# Gemstones

Raw Gemstones can be found by [processing](/pawtato-land/gameplay/resources/resource-processing.md) Stone with a [Sledgehammer](/pawtato-land/gameplay/tools/masonry-tools.md) and also be found on [Adventure](/pawtato-land/gameplay/adventure.md) by [Heroes](/pawtato-land/gameplay/heroes.md).

Gems have many use cases, including - but not limited to:

* **Socket** into Equipment for additional boosts
* **Material** to craft [Broken mention](broken://pages/RLssioKVwfZd2JocxvG2) and other [Equipment](/pawtato-land/gameplay/equipment.md)
* **Material** to craft [**Skill Gems**](/pawtato-land/gameplay/heroes/skills.md)
* Required component to merge Fragments into [**Ascension Tablets**](/pawtato-land/gameplay/heroes/ascension.md)

There are different **tiers** to gems and all of them can be extracted from a raw gemstone using a [**Lapidary Set**](/pawtato-land/gameplay/tools/masonry-tools.md). A skilled Jeweller can also upgrade lower tier gems to the more pristine versions.

The different gems also resonate with certain themes:

* **Topaz**: Defense, Agility
* **Ruby**: Physical Damage, Strength
* **Amethyst**: Utility, Dexterity
* **Sapphire**: Magical Damage, Intelligence
* **Emerald**: Support, Vitality
