# Gem & Socket

### **What is a Gem?**

A Gem can be used to increase a Sneaker's Attribute by inserting it into a corresponding Sneaker's Socket.

For example, only Efficiency Gems can be placed into Efficiency Sockets.

### **What are the types of Gems?**

There are four types of Gems, each representing a different Attribute:

1. Yellow: Efficiency
2. Blue: Luck
3. Pink: Charm
4. Green: Karma

### **What are Gem levels?**

Gems have 10 levels:

<table data-header-hidden><thead><tr><th width="134"></th><th width="177"></th><th width="272"></th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td><strong>Gem Level</strong></td><td><strong>Attribute</strong></td><td><strong>Special Effect</strong></td></tr><tr><td>1</td><td>+3</td><td>NA</td></tr><tr><td>2</td><td>+10</td><td>+10% Base Attribute</td></tr><tr><td>3</td><td>+30</td><td>+50% Base Attribute</td></tr><tr><td>4</td><td>+100</td><td>+200% Base Attribute</td></tr><tr><td>5</td><td>+200</td><td>+700 % Base Attribute</td></tr><tr><td>6</td><td>+500</td><td>+2,100 % Base Attribute</td></tr><tr><td>7</td><td>+1,000</td><td>+6,300 % Base Attribute</td></tr><tr><td>8</td><td>+2,000</td><td>+18,000 % Base Attribute</td></tr><tr><td>9</td><td>+5,000</td><td>+50,000% Base Attribute</td></tr><tr><td>10</td><td>+10,000</td><td>+100,000% Base Attribute</td></tr></tbody></table>

***NOTE: Information in the table above may be subject to change during the testing phase with short notice.***

### **What is a Socket?**

Sockets are available to Uncommon and above Quality Sneakers, the higher the Sneaker Quality, the better potential Socket Quality. Users insert Gems into the Sockets to boost the Sneakers' Attributes. They will be able to see the Socket Type without unlocking the Socket, but **NOT** the Socket Quality.

<table data-header-hidden data-full-width="false"><thead><tr><th width="199"></th><th width="104"></th><th width="119"></th><th width="104"></th><th width="104"></th><th width="114"></th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td></td><td><strong>Common Socket %</strong></td><td><strong>Uncommon Socket %</strong></td><td><strong>Rare Socket %</strong></td><td><strong>Epic Socket %</strong></td><td><strong>Legendary Socket %</strong></td></tr><tr><td><strong>Common Sneaker</strong></td><td>0</td><td>0</td><td>0</td><td>0</td><td>0</td></tr><tr><td><strong>Uncommon Sneaker</strong></td><td>30</td><td>60</td><td>10</td><td>0</td><td>0</td></tr><tr><td><strong>Rare Sneaker</strong></td><td>10</td><td>30</td><td>50</td><td>10</td><td>0</td></tr><tr><td><strong>Epic Sneaker</strong></td><td>10</td><td>10</td><td>30</td><td>40</td><td>10</td></tr><tr><td><strong>Legendary Sneaker</strong></td><td>0</td><td>10</td><td>20</td><td>30</td><td>40</td></tr></tbody></table>

***NOTE: Information in the table above may be subject to change during the testing phase with short notice.***

Users are able to unlock Sockets by burning GGT once the Sneaker reaches Level 5/15/20/25 respectively. Higher Socket Quality will give an extra boost to the inserted Gem's Attribute:

<table data-header-hidden data-full-width="false"><thead><tr><th width="373"></th><th width="328"></th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td><strong>Socket Quality</strong></td><td><strong>Attribute Bonus</strong></td></tr><tr><td><strong>Common</strong></td><td>100%</td></tr><tr><td><strong>Uncommon</strong></td><td>110% </td></tr><tr><td><strong>Rare</strong></td><td>120% </td></tr><tr><td><strong>Epic</strong></td><td>130% </td></tr><tr><td><strong>Legendary</strong></td><td>150% </td></tr></tbody></table>

***NOTE: Information in the table above may be subject to change during the testing phase with short notice.***

### **Cost to insert and remove Gems**

Inserting a Gem into a Socket is free once the Socket is unlocked. However, **removing a Gem requires burning GGT**. Alternatively, users can opt to destroy (burn) the Gem at no cost.

### **Shuffle Socket Quality and Type**

Users can burn GGT to shuffle the Quality and Type of **ALL** Sockets. In order to do this, they need to unlock all four Sockets and remove all inserted Gems **(coming soon)**.
