A new gem removal and replacement feature, along with a color-specification option for fusing, has been added to make managing and utilizing a wider variety of gems more convenient. The removal and replacement feature allows players to extract gems already equipped in slots and swap them out for new ones.
Previously, once a gem was equipped, it could not be removed; equipping a new gem in that slot would destroy the existing one. For stat-related gems like Attack, HP, or Defense, there has long been a consensus on using percentage-based options, so there was rarely a need to swap them. However, it was a different story for other gems, particularly yellow ones.
Depending on the meta, players would sometimes fill slots with Precision gems or utilize critical hit damage gems. Recently, as major bosses have become tankier, requiring armor penetration, many players have had to overhaul their setups to prioritize that stat.
The problem was that for players who haven't been playing for a long time, acquiring top-tier Grade 6 gems isn't easy, making gem management extremely stressful. If a player followed advice to switch to a 'best-in-slot' gem only to hear later that it was no longer optimal, they had no way to recover their investment.
Now, that burden is significantly reduced. By going to the Relic-Gem page, clicking a desired gem, and pressing the 'Remove' button—or selecting a new gem and pressing 'Replace'—you can extract the equipped gem and return it to your inventory. The cost is 1 Gem Removal Ticket or 100 Magic Stones. While not free, the low Magic Stone requirement makes it quite affordable. Furthermore, as mentioned, since most players only really swap yellow gems, this shouldn't be a major concern.


Additionally, a new 'Fuse' system has been added to help players obtain the specific gems they need more easily: the color-specification feature. Previously, fusing only allowed players to combine lower-grade gems into a higher-grade one, regardless of color. Since both the materials and the results were random, this wasn't an issue for beginners, but as players neared the end of their progression, the chances of getting a useful result dropped significantly.
Now, however, you can specify the desired color when fusing. When color specification is enabled, only gems of the same color are used as materials, and the result is guaranteed to be that same color. In other words, if you fuse red gems, you will only get a red gem in return.
Since the Chaos Battlefield—the primary source for gem farming—drops specific colors based on the stage, you can now focus on farming the dungeons that provide the colors you need, making it much easier to craft higher-grade gems. Of course, the A–D grade range for the final Grade 5 gems produced through fusion remains random, so to guarantee an A-Grade gem, you will still need to use crafting or continue mass-producing them.
