Gem echange rates

The Euphonia's Barter Box and Dusty Old Treasure of Crystal Cove crafting interfaces allow to exchange trade in gems for other gems or doubloons.

Note that because of the odd trade-down sequences, it is most efficient to farm Stolen Jaspers and Stolen Rubies. With these two you can trade-down on a 1-for-1 basis to everything else except Stolen Malachites, Stolen Star Sapphires and Stolen Diamonds. The only way to obtain new Malachites, Star Sapphires and Diamonds is to trade-in at a 3-for-1 basis (e.g. from Stolen Opals to Stolen Malachites).

• Stolen Jasper -> Stolen Opal -> (legacy) Stolen Star Ruby -> Stolen Emerald -> (legacy) Stolen Sapphire -> (legacy) Stolen Topaz -> (legacy) Stolen Amber -> Stolen Pyrite
• (legacy) Stolen Malachite -> (legacy) Stolen Star Sapphire -> (legacy) Stolen Diamond -> Stolen Ruby -> Stolen Amethyst -> Stolen Obsidian -> (legacy) Stolen Alabaster -> Stolen Pyrite
