flame gem, water gem, ice gem, bs gem

[BeastKingSmash]

the real endgame boss fight in this game is called RNG and getting these ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ gems...I must've hunted that octopus like 5 times and still no flame gem

WTF is going on with these gems ?

wat jus find investigation with it ezpz

[Mechanique]

So join a quest where the gem you need is a guaranteed reward

[Ya_Mama--]

They have a 2-5% chance to drop, or you can search for an investigation that guarantees one as a reward. Not necessarily the equivalent of the real end game boss fight if you ask me.

We literally have rewards now in Wilds for investigations that can include gems. Find one with Nu Udra that gives the gem, join, complete it, profit. Look in SOS flares from other players and/or on your map - if you save the investigation from your map for a Nu Udra that rewards a gem, you can do it 3 times = 3 gems EZPZ.

You are hunting like we used to in World, that's gonna take a while with those drop %.... Use the SOS flare quests.

great tip

Just one addition:

four times if you start a field survey right away + saving it as investigation

So you get it once right away, then can repeat it thrice

Personally I think the drop rates for gems are extremely high, but then I am also used for what feels like an eternity to drop chances of 0,5% and 0,005%, with the worst I remember at 0,0012% (MMORPG)

Rest mechanic,
changes the monsters available.
Its not that expensive, alright I might have several hundred thousand points but still its only like 300 or 500 a pop.
Just push it into the next season, jump out the tent if you see the monster you want but they dont offer the gem well rest withen same season different time of day.

Once the gem is on offer you can save as investigation and snag that 4 times.
Its easy peasy.

5? cute. That's like an hour of your time with waiting inbetween included.

It took me >70 hunts to get an almudron plate once.

And if people ever struggle with points... they could savescum...

or go fishing - throwing out the net at certain spots yields you like 50 points per fish, getting the 300-500 points like almost instantly. Plus Zenny and the fact that every rest resets the fishing spots as well.
