Mastering Gem Crafting in Dynasty Warriors: Origins
Gems are crucial in Dynasty Warriors: Origins, providing significant battle advantages. This guide details their crafting process.
Unlocking Gem Crafting:
To begin crafting, join Liu Bei's Volunteer Army in Chapter 1. Visiting an Inn will trigger a letter from Zhang Fei, introducing Gems and their raw material, Pyroxene.
Acquiring Pyroxene:
Pyroxene is found throughout the overworld as large, jewel-like formations. These spawn randomly, so explore diligently between battles. Side quests, collecting Old Coins, and Inn letters also reward Pyroxene, ensuring a steady supply.
Crafting Gems:
Return to an Inn to craft Gems from Pyroxene. The crafting process is randomized; the number of Pyroxene used doesn't affect the outcome. However, a white glowing aura around a Gem type in the crafting menu guarantees that only that type of Gem will be created during that crafting session.
Gem Leveling and Strategic Use:
Repeatedly crafting a specific Gem type increases its effectiveness. Since you initially equip only one Gem, strategic choices are vital. The Wellspring Gem, healing upon enemy kills, suits large-scale battles, while the Ascendence Gem, boosting officer attack block chance, is better for officer duels. Though initially weak, these buffs become increasingly impactful.
This concludes your guide to Gem crafting in Dynasty Warriors: Origins.
Dynasty Warriors: Origins is available on PS5, PC, and Xbox Series X/S.
