Dropped off an Arborean Sapling, twice!

I figured this would be mainly off the Mature Aboreans, but I had my luck with the Saplings. Twice! To get the first one to drop was a LONG camp... A tracker was vital for me. Kill all Aboreans (sprouts, saplings, mature). When none are up, clear the areas around the abandoned druid ring and the west orc camps outside of Crushbone. Good luck in your hunts!
Do these still drop?

I been playing on new progression server and doing the newbie armor quest for my Cleric. After about a week in search of Arborean Amber I haven't found any. Can anyone tell me if they still dropping in 2020? Or did Daybreak remove this drop?

I think these are part of the newbie quests from LoY. I'd need confirmation or some research on this to make sure.

Yes, the quests are already live on Mangler. I completed half of the armor ones on my Cleric and got everything for a Bard I have been playing on Mangler as well. So the mods and quests are active, but this one drop might not be.

Also, Thank you for the reply.

I can confirm to any players on Mangler that Arboean Amber drops. I finally got one today. Got my Cleric's Sylvan Initiate Morningstar. I have to say though, I camped the Ancient Cyclops back in the old days and this quest drop of Arborean Amber was rarer than the AC Ring. The Arboeans are already rare monsters in greater Faydark, Then the Amber drop is even rarer. Or I was just wicked unlucky.

For the record it dropped off A Mature Arborean.

Amber

I have been trying to accomplish this for about 2 weeks. I didnt count my Mature Arborean kills, but I'd say it has to be around 20 per day, figure 4-5 days per week. Of course, these don't show up when you need them.... I finally did get an amber from a Mature Arborean and guess what?? Someone else had killed and left it there.....what luck! Best places I found to hunt were to the North of Orc Hill and by the entrance to BB mtns. Good luck all!

OK.... I've finished this quest 2 times (magicians on two different servers) It did take awhile and maybe 20 Mature Arboreans to get the amber loot.... BUT... I have a new magician on the test server... I've hunted for 6 days and have killed 56 Mature Arboreans and half as many saplings.. and the Amber has not been found yet.
This is too much.. I really believe the quest is broken (on the test server anyway.)
I really wish I could leave some words of encouragement here.. but.. hummmmm?

OK.. time to edit my post...
76 Mature Arborean and around 40 arborean sapling kills.. 8 days of hunting.. I got the Arborean Amber.. was found on the Mature Arborean..
And btw... made the kill at N660, P1730,, I know the Arborean wander in many places in the woods east and west of Orc Hill.. but this place was kinda out of their normal pathing... (may not mean nothing)
OH!, as for words of encouragement...If anything, you may get some good exp while on your quest. I leveled from 10 to 14 looking for the Arborean Amber.. I guess all was not lost.. lol
Now, I'm out to find a Pristien Forest Drakling scale... I just want to cry now....

If the quest was broken back then, then it has still not been fixed. Since the last patch I noticed the Mature Arborean spawn rate HAS to have dropped and (when arborean DID spawn after 3hrs....) dropped either bark or nothing at all. Where this site got that arborean amber was a common drop is beyond me considering I've spent about a week on getting this amber for my mage's staff with about 5 rangers and druids helping me track each day(all higher lvls). If this quest is indeed broken then they need to fix it b/c it's bugging a lot of people other than me. Hopefully others who start the quest have better luck than me.

well i have a lev 12 paly trying to do the quest and have a friend lev 15 ranger tracking all the trees in the zone for 3 days now and have killed a lot of them. Well nothing yet from any of them wounder if they nerfed the quest with the last patch or just forget to add the gem back in. well that is my 2 cp if any one had and better luck please post thanks.

Are they no drop? Also how rare are they?

they are no drop, but I don't know how rare they are. I am lucky I guess, first time I killed one I got this.
Saplings

These also drop off of Saplings

They also drop off Elders, more commonly than mature. As far as I can tell the drop rate is best for Elder, then worse for Mature, then very rare for Saplings.
