Where to get Ruby
5 Pals drop Ruby, and they are not equal — Tetroise gives 1–2 at 100%, which is the best return per kill in the game. Every rate below is the game's own figure.
Pals that drop Ruby
| Pal | Rate | Amount | Avg per kill | Where |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 100% | 1–2 | 1.5 | ||
| 100% | 1–2 | 1.5 | ||
| 5% | 1 | 0.05 | ||
| 3% | 1 | 0.03 | ||
| 1% | 1–2 | 0.01 |
Rate and amount are stated by the game. “Avg per kill” is ours — the rate multiplied by the mean of the amount range — so you can compare a rare big drop against a reliable small one without doing it in your head.
Buying it
6 merchant stocks sell Ruby outright, from 20,000 gold. If you are short on time rather than gold, this beats farming — merchant locations are listed separately.
Chests, expeditions and gathering nodes
The game stores these as weights rather than percentages — an item’s chance is its weight against everything else in the same grade. The odds below are that division done, so you can compare a route against hunting.
| Source | Type | Chance | Amount |
|---|---|---|---|
| Grass01 Fishing | 27.7% | 1 | |
| Grass01 FishPond | 9.8% | 1–2 | |
| Grass02 | 0.9% | 1 | |
| Salvage Rank1 | 0.5% | 1–3 |
