Usage

Players can only socket in one Watcher's Eye in their skill tree at a time. This restriction was placed to prevent overpowered builds and to increase the value of the jewel. Due to this restriction, players are forced to find a single jewel that has all the mods that they want, rather than simply using 3 separate jewels with one mod each. This jewel is often one of the most expensive pieces of any build.

Version history

Version	Changes
3.12.0	Can now grant 10 to 15% increased Energy Shield Recovery Rate while affected by Discipline (from 20 to 30%). Can now grant 6 to 10% of Maximum Mana as Extra Maximum Energy Shield while affected by Clarity (from 12 to 18%). Can now grant 10 to 15% increased Mana Recovery Rate while affected by Clarity (from 20 to 30%). Can now grant 10 to 15% increased Life Recovery Rate while affected by Vitality (from 20 to 30%). Can now grant 0.8 to 1.2% of Damage leeched as Life while affected by Vitality (from 1 to 1.5%). Can now grant 8 to 12% increased Recovery rate of Life and Energy Shield while affected by Malevolence (from 15 to 20%). Can now grant +20 to 30% to Critical Strike Multiplier while affected by Precision (from 30 to 50%). Existing versions can be updated with the use of a Divine Orb. New versions can now grant 1 to 1.5% of Life Regenerated per second while affected by Vitality (instead of 100 to 140 Life Regeneration per second). Existing versions of this item with this modifier are unaffected.
3.8.0	Can no longer gain +% to Cold and Chaos Damage over Time Multipliers while affected by Malevolence. Instead now has +% to Damage over Time Multiplier while affected by Malevolence. This affected all versions of the item. The mana cost reduction while affected by Clarity now specifically applies to non-channeled skills. The mana leech while affected by Wrath is now Energy Shield leech while affected by Wrath. These two changes do NOT affect existing items, and cannot be obtained with a Divine Orb.
3.6.2	Reduced the value of the "x% increased Maximum total Recovery per second from Energy Shield Leech while affected by Zealotry" modifier found on the Watcher's Eye Unique Jewel from 180% to 30%. This modifier was unintentionally six times higher than intended. This affects all existing versions of this item. The "Unaffected by Bleeding while affected by Malevolence" modifier found on Watcher's Eye unique jewels now prevents Corrupting Blood from affecting you.
3.6.0	New versions of Watcher's Eye can appear with mods which interact with the new Aura skills.
3.4.0	Fixed a bug where players with the Watcher's Eye mod that blinds enemies when they hit you while you have Grace would blind you if you hit yourself.
3.2.0	The Elder's Unstable phase is now more difficult, and can drop more Elder items if successfully completed. This is now the only way to obtain the Watcher's Eye unique jewel.
3.1.2	Fixed a bug where the "Gain x% of Maximum Mana as Extra Maximum Energy Shield while affected by Clarity" Watcher's Eye mod was granting more Energy Shield than intended.
3.1.0	Introduced to the game.
