Tirakai's Maul
The hammer will gain different proprieties depending on the tier and color of the gem it is imbued with. The material level of the hammer will also be set equal to the tier of the gem used, and its base stats will change accordingly.
The selected gem is not consumed by the imbue process, and can be recovered by choosing another gem later.
The hammer will still use physical crit chance even if its damage type is turned into some non-physical element.
Each gem has a "color" shown in its description, which refers to its latent damage type and may not match its graphics. Below are the specific effects granted, by color, with special damagetypes for some unique gems:
