Thread: Green Diamond hard to find?

Do you find it difficult to find the Green Diamond Crystalline Gemstone for the Noble's Crest?


I had 20k of it and I must have used it on other items without realizing---/slap myself silly --- and now I'm out and nobody seems to be able to find it.


I'm on Ahazi, but Iwas curious if it is like this on other servers as well or if anyone on Ahazi has any.

Well, the thing about green diamond is that the resource sellers are veryunlikely to stockpile it the way they stockpile, say, class 4 petro, or some of the weaponsmith metals. If they happen to have it, it's pure coincidence and they're probably hoping to sell it to a chef or something. I've yet to see a resource seller who caters to tailors, and I can't blame them considering how little of this stuff we use, and how low we're willing to pay for it, it would be silly for them to harvest it. Your best bet, oddly enough, would probably be to ask (very very nicely) a fellow tailor if they have extra. If you were on Bria, I'd help you out.

hehe thanks!


I did have a resource supplier who supplied me with EVERY request, besides hide, but she has been missing for quite some time now. IRL- in the military.

Starsider seems to get Green Diamond pretty frequently. We had a long drought of Plexite, though.


And then a week or two ago, I noticed Plexite AND Green Diamond were in-shift at the same time. Weird!

On Chilastra, green diamond seems to go through 2-3 month droughts, so last spawn i dropped a couple of heavies on it (Do you know how HARD it is to place heavies on Dath! OMG if Rancors weren't chasing me, the very narrow ore vein was on a freakin cliffside ) and now have about 100k of it stockpiled. Now if plexite would just spawn

Many established tailors will have socked away a large amount. I myself have at LEAST 30k of each type, and will probably never ever use more than 1k (I don't think i've used more than 500 units total on live). If you find a tailor who has a stockpile, he or she might be willing to part with 1k of it. In fact, the reason I have so much stockpiled is to help out new tailors on the server.

ArthurDent makes all good points. You also might try a Droid Engineer. We use a little of it in some of our repair tools.

A couple weeks back I had an order for several crests (for the first time since I'd mastered), so I went all over trying to find some... Apparently, it hadn't spawned on Tempest in a while, or so I was told. Eventually found someone who had 1k laying around, and he no longer needed it, so he hooked me up.

The other day, a harvester I had sitting on a metal concentration dried up, and when I checked to see what else was in that spot, I saw green diamond! So I've got about 20k now, and it's still mining. Yay!

I can understand the item needing to be rare but using two named resources is just plain annoying. Green Diamond is fairly common on Chimaera, least when I was still harvesting it was. Plexite however! I spent 3 months doing galaxy wide bazaar checks every few days looking for the stuff. I even once saw someone selling 6 units! Managed to contact him and he didn't even speak english and we could barely get past "hello" with no translators around.


Anyway since I finallly got my supply myself I've sold a few thousand units to a couple of other tailors in order to help them out.

Well it looks like if Plexite is available, the Green Diamond is not and vice vresa.
