Legendary Crests also include a small-roughly 5%-chance to drop a 5-Star Legendary Gem. These crests are a premium item that can be purchased for real money and guarantee a Legendary Gem of some sort will drop when used in conjunction with the game's Elder Rifts. The issue is that obtaining these highly coveted and extremely powerful gems is only possible through Legendary Crests. Gems are upgraded by salvaging unwanted Legendary Gems, and higher level gems not only require the leftover scraps of unwanted gems but also require dozens of gems of the same type in order to be upgraded. You also want to upgrade them as many times as possible to further increase their power. As a player, you want as many of these powerful gems, and as much Resonance, as possible. These 5-Star Legendary Gems are miles above 1- or 2-Star Legendary Gems, granting more powerful effects, but also higher stats in the form of more Resonance, a stat which boosts the life and damage value of items.

You see, not all Legendary Gems are created equal–some are incredibly rare and powerful.
