where to farm flawless diamonds
 

Hi, 58 Paladin here, won a BP in Kael but i have no funds for gems. spent several days in Velks and getting no where.

Anyone have some advice on where to find Flawless Diamonds, or I guess where a Paladin with shit gear can farm 15000 plat........

Thanks!

- Get in a CE group in Seb
- Hope for the best

This is magelo's data of where they drop on live. Might be different here.

What were you killing in Velks? I've seen a couple of chest gems drop from stuff in velks close to where velks himself spawns. Also on the dragon in CS. All priest gems though.

Chest gems seem pretty rare and only to drop off the highest mobs. I hear SG is a good place for them in p99. I've not done SG myself though.

I don't think velious gems drop in seb.

Reread the whole Op, not just the title:

ya just frenzy and eyes, not that far in. thanks for the tip

yeah seb is gonna be your best bet as you'll get exp and plat at the same time

lord knows people have done seb for years without velious bp, so don't sweat it young paladong

Broodmother area camp in velks drops BP gems. You generally need a full or nearly full group to hunt there effectively.

Crystal eyes and fang drop them (not regularly but when they do spawn its more common for them to drop on nameds). ive never seen frenzy brood or stalker drop one. They do drop off crystal guardians deeper in by the imps rijoely and tijoely. Im unsure if they drop off anything else in velks besides nameds kobolds and bm's. Maybe velium hunters?

And SG is absolutely the best place to farm them, they drop like candy there honestly (black marbles too, crushed flame emeralds, all the good stuff). I see them a lot in SG when doing fellspine. Generally you dont wanna go there with a lot of people unless youre raiding. If you do raid there just go to temple or fellspine area under temple and keep pulling everything. Mind you you'll need cold resist and magic resist in SG. Min group you need since youre a paladin and not well geared is prolly 4 people (cleric/shaman/dps). You or the dps will need a tash stick.

Your main options for getting diamonds as drops are deep Velks (broodmother mainly), DN rats, or SG.
