Watcher's Eye

Watcher's Eye is a unique Prismatic JewelPrismatic JewelPlace into an allocated Jewel Socket on the Passive Skill Tree. Right click to remove from the Socket., that provides between 4-6% increased life, mana and energy shield, along with 2 or 3 offensive and/or defensive mods that operate only if specific auras are active. They are one of the few items in the game that are universally used in all builds, due to the highly variable and random modifiers that they can drop with. Their modifiers are unique, highly powerful, cannot be crafted on other Prismatic Jewels, and are unobtainable on Cluster Jewels as well.

Depending on the roll, a Watcher's Eye can be of the most valuable items in the game. A 3-mod Watcher's Eye can be valued anywhere from a few Divine OrbsDivine OrbStack Size: 20Randomises the values of the random modifiers on an itemRight click this item then left click a magic, rare or unique item to apply it. (or pay in Exalted OrbExalted OrbStack Size: 20Augments a rare item with a new random modifierRight click this item then left click a rare item to apply it. Rare items can have up to six random modifiers.) to hundreds of Divine Orbs if it has 3 mods that work extremely well together. Such items are highly valuable because they are unique, cannot be duplicated or replicated, and cannot be crafted by players.

A 2-mod Watcher's Eye can drop from The Elder encounter, if The Shaper is kept alive during the captured phase. A 3-mod Watcher's Eye only drops from the Uber Elder encounter. The drop rate of a Watcher's Eye can be increased by unlocking the atlas passive skill .

Implicit modifiers could also be added to this jewel by using Harvest crafting to make the jewel even more powerful. And harvest crafting does not corrupt the item. However, this feature is removed in version 3.19.0

Version history

Version	Changes
3.16.0	The Watcher’s Eye modifier which previously granted chance to Dodge Attack Hits while affected by Grace now provides 12-15% chance to Suppress Spell Damage while affected by Grace. Existing items can be updated with a Divine Orb. All existing Watcher's Eye with the mod (5-8)% chance to Dodge Spell Hits while affected by Haste has been automatically converted into +(5-8)% chance to Suppress Spell Damage while affected by Haste
3.14.0	The Corrupted Blood debuff has been updated. It now has a maximum stack size of 10 and is now consistently treated as being completely separate from Bleeding. Various Bleeding-specific modifiers that may have previously applied to Corrupted Blood will no longer apply.
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.
