Interesting gem mining

Featured Replies

I'm lvl 58 miner with no ammy of glory (i think thats the one that increases chances of getting a gem.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

anyways I was recently mining in port khazard mines and mined 2 saphs out of the same iron ore before getting an ore.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I know the odds of getting one gem isn't that great so I was just wondering what the odds would be that i would pull 2 gems in a row. Anyone know the numbers?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I would guess that I've probably pulled 1 gem every (roughly) somewhere between 500-1000 ores, so i guess that would make the odds of pulling 2 in a row something like 1 in 250000-1000000? Interesting...

Lol thats awkward, never happened to me before...Its probobly VERY rare.

Live life and die having it been forfilled.

happaned to me once whilst powermining from 60-85, got two sapphs in a row from the same rock

That was lucky. But they have listed on tip.it the gem rock does anyone know where that can be found???

newscape300x50qz7.giffull qp - always willing to chat add me...

odds of getting 2 gems in a row is odds of geting 1 gem squared

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

which is his guess...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

i find it likely that anywhere between 4 and 50 people mine 2 gems in a row a day...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

i'd also think that only once a week does that pair not include a saphire, if there are instances where it doesn't at all

I had a diamond and a ruby before I mined a rune ore a couple weeks ago.

well i cant say often, but that happens alot with rune ores...

I skill. If you skill you should join.

*shrug* I don't think it's TOO rare, because I know of lots of people who it has happened to. It happened to me twice. First time I got an emerald and ruby out of the same rock, and second time I got 2 diamons out of the same rock.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Ah well. Either way, I'm sure it's not really too rare.

I've had it happen 2 times for me. It's not extremely rare.

No longer playing Runescape, I caught the WoW bug.

Does anyone have a link to any 'safe' site that has these drop rate odds posted?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I am doing some studies on drop rates and i would not want to bother myself with work that has already been done. Hopeful the information could help me.

I got 3 gems in a row once without getting an ore, never happened to me again.

I've had that before, a couple of times actually.
