Every gem, by affix

The top gems that grant each affix you selected, ranked by cheapest — swap in an alternative if the recommended pick is out of stock.

Distant Ward

If the distance between you and the attacker is greater than X meters when hit, temporarily increases your Physical Resistance and Magic Resistance. Upon reaching a certain level, you also resist minor impacts from distances greater than X meters; once triggered, this effect has a cooldown of Xs.

Combat value (CV) is the gem's power rating; prices are the auction house's recommended value and float with supply. The recommended set is a greedy cover — it favours gems that grant two of your targets at once, so it's the fewest sockets, not always the strictly cheapest total.
