It should be noted however that for followers, the critical hit damage bonus is capped at +100% (beyond that natural bonus), so if you have a follower accessory with high CHD, a ruby in the weapon socket will result in higher damage.įirst of all, an emerald in a weapon does not increase anybody's critical hit chance, but merely the critical hit damage. If your follower dies a lot though, maybe go for vitality, life on hit, etc (or opt for a legendary follower accessory with "Your follower cannot die.") In my experience, critical strike chance gives you the highest damage increase, pound for pound, even more than critical damage. E.g., rubies will always increase strength (which is useless for say, a wizard), and emeralds will always give critical damage (which is great for everyone, unless you want to focus on something else). Your play style, and that of your follower, depends on the gear you and your follower use, and vice versa. You can test this by letting your follower attack enemies with and without emeralds, and counting the damage of criticals (which I have done, sadly). The wiki entry on followers doesn't go into detail, but followers do benefit from equipment and gems just like your character does. Items equipped on your followers do benefit from socketed gems.
