91lvl, never seen perfect one. Never seen 20lvl gem also. Yet, my friend who progress parallel to me at same 15-16 maps got 2 both of them. Just rng.
My guess is 20's drop from the uber pinnacle if you get the chance for a valuable gem point on the boss tree

I'm going to repeat what I said in another thread since it applies here too:
Many, MANY items should act as shards, and many more should have shards.
You should be able to turn 10 uncut gems of X level into an uncut gem X+1 level.
You should be able to turn 20 Transmut orb into a Regal Orb
You should be able to turn 30 Augment orb into an Exalted orb.
You should be able to turn 15 Essences into a Greater Essence.
Gemcutter's Prism, Jeweller's orbs, Glassblower's orb should had shards that drop, and you should be able to turn 10 lower level into a higher level.
You should be able to craft Chaos, Divine, Alchemy, Annulment and Vall orbs with specific recipes that mix other orbs and currencies.
Ever heard of that small game called Minecraft? Have something like that, you have 4x4 inventory and have to create a specific patern with the items or something, you'll figure a solution crafting is the easiest system to design, ever.
Oh and while we are at it, you should be able to level up runes a couple of time by merging 10 of a lower level. I don't know about you, but the way you could slowly grow your gem in D2 always felt incredibly rewarding to me.
Just give us the ability to either destroy a slotted gem to make space for a new one, or destroy the item to get your gem back.

i thought so, but my friend told me he dropped it from white or blue mob while just rampaging through a map

Totally agree.

Please, no splinters other than mirror shards. I want them to remove regal/artificer and make them drop all breach splinters in a stack. Path of Picking up splinters is just stupid AF

I vaguely remember an preview of poe2 years ago that was talking about how 6-link would much easier to get. Guess they don't really want to change or make poe2 significantly different than poe1.
Never, ever take anything GGG says about "easy to get" at face value. It is always a lie, every single time.
Their idea of "easy to get" is "100 players in the world may have these, so we need to nerf the droprate."

If picking them up is your biggest problem, maybe the solution is to allow them to be autopicked up like gold rather than removing them and gimping the game as a whole.
Shards are the best way to avoid having to deal with the extrem RNG that very low drop read create.

greater jewelers aint rare to be honest, so you can just corrupt up to 6link pretty deterministically. Also small jewellers drop like candy - you gain access to a 5link way earlier - which was enough for me to kill breach boss on 8points on tree.

3 days in-game, no 6link, no 5link. I thought PoE2 was promoted to be easier with linking skills, but it's more expensive to get 5l than in PoE1. That jeweler orb for 5l costs like 40 exalts. I don't have such money and I need at least 2 of them.
I think links should appear on gems like those from weapon skills, by levels (may it be 72 for 5 and 88 for 6). Putting such basic thing behind massive paywall (you pay in exalts :P) is just BS design and I hate it.
