Mastering Gem Crafting in Dynasty Warriors: Origins

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

Unlocking Gem Crafting:

To begin crafting Gems, you must first progress to Chapter 1 and join Liu Bei's Volunteer Army. Visit an Inn to receive a letter from Zhang Fei, introducing Gems and their raw material: Pyroxene.

Acquiring Pyroxene:

Pyroxene is found throughout the game world as large, jewel-like formations. These spawn randomly, so explore the overworld between battles. Additionally, Pyroxene can be obtained as rewards for side quests, collecting Old Coins, and reading letters at Inns.

Crafting Gems:

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

Gem Leveling:

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

Dynasty Warriors: Origins is available now on PS5, PC, and Xbox Series X/S.
