The bonuses to chance and effect of Impale granted by raising the quality of Dread Banner are a little counterintuitive due to the aggressive rounding which isn't immediately obvious from the gem description. The table below is intended to help understanding the value of various combinations of gem level and quality and figuring out what combination to aim for.

Dread Banner is a bannerauraskill. While the banner is active, it buffs the user and nearby allies with impale chance with attacks, and debuffs nearby enemies with less accuracy. When placed after gaining stages by impaling, the banner's effects become more powerful, and it grants a buff that raises maximum Fortification.
Nearby Enemies have #% less Accuracy Rating, You and nearby Allies have #% chance to Impale Enemies on Hit with Attacks, and You and nearby Allies have #% increased Impale Effect are all aura effects that can be modified by #% increased effect of Auras.
The aura effects are always active whether the banner is placed or not.
Players and monsters must be inside the banner's radius to receive the aura effects when the banner is placed on the ground.

Notes and explanations
The values provided for gem level and quality are theoretical, with some only achievable using highly impractical or exquisitely rare gear, and are only there for reference. For most intents and purposes the practical values are limited to gem level 26 and quality 54%. Higher values can still be achieved using corrupted Dialla's MalefactionDialla's Malefaction Sage's RobeEnergy Shield: (79-90) Movement Speed: -3%Requires Level 37Gems can be Socketed in this Item ignoring Socket Colour Gems Socketed in Red Sockets have +2 to Level Gems Socketed in Green Sockets have +30% to Quality Gems Socketed in Blue Sockets gain 100% increased Experience Has no Attribute RequirementsHe took me by my hand, promised me power beyond compare.

Bold font indicates that the quality breakpoint can be achieved using only the gem's own quality bonus.
Assuming there are no other sources of aura effect on the passive tree and gear, a corrupted Dread Banner at level 20 with 22–23% quality will always outperform the gem at level 21 with sub-20% quality. The reason for this is that both round down to 21% increased Impale effect while 20% quality also provides an extra percent point of chance to Impale. Having a level 21 gem with 20% quality is, of course, superior to both, as it hits the breakpoints for both the chance and effect of Impale.
In terms of a DPS increase, hitting the next breakpoint on the chance to Impale is generally more worthwhile than Impale effect. Thus, since the chance is flat at all levels and is only raised by gem quality, it's more practical to support Dread Banner with Enhance rather than with Empower if given an opportunity, unless the latter can serve a double purpose by supporting another DPS-increasing gem. A level 21 Dread Banner with 20% quality supported by a level 4 Enhance will be able to reach a 24% increase on both chance and effect of Impale; whereas if supported by level 4 Empower it would only have 22% increased chance and 25% increased effect, which works out to a significantly lower DPS increase as well as increased mana reservation due to Empower's higher mana multiplier.
