Do these rubies really drop everywhere as guildwiki states? I found this one today..
Where have you found rubies/sapphires?

Excuse the build; this is my friend's char that I was playing on, but I did get Survivor on her today.

Been playing for over a year, have a few lvl 20 characters and never once picked up a gem or seen anyone else pick one up, guess I'm mr unlucky

Charqus · Jul 24, 2006, 09:04 AM // 09:04

You CAN get them anywhere but I find them most common in FoW forest.

Tyggen · Jul 24, 2006, 10:04 AM // 10:04

I've only found them on Shing Jea, where I've found three.

Gargoyle dropped a Ruby just outside Ascalon City for me once...

Shame they're not worth anything.

I had Ruby drop in the UW recently (along with 2 ectos at the same time

)

Aerian_Skybane · Jul 24, 2006, 01:09 PM // 13:09

Only place ive ever pickup up Rubies and Saphires is in the ToPK UW

Mournblade · Jul 24, 2006, 02:57 PM // 14:57

When I created my assassin, the very first drop I got in the training area was a ruby.

Vahn Roi · Jul 24, 2006, 03:40 PM // 15:40

Do you actually do the pre-training for fun?

Well it was my first Canthan character, so I sat through it to see what it was like. :P

i think i confused the defensive stance with frenzy

i had a sapphire drop for me somewhere in the echovald, i then went to the rare material trader because i remembered that they were "valuable" and thought i would get a nice profit, the npc seller said 750gp, but he just gave me 250gp for it.

Numa Pompilius · Jul 24, 2006, 08:12 PM // 20:12

Considering the immense number of mobs I've killed all over Tyria since release, sufficient to get me a dozen black dye and superior vigor, and considering I've never had a single gem drop for me there, I'd say rubys and sapphires DON'T drop on the Tyrians surface, only in UW and FoW.

I have, however, got 6-7 rubies and sapphires during a few sporadic visits to FoW.

They may drop everywhere in Cantha, though I've never found any. I do know that jadeite and amber can drop anywhere in Cantha.

Shadowfox1125 · Jul 24, 2006, 10:16 PM // 22:16

I've only seen jade drop from a Jade Brotherhood and now a ruby from a mantid.. but I've never seen a ruby/sapphire drop outside of FoW..

Jetdoc · Jul 24, 2006, 11:49 PM // 23:49

I have never had a Ruby or Sapphire drop for me...
