1. yes
2. no, 2nd gem you put on the same character will only give you 1.5 damage ( i think ) but not the same as the first get. Thats why it doesnt stack
3. 2 damage is what you get when you slot the gem in an equipment, based on my observation, see that whirling thingy around a character? thats where the damage effect 5.5% comes to play it also adds on your damage stat.

Isn't the +2 damage because Lepre is only a level 1 item? When it would be a level 41 item then it would give + 7.5 (the exact amount of buff depends on the level of the item you put it on I believe).

i have my mythic gem on a lvl 41 mythic weapon so i can assure you that it gives 2 damage across all levels.

So why are they saying here it can give +7 dmg (based on the level of the selected item)?

I have to admit I have not read some of the other posts about the Paraselcus Stone so I am probably missing something. I will worry about that when I get to Plat tier. 8-P

The Gem gives 2.0 dmg PLUS ONCE 5.5 dmg ! So when you add 3 of these gems it will still only be PLUS 5.5 dmg and not plus 16.5 dmg, which means it cant stack, which also means there is no point for having more then 1 of this gem in all gear that you wear!

This is from the Dev, Carapace...

Ive had to make an adjustment to the Paracelsus Stone given some internal calculations. The idea and way it works are the same, however the base damage is now 2.0 instead of 1.5, to keep things playing nicely.

so from the examples stated before:

1 - 2 + 5.5 = 7.5
2 - 2+ 7.5 = 9.5
3 - 2 + 9.5 = 11.5

etc

This is across all gear, not per piece of gear. If you managed to slot everything you own (and give up all those stats?!?!) You would be looking at:

15 * 2 + 5.5, or 35.5

I think mathematically it doesn't balance out if you neglect your primary stat over these, and may end up having equal damage or less, I'm sure someone will figure it out

Sorry for the changes, but I'm keeping everyone informed best as we can, as relevantly as we can within our means.

Or +10 to both items?
This is correct, only the first one will apply the additional 5.5, all others will be a flat 1.5.

And for emphasis on whether to use more than one Energizeric commented,

I did some calculations, and it does not pay to have more than 1 of these on a character as you would actually lose damage compared to having a grand gem in that second slot.

Couldn't really quote properly cause the thread is locked, but you get the gist.
