Here’s the path I took to Upgrade the Awakening gear:

  1. Upgrade your legendary gems to at least level 10.
  2. OG players know it’s not as easy as it seems, with each gem starting at rank 1 and reaching rank 10.
  3. The gem’s star rating (1, 2, or 5) and existing rank determine upgrade costs.
  4. Be cautious with your gem investments, as ranking up legendary gems is expensive.
  5. Unlike Legendary Items, you can’t transfer ranks between gems, so choose wisely.
  6. Use Gem Power and duplicate gem versions to upgrade Legendary Gems.
  7. The required ranks depend on the gem’s star rating.
  8. Click the Gem Power option beneath the required gem to see available offerings.
  9. Be cautious with the AutoFill option, especially if your inventory gems match those intended for upgrades.

The picture displays your available gems: 1 Gem Fragment, 1 The Black Rose, and 3 Cutthroat’s Grin. With a total of 6 Gem Power, upgrading is not possible. Next, select the legendary gem you desire the fragment for, let’s say, Cutthroat’s Grin. Click on it, observe the gem power bar reaching its maximum on the right-hand side, and then click okay to complete the process.

Purchase A Dawning Echo

Now that you have your gems upgraded, the next thing you will need to do is to purchase your Dawning Echo quickly. Well, you might have gotten an idea while playing this game that nothing comes without a price. So, how will you get your Dawning Echo? You will need an Eternal orb to get your Dawning Echo. To be precise, with you, 1000 of them.

Obtaining extra Eternal Orbs may be both simple and challenging. It is simple because all you have to do is chuck your wallet at Blizzard. For the same reason, it is challenging because many gamers prefer free-to-play games.

Eternal Orbs in Diablo Immortal are sold in bundles and feature a comparable pricing structure to premium currency in mobile games. You acquire more for a reduced average cost per Eternal Orb as your bundle size increases.

I have listed down the various Eternal Orb bundles along with their USD prices:

60 Eternal Orbs  $0.99
315 Eternal Orbs  $4.99
630 Eternal Orbs  $9.99
1650 Eternal Orbs  $24.99
3450 Eternal Orbs  $49.99
7200 Eternal Orbs  $99.99

Now that you have done this, you are at the home stretch! Just a few more things you need to do.

You will already have unlocked your Jeweler. After playing the Diamond in the rough story arc, a brief refresher for all the players who may have forgotten this storyline. You will need to accompany Vic, a jeweler, to his store as part of the quest. Vic and all other jewelers in Diablo Immortal will be accessible to you once this assignment has been properly completed. With all necessary items in hand, visit the master jeweler in the WestMarch area to awaken your gear in Diablo Immortal.

Awakening a legendary item instantly unlocks Resonance, showcasing the prestige of your hard-earned resonance in a newly awakened legendary weapon. This enhances the functionality of your legendary gear and unlocks additional resonance for future enhancements, including a stylish visual makeover and improved capabilities. Resonated Awakened Legendary items feature unique visual effects like glowing armor or character-accessorizing wings.

What’s more, is that your gear will get the Awakened condition and an extra resonance again when the gem has been socketed. I hope this guide was helpful in answering your question about awakening gear in Diablo immortal.
