I know it's not unheard of, to get sapphires and rubies in random places, it's just that it's never happened to me before, so i just felt the need to make this post. bear with me

I got a ruby as my very first drop in the Cantha starting area when I created an Assassin. I take that as a good sign. 0_o

PvP builds
Farming builds.

Regular pve trashy nub levels can be beat with any skill bar and dont really need to be blacked out.

Now since people believe that they will get a use in Ch3 they are gaining price a bit.

But no one knows what they will be used for.

Maybe instead of using them for armor crafting they will be used as a "cosmetic" change. I know some players want to be able to change their characters face, hair, skin tone, etc. This could be a big gold sink. They could introduce a "cosmetic merchant" who take rubies and sapphires to make the changes.

How many times have the idea's of hair/face changes been brought up and how many topics started on said concept? Lets not turn this topic into yet another.

sorry. but how many topics are there about them being used for armor? tons.
Didn't mean hijack the thread or anything Besides, there were several replies here that were only talking about blacked out skill bars, others talking about using them for armor, that's why I gave my opinion. My bad I guess

I do not understand why people who play Guild Wars think they are pro gamers...America never has favor for a reason... Also if one of you play sc/zh/war3 tft i'd like to 1;1 you so you can feel my uber pro l337 320 apm ggnore noobs

also a saphire is worth nothing...so who cares?

--sadego Where did we ever state that we are "pro gamers"? BTW I'm not in America so I really don't understand what you're getting at. And where did all this hostility come from? We were discussing the probability of Sapphires and Rubies having a good use in the upcoming chapters... Calm down man.

PS: A Sapphire is worth 250g at the Rare Material Trader, in case you know what that is.

Nice find.

One of my friends got a Sapphire drop from Rock Fist in the Nolani Academy mission several months ago. And I've kept one from before Chapter Two's release in the hope they'd increase in value. I should have sold it when it was worth 5K.

This is the sapphire I freaked out the most about getting. I had two drop during trapper UW runs but I wasn't expecting one to drop here.

I do hope Anet change either the look of sapphire or the look of ice that can be found in SF. Once I got scam for that and I was the victim.
