Here's some math for you to show you how worthless.

w/ 2 Lv3 Damage Gems
I am rounding down because I'm pretty sure GunZ cant calculate a value like HP/AP damage in decimals.

Donor Sword: 27 +2% = still 27%

[H] Revs x2: 52 +2% = 53 damage

[H] SMG x2: 24 +2% = still 24 damage

Lv95 Pistols: 32 +2%, = still 32 damage
Lv95 [H] Pistol x2: 32 +2% = still 39 damage

Lv95 [L] Shotgun: 108 total +2% = 110 damage
or 9 dmg per pellet +2% = still 9 damage

Lv95 [S] Shotgun: 120 total +2% = 122 damage
or 10 dmg per pellet +2% = still 10 damage

Lv90 [H] Shotgun: 132 total +2% = 134 total damage
or 11 dmg per pellet +2% dmg = still 11 damage

Lv95 [H] Rifle: 21 +2% = still 21
Lv95 [H] Rifle x2: 25 +2% = still 25 damage

Lv95 [H] Heavy MG: 25 +2% = still 25
Lv95 [H] Heavy MG x2: 35 +2% = still 35 damage

Lv95 [L] Rocket: 48 +2% = still 48
Lv95 [H] Rocket: 66 +2% = 67 damage

Lv75 Sniper: 64 +2% = 65 damage
----------

This is useless in every way conceivable, and once again, another prime example of completely wasting bounty for no benefit. If you have amazing luck, it's 400k minimum for 8 Lv1s -> 4 Lv2s -> 2 Lv3s

Granted I don't have 2x Lv4s I only have 1 and I'd rather test it in conjunction. But this is not how you make bounty feel like its "important" this is how you get players to realize they wasted their time playing on your server because the "long term goals" make an imperceivable differences, like with the gun upgrades. In order for you to even get the benefits guns that are only 50+ damage get boosted by 1 and guns that are only 100+ dmg get boosted by 2.

To top it off, the only thing DamageGEMs do is help skew it towards guns that were already OP, instead of giving a needed boost to lesser powered guns to change the meta, hell I'm sure questers would have appreciated if the DMG gems actually helped them but it's good for nothing because they don't meet the minimal damage requirement to get a boost.
Supporting my suggestion to buff the gems is always possible.
