Flame Gem

Flame Gem

A clean elemental damage boost for whichever weapon you are holding, with a small ember bonus if broken. Element-agnostic and always useful — one of the safest common picks when nothing else synergizes with your build.

Quick answer

PICK IT WHEN

Take it when survival or consistency is the reason the run ends. The fire, reliable, safe signals describe the kind of problem it is meant to solve.

WATCH OUT

Do not spend a damage slot on it when the run is already safe and a core engine pick is available.
