Should You Use Ultimate Counter Gems?

Good Second or Third Gem Choice

While Defender classes will benefit the most from Ultimate Counter's effects, Attacker classes, who might often find themselves taking the brunt of an enemy's attack can also benefit from equipping this gem as well. Regardless this Gem should be equipped when there is an extra slot available, as there Gem that augments the more important traits of Attacker and Defender classes.
