What happens? Do I get the gold bonus or the purple? All the parts have to be gold to get the maximum bonus?

    They average out to whatever rarity they are, so you can use 2 golds with the rest purples and it'll be a bit higher than using all purples, or so I was told.

    Depends on the set on the fifth piece, most instances yes.

    And yes regardless on 2-4 traits.

    Depends on slot. Difference between jewels of different quality stats is smaller than different armor quality and smaller still than different weapon quality. That's why if you need to choose between upgrading weapons and armor, the former should be priority but having gold jewelry instead of purple will change next to nothing.

    For example the set silks of the sun, what happens if I have the Jewelry in purple and two armor pieces in gold? Fifth bonus in purple says 386 flame damage and gold says 400.

    Which one I have?

    Try and tell us. Always good to have some more data on this especially after patches. Shouldn't be very hard or expensive to get one of those pieces or both in purple.

    Edit: ah sorry...flame damage ^^ let's see if I have enough gold mats to try with necro

    I don't have the calculation but you would get slightly higher than 386 because one gold piece but you wouldn't get the whole 400 until you get all gold pieces.
    Make PC NA raiding great again!

    Down with drama!

    Ahh so value increments depending the number of gold upgraded pieces. I thought it stays or maximum purple value and it only changes when I have all gold.
