Threshold jewel

Threshold jewels are a type of unique jewels.

These jewels grant improvements to a specific active skill if enough attribute points have been allocated within its radius. Some threshold jewels add new gem tags to the skill - for example; Pitch Darkness grants Burning Arrow the AoE property. In that case the appropriate support gems will affect that portion of the skill. Threshold jewels will also enhance the Vaal version of a skill.

Note: You do not need the threshold jewel in order to utilize the new gem tags added for linked support gems (ie. Less Duration Support can be used with Burning Arrow without Pitch Darkness socketed).

All threshold jewels have a medium radius and require at least 40 points of the attribute corresponding to the skill gem's color. They do not need to be allocated, but simply require the total possible amount of attribute points within radius meet the threshold.
