How To Craft Gems in Dynasty Warriors: Origins

Mastering Gem Crafting in Dynasty Warriors: Origins

Gems are crucial in Dynasty Warriors: Origins, providing significant battle advantages. This guide details how to acquire and craft these powerful items.

Unlocking Gem Crafting:

To begin crafting, you must first 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 during your travels. Additionally, Pyroxene can be obtained as rewards for side quests, collecting Old Coins, and reading Inn letters.

Crafting Gems:

Once you have Pyroxene, return to an Inn to begin crafting. The crafting process is randomized. The number of Pyroxene used doesn't affect the outcome; the type of Gem created is random. However, a white glowing aura around a Gem in the crafting menu indicates that only that Gem type can be crafted during that session.

Gem Leveling:

Repeatedly crafting a specific Gem type will increase its effectiveness. These buffs, while initially small, become increasingly impactful with refinement. Consider the Gem's benefits carefully, as only one Gem can be equipped at a time. For example, the Wellspring Gem is ideal for large-scale battles, while the Ascendence Gem excels in officer duels.

Conclusion:

This guide provides a comprehensive overview of Gem crafting in Dynasty Warriors: Origins. Strategic Gem selection and refinement are key to mastering the game's combat.
