Diablo 4 continues the tradition of offering a plethora of gear that boosts the stats of your character, which can serve as a lifesaver in hectic scenarios. With the help of gem slots, you can further enhance your gear. Once the gear has additional slots, you can attach whatever gems that you desire into it.

To add gear slots, you will require Scattered Prisms and Gold. Scattered Prisms can be obtained by defeating the game's world bosses such as Ashava. It must be noted that some Diablo 4 players have managed to obtain these useful trinkets without engaging in challenging boss fights. Once you've got enough, you can head to the jeweler Kratia to add slots onto your desired gear.

As expected from an action RPG, Diablo 4 features tons of interesting items, with the loot system being the main draw for players to grind hard and obtain rare gear. If you come across an item with solid stats and no gem sockets, you can use Scattered Prism to add these to that gear.

You'll have to defeat the world boss called Ashava, the Pestilent to obtain Scattered Prisms. This boss has specific spawn timings throughout the duration of the upcoming open beta.
