Crystal Crafting

During your adventures in Sanctuary you will find a variety of new items, including crystals that allow you to forge powerful Crafted items. This process is simple, just transmute the following three components in the Horadric Cube.

  1. Magic Item
  2. Crystal
  3. Gem
Blessed Crystal Works with any quality of gem. Yields an item with iLvl -10% of transmuted item
Regal Crystal Works only with perfect gems. Yields an item with iLvl 94.
Divine Crystal Works only with perfect gems. Yields an item with iLvl 99. Gem bonuses are doubled.
Worldstone Crystal Works only with perfect gems. Yields an item with iLvl 99. Gem bonuses are tripled.

The Crafted item will be the same base type as the Magic item you used, with an item level (ilvl) that is dependent on the type of crystal used. The strongest magic affixes are only available to high affix level (alvl) items, and there are alvl thresholds where weaker magic affixes will stop being able to spawn. For information on the difference between ilvl and alvl (and formulae to calculate the two), visit The Arreat Summit or The Amazon Basin websites. In most cases, items with an ilvl greater than 92 will have a significant amount of weak affixes removed from the pool, and items with an ilvl of 99 will have even more weak affixes removed. The end result is that high ilvl items result in better and more reliable crafts.

In addition to up to four magic affixes Crafted items spawn with, three bonus properties are granted in accordance with the Gem you have used (excluding Ring, Amulet and Quiver crafts which only get two bonus properties). The following section lists the specific bonuses granted to different item types for each Gem. Note that the magnitude of these bonuses can change (doubled, tripled!) depending on the type of crystal you have used.
