Empower Support

Empower Empower only affects active skill gems, meaning skills granted from items can’t be supported by it.

From PoE 3.15, you can no longer obtain Level 2 and higher versions of the Empower, Enhance and Enlighten Support Gems from league rewards. Level 4 versions can still be obtained from corruption and specific Divination Cards.

Empower Quality

Per 1% Quality: This Gem gains 5% increased Experience. A Gemcutter’s Prism Gemcutter’s Prism (often abbreviated GCP) is a currency item that can be used to improve the quality of a gem. Each Gemcutter’s Prism Gemcutter’s Prism will always raise the quality by 1%. The maximum quality is 20%.

Empower Leveling Fast

(1) Increase the quality of Empower Empower to 20%. It gains a 100% increased Experience.

(2) Use Haku weapon, you can search “Haku” weapons from PoE Trade, such as Haku’s Foul Staff, Haku’s Primordial Staff of the Combatant, etc. It has the “+7% to Quality of Socketed Gems” modifier. Therefore, it has a 35% increased Experience.

As a result, you can have up to +135% Experience.

Exceeding the level cap

1. Corruption

Like most items, gems can be corrupted using a Vaal Orb Vaal Orb. Corruption on gems can potentially lift the level or quality percentage of a gem above the maximum of 20. Corruption can also convert a gem into its Vaal skill equivalent, if one exists.

2. Exceeding the level cap

Each gem has a cap beyond which it can not gain any further experience and can not advance any more levels through experience; for most gems this cap is at 20. There are, however, ways to increase the level of a gem beyond 20.

They can be placed in items with modifiers such as the Paragon’s – +1 to Level of Socketed Gems (Prefix) prefix or certain Corruptions, or certain unique items such as Frostferno Frostferno. They can also be linked with the support gems Empower Empower Support, Awakened Added Fire Damage Added Fire Damage Support, Awakened Added Cold Damage Added Cold Damage Support, Awakened Added Lightning Damage Added Lightning Damage Support, Awakened Added Chaos Damage Added Chaos Damage Support, Awakened Blasphemy Blasphemy Support, and Awakened Generosity Generosity Support, and corrupting a gem can raise its level permanently.

Attribute and level requirements no longer increase when using any of those methods with the exception of corrupting the gem itself.

For example, by combining these three methods, the level of a skill gem can get as high as level 32. One way to do this is to have a Frostferno Frostferno with two corruptions such as +2 to Level of Socketed Fire Gems and +2 toLevel of Socketed Cold Gems. Then, socket a corrupted level 21 Elemental Hit Elemental Hit gem in that Frostferno Frostferno. This is now a level 29 Elemental Hit Elemental Hit. Then, support it with a corrupted level four Empower Empower Support, increasing the Elemental Hit Elemental Hit’s level by 3 to bring it to level 32.
