before there was a use for them (before nightfall) I think I got like 2 of each mostly from the hulking stone guys....my tyrian monk was the first to get one doing the quest with devona from serenity temple---I was so astonished I almost didnt pick it up..and yelled to my guildee 'I got a Sapphire from the stone guy!!!'

its been quite some time since I saw one drop for me, though I have gotten them from time to time (and I dont do uw or fow or hm so it would be normal questing type stuff)...but they do on a rare occasion drop

During the quest to get to the Rilohn Refuge mission in Nightfall, one of the Droughtling's in the Floodplains dropped a Ruby for me.

I also got a Sapphire from a level 11 Fire Imp right outside of Lion's Arch in North Kryta Province.

I get them from djinns fairly regularly in normal mode in a certain area I like to play in.

Yawgmoth · Oct 19, 2008, 08:17 AM // 08:17

I had one drop for me from a Fire Imp just outside LA back in early 2005. Other than that I've had numerous ones drop in FoW and UW.

Looking at the mobs that drop gems I see 1 thing in common - they can also drop Glittering Dust or Granite Slabs or trophies that salvage into them. Any exceptions to this rule?

Millions of mobs killed, and I've got many many stacks of raw materials, rare weapons, about 100 greens, over 20 black dye, at least six superior vigor... but I have never had a single gemstone drop from a mob, ever. Every gem I've got have been from dungeon chests.

IMHO gems do not drop from mobs outside elite areas.

take_me · Oct 19, 2008, 09:15 AM // 09:15

Had a few drop from Wardens in Pongmei Valley and 1-2 in FoW.

Sapphires from Am Fah a total of three times. That's about it.

SirSausage · Oct 19, 2008, 10:58 AM // 10:58

The only mobs that dropped sapphires/rubys for me were the Hulking Stone Elementals and they dropped them more than once.

Abedeus · Oct 19, 2008, 11:26 AM // 11:26

Yup. Sapphires from UW/FoW, Rubies too, Diamonds in EotN djinns (but only once) and a LOT of sapphires from Hulking Elementals.

Roman · Oct 19, 2008, 11:49 AM // 11:49
