Enlighten Gem

Need some help here.

Does this gem work better with

3 different 2 sockets
Vitality - Enlighten gem
Haste - Enlighten gem
Determination - Enlighten gem

Or is it the same as

All in 1 4 socket
Vit-Deter-Haste-Enlighten

The second option works fine. You can have one support gem supporting multiple active skills.
but do you get more % off reserve?
Say I have a level 3 gem 92% does it give 92% of all socketed when all 3 are linked together? Each gem get 8% less or is better to have 3 sets of enlighten?

enlighten will always work the same way.

each active gem linked to enlighten will have its cost reduced by 8%. it doesnt matter if you do

Vitality - Enlighten gem
Haste - Enlighten gem
Determination - Enlighten gem

Or

Vit-Deter-Haste-Enlighten


the end result is always the same. the 2nd option means you only need 4 gem sockets and 1 enlighten gem.
Also, math.

Assume 3 buffs with 25% reservation.

25+25+25 = 75. 75x0.92 = 69

25x0.92 = 23
25x0.92 = 23
25x0.92 = 23

23+23+23 = 69

Doesn't matter how you break it down, the end result is always the same.

More importantly, it's always 69.

that first equation is actually not correct. there are plenty of cases where ROUNDING changes the outcome. the game calculates it the 2nd way.

Keep in mind Enlighten provides a mana multiplier to auras and is multiplicative with any reduced mana reserved you may have.

As others have said, the gem is a support gem and functions the same as any other support gem. Every active skill gem linked to it that can be supported is supported.
