How do the weapon trails work?

Hamster_of_sorrow · 10-05-2010, 02:24 PM

recently i put an ice damage gem (+15) in a spear and now it has the blue weapon trail. but yesterday i put an electrical damage gem (+9) in an axe. i am not able to see the electrical weapon trail. is this because the gem i put in the axe was not a great gem or is it a glitch? neither of these weapons were magnanite or boss weapons.

Iirc the trails only work with great gems.

As far as I know, anything above 6 is classified as a great gem, correct me if wrong.

Also, I have this problem as well. My weapon has a +14 damage bonus gem in it and I see the weapon trails. My other weapon has a +7 gem and I do not see the weapon trails.

I thought gems between +6 and +9 are classified as 'Major' and +10 to +15 were classified as 'Great'.

I have a +13 slash gem, and no one sees any trails, does physical damage make a trail?

physical damage does not make a trail, only elemental does.

the gem in the axe is only a major gem. i think any type of gem should make a weapon trail.
