We already know that each Timeless Jewel has its own effect based on its seed and the location of the jewel socket.
For example, Chitus 8000 placed in socket 20 is coded to transform adjacent nodes A, B and C to + 4 % life, + 20 strength, and 10 % dodge.
Do we already know, what will be the consequence of passive tree changes? If any new adjacent node D gets introduced, how should the jewel "know" what to transform this node into?
External link →What happens to a specific passive skill depends both on the jewel seed value and which passive it is. If a new passive is introduced in radius of a jewel socket, then the jewel will change that in a new way. If a passive is removed from the tree or the jewel radius, the jewel will obviously no longer change that passive. Neither of those changes can affect what happens to any other passives.
If a passive is reworked into something new, but internally is still the same one, it will still be modified the same way.
