Flawless Square gems (AKA FS or FSGs) are the 8th rank of gem, and the highest that can be found from monster or chest drops in Diablo 3. (Marquise and Imperial gems are dropped in Reaper of Souls).

During most of Diablo 3 Vanilla the Flawless Square was the only type of gem that dropped on the Inferno difficulty. (Prior to Patch 1.0.4, Square gems also dropped in Inferno). During much of D3v, Flawless Squares were the default gem rank and often served as a form of currency, and were the base level gem that players spoke of when describing crafting costs.

In D3v2 Flawless Squares are still the highest level gem that can drop, but with the old difficulty tiers removed this gem begins to drop around level 55, and is the only gem seen above that level.
