What kind of gems did you loot from FH?

What map exactly, and if possible what boss? Or was it a mob?

Do you need to be lowbie to get the gems to drop? Been through many runs but haven't seen any yet.

This.

I got cloth on one run with my lvl 50, and that's the only crafting drop I got in about 40 runs. Haven't had a chance to try my lvl 10 yet, hoping to find out before I'm forced to test it, heh.

iCant, do you mean Meathead's Deli? There only one boss, Skeller, in level 12 The Bone King.

I have been playing in FH for days now, learning crafting and hoping for a gem to drop, but zero, zip, zilch, nada! I have tried using a level 1, a level 5, a level 10, and a level 50. Absolutely nothing.

I don't understand this at all. Where are the gems dropping?

I just looted a gem in Meathead's Deli using my level 50 mage. You can do three runs of Deli in about 5 minutes, for 9 chances*. Out of twelve runs I got one gem plus two other greens and 3 scraps plus about a dozen other oranges.

* = actually, I got a green drop off a zombie, so 9 chances is a conservative estimate

just had a play in the deli. 8 attempts with lvl47 bear gained 2 power gems in first two attempts and a scattering of scraps. Also gained one gem (forgotten which but not power) during 6 attempts with lvl50 mage and fewer scraps.

def works.... thanks

Yeah. Meatheads Deli....I'm farming the heck out of it....got three orange level 5 recipes to drop as well. Hammancut said Skeller dropped a pink lvl 15 recipe in there too. So far I've gotten Power Gem, Magic gem, Focus gem and Hawk eye gem in there from one of the three. Gems mostly from Brom Dandy and Meathead.....

I got one recipe after an hour or so. I have no luck :(

Drops don't appear to be frequent and are level-independent. I think that the only option at this point is to farm like crazy.

Been farming for gems with my lvl 43 &30 and nothing yet :( ran thru all FH like 10 times

Just do Meathead's Deli: 3 bosses, and proven drops. I've got scraps a few times, and a gladiator gem the last time I farmed.

Man, I must just be really unlucky. Been through 50+ runs and have only seen a few scraps. I've been using my bird at lvls 50,51, and 52. No joy.

Dizzy are you using your low lvl chars or your 51?

Redbridge
02-13-2011, 11:41 PM
Just done another 50 runs of the Deli, 6 gems, 19 scraps lots of rubbish gear but still no recipes. Do you think it would be better to farm solo or with a group?

With forest haven bosses so weak, I don't think it really matters. You're limited by how fast you can walk here.

I wonder if FH 4 or 6 would have more chance of a recipe drop? I've done a ton of Deli runs too and finally got a few gems at least. I may change to focus on FH4 for a while.

Sorry, just saw this.

I used my lvl 51 mage.

In the last two days, about 5 more scraps, and 2 more gems. I'd say that was about 30-40 runs of Meathead's Deli, but I didn't keep strict track. Def. getting decent crafting drops with my high level main, tho.

I intend to craft Recipe: L15 ALCHEMIST ROBES. Where can I get Presto's Gem item?

Read the whole thread above. It pretty much discusses 'where do gems drop' alternatively you can buy them for between 20000-50000 gold in the balefort castle town shop/auction. Very very expensive for crafting lower level items though.

Good luck

Very expensive because they seem to be extremely rare (due to low drop rate). Might just give up on crafting... for a while, and finish up my other quests. :)

i was dropped the prestos gem in meatheads deli. are these gems that drop in forest haven for lvl 55 recipes as well? it doesnt appear with a check mark when i try to forge something... maybe i need to do more research

Dizzy

Lvl 55 recipes don't use gems. They use gemstone settings which are crafted from 5 superior blade steels (these are daily quest rewards I believe).
