Sapphire
Material · MaterialJewelry1★A gem with a blue glow to it. Merchants pay well for one.
Details
It stacks up to 9,999. At 30,000 gold it is worth real money to a merchant.
Where to Find Sapphire
5 Pals drop Sapphire when defeated or captured, which is usually the faster route if you are already out hunting — the drop list below is sorted by how reliably each one gives it up.
If you would rather just buy it, the cheapest seller is Desert Shop at 30,000 Gold, and 3 other shops stock it too.
It also shows up as world loot — chests in the Forest, enemy camp boss stashes in the Grasslands and enemy camp boss stashes in the Forest, and 2 more pools besides, usually 1–2 at a time. Higher-grade chests carry the better rolls, so the ones guarded by a camp are usually worth the detour.

Using Sapphire Well
No recipe, structure or technology in the game consumes Sapphire — it is pure sale stock. A merchant pays 3,000 Gold for one, a tenth of the 30,000 the same merchant charges to sell you one, so there is no reason to bank a stack for later crafting.
Menasting Terra and Selyne are the only guaranteed sources, and Selyne yields 2–3 per kill rather than one. Selyne is nocturnal, so plan that hunt after dark. The Cryst-type droppers sit between 1% and 5%, far too thin to farm deliberately — treat those Sapphires as a bonus from fights you were having anyway.
