Where to obtain Alexandrite - Please post experiences!

If you average 10 per run, which so far I haven't seen one group get 10. It would take you 5000 salvage; this is not a possible number. Even if the entier server was getting aprox 10 per run............. it would take forever.

Had about 6 or 7 drop in Bhaflau remnants last night. As for the whole 'find the right gears to kill' statement, the vast majority of them came from the gears used to nerf LBC.

Got 8 Alexandrite off a SSR run w/ TH4. Took path of Dekka > N. Gyro > west on 3rd floor and 4th floor. We didn't get enough magic cells so we farmed the western chamber w/ ramparts (undead reinforcements) and gears. Cleared about half that west chamber then ported to 4th floor and killed the gears in first two rooms. We ported to LAC w/ 25min left so it should be possible if you want just Alexandrite to obtain 10+ if that is your sole objective.

We had this awesome idea of trying to dupe Alexandrite at the Sockets.

I wish I could say that it worked. It would solve the whole problem.

SSR, got 3 on the way up to Turtle spawn. Nothing on gear train but went 4/4 on some triples we pulled out of the "chariot" room.

Possible the triples around chariots are higher drop rates, or just the previously useless gears in each zone?

4 from ZR 6F gears.
