    Correct me if I'm wrong, but wouldn't getting Ruby from Fell Cleave hinder the augments on Amber items in gold chests? That would make Saplings the only mobs to cleave, unless by 'Ambercleave' we're talking Cataclysm with Staff...

    I don't fully understand the concept, but I'd like to!

    Through the confinement of Valefor I found myself in the depths of Hades. It was there that I was thrown into Cerberus' Den. Only through Carbuncle's light could I find my way.

    You'd generally have to find the mob that doesn't drop ruby (idk about kon, but in misereaux it's apkallu and colibri, in la theine it's frogs, wiki has a decent list of what lights drop from what up until heroes zones).

    I've never found fell cleaving konschtat to be effective rather than just killing, mainly because you can't really solo it. But in that case I've never really found WAR farming amber chests w/o cleave very effective either.

    Firstly, yes, you can use Cataclysm instead of Fell Cleave, it's not much worse. Secondly, you can still Fell Cleave and get ruby, it doesn't hinder the chest rate too much. The only difference is that you'll get more red chests, but you'd still get lots of gold chests too, and it doesn't have an effect on the quality of the gold chests at all, only on the number.
