Have you ever gotten a gem drop from a normal enemy?

Ruby, sapphire, or diamond. No item that salvages into a gem, just a plain old gem.

I remember a sapphire dropped for me from an Am Fah assassin about 2 weeks before Nightfall came out. Little did I know how much they'd shoot up in price and how I should have bought and stockpiled them...

I still get them occasionally from UW mobs.

Yeah, I think they're more common from UW and FoW mobs. I should have excluded them and specified just regular, ordinary enemies. In my 2+ years of GW, that sapphire is the only gem drop I've ever gotten.

Yeah, I got one from the Scar Eater, and then the UW back in June.

have gotten them rarely off of ruby djinns.

Only from FoW and UW. Once from a boss in HM.

Yep! Guildie got one from a cracked mesa, when we vanquished Dejarin Estate.

I happened to get one from the mobs in the MOX (I think it's MOX?) quest in Cantha.

its-VERY- rare to get them,but they drop from most every thing related to elements/margonites/any thing in uw/fow/doa/hard mode bosses

Elementals in aAscalon area drop them too

My guildie got a saph from a jade brotherhood o:

I just get rubies from things in fow

some drop from the Kirins in Pogmei Valley but its very slim

only in HM for me

the stone elementals outside of serenity temple in HM.

Just in FoW and UW. I've had several Sapphires drop from Smites back in the day, maybe even a Ruby. Can't remember. NM for the record.

They do drop more in uw and fow like some people have said, and some specific mobs also drop them, such as the rubies from the stone elementals in ascalon, but they can drop from pretty much anything. I think I even saw a screenshot in one of the thread's like this of one dropping in nm from a mantid in noob island in cantha.

yeah i've gotten a ruby from a fire imp in hm once

I got a few drops of them, one I remember being from an afflicted, which I thought strange. I think that was a saph.

They have a very small chance of dropping form anything that drops a material. I have gotten 1 in UW, 2 in FoW, 1 From a Old Ascalon Stone Ele and 1 from a Roaring Ether.

Ruby from Hulking Stone Elemental in Old Ascalon, that's the only time.

Afflicted in Tahnakai Temple mish dropped a Ruby once in NM.

Desert Wurm in the Desolation dropped a Sapphire in NM.

the Spectres in UW dropped a few Sapphires in HM.

Sure there's more but can't recall.

Not a gem, but this surprised me. A Jadite Shard from the Jade Brotherhood. They take their name literally it seems.
