The Cor Daemonis (Rough) is an item from the field of Dragon Stone Alchemy in Metin2. Dragon Stone Alchemy was introduced with game version 13.3 on 26 February 2013 and has since been a central system for character enhancement. Dragon Stones are managed exclusively in your own Dragon Stone inventory and grant your character a variety of bonuses – depending on the colour, class, purity and level of the stone.
What is Dragon Stone Alchemy?
Dragon Stone Alchemy is a standalone enhancement system in Metin2 that functions independently of regular equipment. Dragon Stones do not appear in your normal inventory, but have their own Dragon Stone inventory that you can open via the corresponding button in your inventory, in the chat bar or by pressing the assigned key.
The system has been expanded multiple times over the years:
- Version 13.3 (26.02.2013): Introduction of Dragon Stone Alchemy
- Version 19.0 (22.01.2019): Mythical Alchemy was added
- Version 23.2 (26.07.2023): Dragon Amethyst was added
The goal is clear: by collecting, refining and using Dragon Stones, you permanently enhance your character with additional bonuses.
The six Dragon Stone types and their effects
There are a total of seven different Dragon Stone types, which are distinguished by their colour and each have a different effect. Dragon Amethyst was added with version 23.2.
| Stone | Colour / Type | Special Feature |
|---|---|---|
| Onyx | Black | Individual effect (see in-game details) |
| Diamond | White/Clear | Individual effect (see in-game details) |
| Ruby | Red | Individual effect (see in-game details) |
| Jade | Green | Individual effect (see in-game details) |
| Sapphire | Blue | Individual effect (see in-game details) |
| Garnet | Dark Red | Individual effect (see in-game details) |
| Dragon Amethyst | Violet | Available since version 23.2 |
Each type affects different character values. Which effect exactly matches your playstyle and class, you can see directly in the Dragon Stone inventory in Metin2.
Class, Purity and Level: The three enhancement levels
Every Dragon Stone – including Cor Daemonis (Rough) – can be enhanced at three different levels. These levels are independent of each other and affect the strength of the bonuses in different ways.
Class
The class determines how many bonuses a Dragon Stone can have. The higher the class, the more bonuses are possible. The class levels in ascending order are:
- Rough – Entry level, few bonuses
- Polished
- Rare
- Antique
- Legendary
- Mythical – highest class, maximum number of bonuses
The Cor Daemonis (Rough) is at the lowest class level Rough. It is the starting point from which you reach higher classes through refinement.
Purity
The purity level increases the effect of existing bonuses – in other words, existing bonuses become stronger and higher. So it's not about adding new bonuses, but about increasing the effectiveness of those already present.
Level
The effect of a Dragon Stone can also be increased through its level. Class, purity and level together determine how powerful a Dragon Stone ultimately is.
| Level | Effect | Goal |
|---|---|---|
| Class | More bonuses possible | Rough → Polished → Rare → Antique → Legendary → Mythical |
| Purity | Bonuses become stronger | Higher purity level = higher effect |
| Level | Increase effect | Level up for more effect |
Cor Daemonis (Rough): Classification and significance
The Cor Daemonis (Rough) – internationally known as Cor Draconis (Rough) – is an item in the Dragon Stone Alchemy category. The name "Rough" directly refers to the lowest class level in the Dragon Stone system. As a rough version of a Dragon Stone, it provides the basic functionality of the system, but is the starting point for all further refinement steps.
The same item is referred to as follows in other languages:
- English: Cor Draconis (Rough)
- French: Cor Draconis (brut)
- Polish: Cor Draconis (surowe)
- Dutch: Cor Draconis (Ruw)
- Romanian: Cor Draconis (Brut)
- Czech: Cor Draconis (surové)
- Hungarian: Cor Draconis (Nyers)
The item is part of the broader Dragon Stone Alchemy system and is managed in the Dragon Stone inventory, not in the regular inventory.
Where can you get Dragon Stones?
A well-known way to obtain Dragon Stones is through the daily Dragon Stone quest. This quest is available for all characters from level 30 onwards. For information about other sources – such as drops from certain enemies or events – please refer to the official wiki and the game itself.
Dragon Stone Shards are also part of the system. They play a role in collecting and combining Dragon Stones and have their own category in Dragon Stone Alchemy.
Using Dragon Stone Alchemy efficiently: Practical tips
Anyone wanting to understand the system from the ground up and use it efficiently should keep the following points in mind:
- Open Dragon Stone inventory: Use the button in your inventory, in the chat bar or the corresponding key – the regular inventory will not show any Dragon Stones.
- Choose colour wisely: Each of the six types (plus Dragon Amethyst) has a different effect. Adjust your choice to your class and playstyle.
- Increase class progressively: Start with Rough and improve the class over time. Higher classes allow for more bonuses.
- Don't neglect purity and level: Even though class is important – purity and level determine how strong the bonuses actually are.
- Make use of the daily quest: From level 30 onwards, the daily Dragon Stone quest is available. Completing it regularly is a reliable source for new stones.
- Mythical Alchemy as a goal: Since version 19.0, Mythical Alchemy is the highest expansion level. In the long term, it's worth working towards it.
