While the Legendary Gems are still undergoing development on the PTR, their stats and bonuses are changing constantly. A major revision was created on July 15, 2014 with new or upgraded stats for almost every gem.
<ref>[http://diablo.incgamers.com/blog/comments/legendary-gems-ptr-placeholders Legendary Gem Updates] - John Yang, 15/07/2014</ref> More changes came August 5th with a patch that changed the Enforcer gem, and completely reworked the upgrading system, changing legendary gems from 50 to 200 ranks. <ref>[http://diablo.incgamers.com/blog/comments/diablo-3-ptr-2-1-0-patch-notes-5-august/comment-page-1?cpage=1#comment-8649488 Legendary Gem changes] - August 5th PTR Patch 5/08/2014</ref>Another patch later in August reduced the total ranks, removed multi-level upgrades, gave 3 chances to upgrade, and changed the secondary property to unlock at rank 25.

Bliz Note: This buff duration on this gem was chosen so that it’s easier to keep up with cheap spenders and not trivial with expensive spenders.

* Upgrade rank grants: +10% weapon damage per second.

* Rank 50 25 unlocks: 30% chance on hit to Stun the enemy for 1 second.
Bliz Note: The max of 50 yards was added not because it was too powerful (even though it was too powerful), but so that you wouldn't be incentivized to stay offscreen while your pets killed everything. At 50 yards, I expect you to be in range to actually still use your skills (crazy right?).
** Note: Because of this change the power of each upgrade has been reduced, but the overall rate at which gem power is gained through upgrades should remain roughly the same</blue>
Figures below are for the prior first system, with level when rank 50 as was the maximum value. New stats will be added as they are confirmed in-game. Consider This system has changed twice since the entire system as work in progress initial version, and expect may change more changes before the patch until Patch 2.1 goes live.
===Old Upgrade Odds===
* Rift Level 01 - Upgrade chance 21%
