Definately NOT worth giving up the exp for just one gem.

I always use the save/reload at the malachite nodes in Orobas so i end up with at least 3 or 4 gems from a pair of nodes. Sometimes very boring and discouraging but WELL worth using those gems on your high end armor set and weapon(s). aargh

Friendship is like peeing on yourself: everyone can see it, but only you get the warm feeling that it brings.
