Level 8 Uncut Spirit Gem, best way to find?
I've been farming for an uncut spirit gem level 8 for about 6-8 hours for the past 3 days on the Spires of Deshar on Act II normal, and The Dreadnaught without any luck. Does anyone have any other better methods to obtain a level 8 uncut spirit gem?
Last part of my build I am trying to get to work. Any input would be greatly appreciated.

I’ve had this issue myself and assuming your ssf you’ll just have to keep trying to farm lower zones for one to drop. Just make sure your loot filter will actually show the gem otherwise buying one is going to be your easiest option. Like others have said just leveling another character is an alternative that will only take a couple hours rather than multiple days.
I'll trade you one unless ur ssf
Run the Deshar maps all the way to end of dreadnaught. They reset by the time you finish and can keep looping, I made 30div in a couple of days selling lvl 7-9 spirits last league (because I found someone who was buying, lucky me lol).
Make a new character and farm with it, you’re going to get a 8 lvl gen a some point
I just ran Deshar over and over again until it finally dropped. It probably took 20 to 30 runs for two level 8 spirit gems.
Would’ve been better off making a new character and getting them from a quest lol
I have heard that farming the Dreadnought is a good way to get level 8 Spirit gems.
Lots of mobs of the right level range.
Every zone from between level 27 - 31
what are lvl 8 spirit gems for? my understanding was unlike skill gems cost going up as gem level increases, spirit gem level increases don’t increase reservation and for minion skills can actually reduce reservation
No shot you did this, go forward and get higher lvls and skip 8 why would you do this am i missing something?
Buy one brother
I wouldnt blame you if you did this in a trade league , took me 2 days 2 months ago to buy 1 lvl 8 spirit gem from trade board and it was like the last one to ever be sold on the trade site lmao . even guildies ran out of them , damn .
Trade
the wiki article about uncut gems have drop level breakpoints displayed. go to any area that says level 27. levels are shown on map tooltip.
fyi: you can do level 26 also, but only rare mobs will drop then a level 8, all other will drop level 7. when you go to a level 28 area, level 8 is already off the table.
i once made a gem crafting suggestion, but i didn't get enough attention to reach GGG. the need for specific gem levels is still there for setting up a build and i guess it won't go away whatever GGG say they want us to allways and only play max level gems (see interview taverntalk)
