Wreath of Lightning, rank 1.

Wreath of Lightning is a Legendary Gem findable only from Greater Rift Guardians in Reaper of Souls.

Legendary gems can only be socketed in rings and amulets worn by a character (not by a Follower) and provide dramatic and powerful bonuses that are huge upgrades over any normal gems in the game.

All legendary gems improve with upgrades to rank 50, which can only be obtained via the NPC Urshi who appears after the death of a Guardian of a Greater Rift that is not completed in time.


Gem Properties[edit | edit source]

The effect is similar to that granted by the Conduit Pylon in a Greater Rift, and the original tooltip refered to the effect as a "mini Conduit."

The madwoman Arianne believed she could cut a gem that would make for
her a hood of lightning. "Lightning," she was heard to mutter "On my head!"
Her body was discovered some weeks later, with no hair, clutching this gem.
