This news comes while Diablo 3 continues to receive support, including a patch that updated the game’s gem system. Patch 2.4.1 released earlier this year. In the update, Blizzard made changes to the way Legendary gems worked in the game.
The update has given players more options when it comes to how they want to customized their gear by adding gems that can accommodate certain play styles. It it now possible for players to use gems to maximize the effectiveness of activities such as gold and experience farming. While Blizzard has not fully made changes to every gem, they feel that these current changes will provide a new way to give players more options in terms of customizing their gear.
