Bag of Jewels
Considering it sells for between 7-9 gold (the goblet), i don’t think it’s impossible to get the bag of jewels.

My sister got 2 of them to drop in CM last night.
I had one drop from Arah last night.
They’re a bit rare to find, annoyingly enough, but they are there.
As far as the goblet of kings is concerned, I wouldn’t stress out about the bag of jewels. Keep doing dungeons to try and get it. If you’re not able to get the jewel bag, you’ll easily have earned enough gold to straight up buy the goblet of kings from the TP. Easy, peasy.
I got a bag of jewels yesterday in fotm. I usually get about 1 every other fractal run. I just open them and sell the crests to a vendor for a few silver. There are better exchange rates for SP than GoK.

Bags of Jewels still drop, and yes, fractals is a good place to get them. They have the same icon as the bags dungeon token appear in, so you have to be careful before double clicking.
The Goblet currently sells for 9 gold on the TP. Of the components there are about 5 gold worth of gold ingots, 40 s worth of Mystic Coin and an Eldritch Scroll, which costs 50 skill points. The skill points alone are worth more than 9 gold if you use them correctly, so I would buy the goblet directly rather than hope the bag of jewels drops for you.
Good point about the Bag of Jewels, guys! I’ll remember to sell it directly instead of opening it for the gems if/when I get one in Fractals.
Bags of jewels are soulbound on acquire.

@Cormac: Oh, really? I misread what Ayrilana said then. Ah well. On the other hand, it’s not like I have a shortage of skill points (each of my 5 mains has more than 450 skill points!), so maybe I’ll just craft it myself if I get one.

I probably should have worded it better. I was referring to selling the goblet, not the bag.
Thanks, I thought they are removed from the game, haven’t seen it for so long. Probably they only decreased the drop rate.
They drop fairly often from fractal chests.
