How rare are town portal gems?

I don't get it... drop rate is low, but you get them by trading to vendors, whats the prob? :)

I'm lucky to have 2 now. I traded almost and arm and leg for the one.

It is the only unique gem in the game currently.

Didn't know this existed... but that is awesome! Now to just get one...

I got one in closed beta, then I got one in open beta. I feel like I'm suppose to be using it. I guess over time saved portal scrolls = transmutes. Which means I can roll more pots until I get perfect rolls on the one I want.

It also let me waste a good 30 portal scrolls being extra safe killing vaal.

Found like 7 in one month in closed beta.

In open beta it was my first actual drop

o.o lucky? :D

I've got one the first day I played this game. Didn't know it was rare or anything

My girlfriend found one pretty early on. She has now combined it with the Support Gem "Cast on Death". If she dies she gets an insta portal. :D

Found one while farming Fellshrine in Cruel a while back. My first good drop, even before I found an actual Chaos orb. :D

This was my plan too. I've found 2 cast on death gems (improved quality no less...bleh) and can't think of another use for them (I play solo)

It's pretty rare. I've been playing for over a year and a half and have only seen 2 ever drop. First one was in CB and I just got one the past week. I forgot how useful it is if you have an open socket available and if you use a lot of town port scrolls.
