Unique Blood Gem

In-Game Description

    A blood gem that fortifies weapons and adds various
    properties.

    Droplet blood gems are special gems that adapt to various
    weapons and shapes.

    Created from a bright-red brooch, this blood gem
    strengthens the effect of rallying. A quintessential hunter
    skill, rallying symbolises the battle-worn hunter who is often
    the only thing standing after a bloodbath.

Overview

  • In order to attach gems to your weapons, you'll need three things. First, you'll need a gem. Second, you'll need a weapon that can equip a gem; this means you'll need to upgrade your weapon to unlock gem slots. Finally, you'll need the Blood Gem Workshop Tool. It can be obtained just before entering Oedon Chapel in Central Yharnam. With those elements in place, you can attach gems to your weapon by approaching the workbench in the Hunter's Dream and selecting "Blood Gem Fortification."
  • Right-hand weapons can have up to three gem slots, and some left-hand weapons have one slot. There are different slot shapes, though; not every gem will fit every slot. The slot types are: Radial, Triangular, Waning, and Circle. Your gem's shape needs to match the slot you want to use it in. If you find a really great gem but the shape doesn't properly match your weapon, don't give up hope. There are actually two alternate versions of every right-hand weapon - the Lost and Uncanny versions. They're identical to normal weapons except that they have different slot configurations. These alternate weapons can be found in Chalice Dungeons. There is also an exceedingly rare fifth type of gem shape - Droplet gems. These are "almighty" gems; they can fit in any type of gem slot!
  • Most Blood Gems are randomly generated when they appear, but there are some preset gems, and even a rare few that you create by using unique items you may acquire. Red Blood Gem is one of the Unique Blood Gems.

Effects

  • It raises your physical attack by 2.7% and boosts rally potential by 1.8%. This makes it similar to a Lethal gem, and not a very strong one at that, but it still highly useful in the first half of the game.

Availability

  • Acquired by: using the Red Jeweled Brooch, which you can find on a woman's corpse in the Tomb of Oedon.

Notes

  • If you want to find more about woman you loot the Red Jeweled Brooch from, proceed to the Corpses wiki page.
