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:

The journey to crafting Gems begins after joining Liu Bei's Volunteer Army in Chapter 1. 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 diligently during your travels. Completing side quests, accumulating Old Coins, and reading Inn letters also yield Pyroxene.

Crafting Gems:

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

Gem Leveling:

Repeatedly crafting a specific Gem type increases its effectiveness. These enhancements provide various buffs. Since you can initially equip only one Gem, strategic selection is key. Consider the Wellspring Gem for large-scale battles (healing based on enemy kills) or the Ascendence Gem for officer duels (increased block chance). While initially modest, these buffs become increasingly impactful over time.

Availability:

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