Metin2 Gemstone system: socket types, bonus stats, and enhancement odds\n2|\n3|Gemstones are socketable items that can be inserted into equipment equipment to provide random stat bonuses, such as increased attack, defense, HP, and other combat values. The socket system adds another layer of character customization, as players can tailor their gear's bonus profile by swapping gemstones at will. Each equipment piece has a limited number of socket slots, and higher-level gemstones provide stronger bonuses. Gemstones can be obtained through monster drops, synthesis, and the in-game item mall, and they can be removed or swapped using special items non-destructively. The enhancement odds for gemstones follow the standard Metin2 probability curve, with higher-tier gemstones having lower success rates. Players often socket gemstones to balance their offensive and defensive stats, and the optimal gemstone setup varies by character class and playstyle.\n4|\n5|
