Scer is over 900 now. I've never leveled SC so i have a couple questions..

No OC till over 1000, correct?

Once my skill is over 1000, do all gems need to be 99%? or 1,2,3? (getting mixed reviews)

Thanks!

All 99% gems on a 99% item = 1% blow up rate. It's a 0% blow up rate on MP assuming your skill is 1001.

The group that runs up against them can't kill them fast enough because smite clerics have sooooooo many tools at their disposal combined with decent ranged damage with 8 of them dudes doing it!

correct

once you are 1001 you can overcharge and yes if you overcharge,
you better use 4x 99% gems or 3x 99% + 1x 100%

for example
if you use 4x 99% you have 1% chance to explode
if you use 3x 99% 1x100% = 0% chance to explode
if you use 4x99% on mp items = 0% chance to explode

but you will see the chances to succeed or fail in your log when combining the gems to the armor

I thought chat still shows 1% chance to blow up on a mp with 4 99% gems. So I still make 1 mp gem. My Spellcrafter is way over 1001 from making etched aquamarine eyes. This will save me so much time if I don't have to make a mp gem on mp armor.
