything in Asheron's Call, the choice is yours!"
