Has anyone else recently had issues with finding a lava ruby? I know it's random drop in the areas with lava, but I've been using A LOT of my energy the last couple of days in these areas alone, and haven't gotten one. Has never taken this long in previous weeks...not that big of a deal since I'm currently at max level, but after using a lot today as well, I started wondering if it was just me being impatient or whether there was a glitch. Thanks!!!

Yes, have tried all of the zones with lava....since this quest started, I've gotten it fairly quickly every week, but this week just can't seem to find one!

I usually do this one when I'm doing other quests, and I have "questor's favorite" spell activated. That seems to speed it up, a LOT.

I have used up two full days worth of energy and I haven't gotten the lava ruby. I haven't had a problem before. I get that it's a random drop, but it's kind of frustrating. :(

Oooo - hopefully this is a one-time only frustration for you. I know that, like Rebecca, most times I'll just breeze thru a quest, but then, all of a sudden, it will take forever to get that question accomplished.

I'm sorry it's taking so long, Elise - got my fingers crossed for you that that danged ruby pops up!

Just to let you know, the zone that I seem to have the fastest luck with it is the Lava River.

Took another 2000+ energy with the Questor's Favor spell activated to get it. I understand it's random .. but you would think after a certain amount of energy had been spent, it might up your odds a bit :/

There is only one place to look, The Heart Of the Jungle. That's the square that has the glowing heart and 3 or 4 bushes. Don't bother looking anywhere else. I always get the water in just a few quick whacks.

EVery quest tells you where to go.
That quest in particular is very explicit on where to go.
And the Maps 'show active quest' really helps on that quest too.
