Talk:Ruby Djinn Essence

Does anyone know what the salvage rate is for rubies on the essence? Also, does it help any to have a higher wisdom or treasure title track? -- Lojiin. (Sorry if this is a mess I'm relatively new to the wiki)
 * Your question is perfectly clear, no mess at all. :) The exact value for salvage rate is not known. I'm keeping track of my expert salvage results for Ruby and Sapphire Djinn Essence, and my personal estimate is that the chance for a gem is around 1/20 (5%). Please note that you must use an Expert Salvage Kit if you want to salvage a gem.
 * High Wisdom and Treasure Hunter rank does not increase this chance. The only thing that increases the chance is a "Measure for Measure" (f.k.a. "Highly salvagable") inscription, but that cannot be applied to collectable drops. --[[Image:TurningL sml.gif|Tetris L]] 11:43, 4 January 2007 (CST)
 * Must use Expert Salvage Kit - can't use Superior? This distinction is not made in the Salvage articles.&mdash;  Ali ( talk )  16:06, 16 April 2007 (CDT)
 * That's not what he means. He's saying that you must use an expert kit instead of a regular salvage kit.  A Superior kit will work just as well, of course. Ninjatek 07:35, 22 May 2007 (CDT)

do Djinn Essences still salvage into jewels?
I've been expert salvaging 100 or more djinn essences, jeweled daggers (with highly salvagable inscription where possible) and roaring ether hearts over the last few weeks, but all i got was dust. Have the salvage rates been nerfed silently or am i just having bad luck? --Roland of Gilead (talk) 16:32, 20 February 2007 (CST)
 * Yes, I got two jewels today salvaging about 10 djinn essences and a geode. Dracil 22:37, 12 March 2007 (CDT)
