Introduce new gem quality above Great
With the Stone of Bryvx no longer being the quality above the Greats, then there needs to be a need quality: Bryvx's gems.
Consider using the model from the Round 42 unit. Look into having a floating orb around them that is colored to match whatever gem type they represent. Also, ensure that their projectile matches that gem type's damage.
As for balance, they will not do double the damage of a Great. That would cause balance problems, regardless of how rare they are. Rather, they would do excellent damage, but also be very useful, perhaps in ways other structures in the game do not provide.
Here I recon that you are saying that The Stone of Bryvnx is no longer available if you somehow manage to get at least three of the same Perfect Gems but I'm saying that the ability to increase the Gem Quality further than 230 Gold currently just to try to get a Stone of Bryvnx that is once the roll is at least three of the same perfect Quality. Let's say the new upgrade after 230 Gold is 300 Gold to increase Perfect Gem Quality roll and the next increase is 350 Gold perhaps, what would be the final quality increase or can it go up to Gem-quality 100%, then what would be the final cost of this upgrade that is instant! Here now or as you desire:

Some of the issues do cross over. I'm still not completely sure the Stone of Bryvx will shift to a new recipe. It may. It may not. But there definitely will be a new recipe or two down the line for future use, as the math has already been done. Support just hasn't been added.
