Where do you get Splendent Ruby in Aion 2?
Splendent Ruby is a rare result from gathering ruby veins on rocky cliff faces. Elyos get the best odds south of the Garden of the Illusion God observatory in Verteron; Asmodians on the western and southern cliffs of Calderon Canyon in Altgard. Each vein can be gathered three times before it despawns for a while.
- Needed for the Essence Extraction upgrade quest (Novice 50)
- Veins sit on cliff faces
- 3 gathers per vein, shared between players
