Gems are very important for crafting. Many (or all) of the best crafted items require the right gems. In order to find all the gems you need to craft those amazing items, you'll want to know which containers can have crafting gems inside. It's important to note that most of the containers listed below will not always give a crafting gem. You'll need to save the game, try the container, then reload if you don't find the gem you're after.
