Nekki makes them think that way. They try their best to make the gem weapons as tempting as possible with cool animations, they even provide "limited offers" and enchant them with convenient enchantments. Not only that, but they also intentionally make challengers appear right after you hit a new level, so that you have no choice but:

1. Lose to the challlenger.

2. Have extreme skill and beat them, which not many people can do.

3. Purchase gems and buy equipment to bring the difficulty down from impossible.

Even if you decide to go hardcore and try beating the challlenger in impossible difficulty (which is likely not possible on the first try), you will have to drain your gem savings to rematch! And they increase in price every time. Like Nekki, give us a break! I don't want to shove 10 ads down my throat to be able to rematch an enemy that can kill me in one hit with their silly weapon!

Torturer's Rage, unlike most gem weapons, is actually OP. And it's worth the gems needed ;) Agreed. It is the hardest magic to dodge in the game. Not that you can't perform a simple jump, but when you're on the ground you have no chance not to get hit by it. This, kids, is why you get damage absorb on your armor.

And Titan's Lifesteal damaging himself is not bug, it's just his Lifesteal reduces his health instead because your Enlightenment reverse the effect. Yeah, I saw that happen to me and others a few times and it's honestly funny.
