Red topaz is a type of semi-precious gem. It is obtained by cutting an uncut red topaz at level 16 Crafting, though there is a chance (that decreases as Crafting level increases) the player will accidentally destroy it in the process, turning it into a crushed gem. Successfully cutting an uncut red topaz grants the player 25 Crafting experience; if it is crushed, the player will only receive 6.3 Crafting experience.
