The Demon's Memento is an item enhancement material in Metin2. It exists in two tiers: the basic version Demon's Memento and the upgraded form Demon's Memento+. The path from basic to plus version goes through a specific quest with the NPC Biologist – the so-called "Biologist's Research". Anyone who wants to use the item purposefully must know both versions and their differences.
What is Demon's Memento?
Demon's Memento belongs to the category of item enhancement materials in Metin2. Such items are used to upgrade or improve equipment or other items in the game. The basic version of Demon's Memento is known by various names on different international servers:
| Language | Name (Basic) | Name (Plus) |
|---|---|---|
| German | Dämonenandenken | Dämonenandenken+ |
| English | – | – |
| Spanish | Recuerdo del Demonio | Recuerdo del Demonio+ |
| French | Souvenir de démon | Souvenir de démon+ |
| Turkish | Şeytan Hatırası | Şeytan Hatırası+ |
| Polish | Pamiątka Po Demonie | Pamiątka Po Demonie+ |
| Hungarian | Démoni emléktárgy | Démoni emléktárgy+ |
| Italian | Ricordo del Demone | – |
| Greek | – | Ενθύμιο του Δαίμονα+ |
| Arabic | تذكار شيطاني | تذكار شيطاني+ |
The existence of a plus version shows that Demon's Memento can be deliberately upgraded within the game's system. This progression is typical for Metin2's item upgrade system, where many materials and consumables come in improved variants.
Demon's Memento vs. Demon's Memento+: What's the Difference?
The plus variant (Demon's Memento+) is the upgraded form of the regular Demon's Memento. In Metin2, this follows a familiar pattern: basic items are transformed into stronger versions through quests, crafting or NPC interactions. The plus version typically offers improved values or greater effectiveness when enhancing items – specific values should be checked in-game, as they may differ between server versions.
What's crucial is that the upgrade process from basic Demon's Memento to Demon's Memento+ is directly linked to the NPC Biologist and a dedicated quest.
The Biologist's Research: The Path to Demon's Memento+
The quest "The Biologist's Research (Demon's Memento)" is the central mechanism for converting regular Demon's Memento into the plus variant. This quest is known by its own names in different language versions of the game:
| Language | Quest Name |
|---|---|
| German | Die Forschung des Biologen (Dämonenandenken) |
| Czech | Biologický výzkum 3 |
| English | The research of the biologist 3 |
| Spanish | La Investigación del Biólogo 50 |
| French | La recherche du biologiste 3 |
| Greek | Η έρευνα του βιολόγου 3 |
| Hungarian | A biológus vizsgálata 3 |
| Italian | Ricerca del Biologo (ricordo del demone) |
| Dutch | Die Forschung des Biologen (Dämonenandenken) |
| Polish | Badania Biologa 3 |
| Romanian | Cercetările biologului 3 |
| Turkish | Biolog Araştırma Görevi 3 |
The NPC Biologist is responsible for various research quests in Metin2. These quests form a quest chain where players gather items and submit them to the Biologist to receive improved versions. The quest around Demon's Memento is part of this series – on many server versions managed as the third part of the biology quest line (recognisable by the "3" in the international quest name).
Where to Get Demon's Memento?
Demon's Memento counts among the materials that are typically obtained through multiple methods in Metin2. Since it's an item enhancement material, the following sources are possible:
- Monster drops: Many enhancement materials in Metin2 drop from specific monsters or Metins. The exact location to find Demon's Memento depends on your server and server version.
- Merchants and NPC shops: Some item enhancement materials can be obtained from special NPC vendors.
- Player market: Since Metin2 supports active player-to-player trading, Demon's Memento is often available through the marketplace or in direct trades with other players.
- Events and rewards: Gameforge regularly integrates seasonal events where special items are given as rewards.
For specific drop sources, check the official patch notes or the community wiki for your server version.
Tips for Using Demon's Memento Effectively
If you want to use Demon's Memento strategically, keep these points in mind:
- Use basic vs. plus wisely: Consider whether to use the basic Demon's Memento directly or first upgrade it to the plus version. The plus variant is usually more valuable – direct use of the basic version can be inefficient if upgrading to Demon's Memento+ is required for your purpose.
- Don't skip the Biologist's quest: The research quest from the Biologist is the only documented way to get the plus version. Ignoring this quest wastes potential.
- Keep an eye on market prices: Since both regular Demon's Memento and the plus variant may be tradeable, it's worth comparing market prices before upgrading or selling items.
- Build up a supply: Item enhancement materials are often needed in larger quantities. Farm or buy an appropriate stock before you start enhancing.
- Consider server differences: Metin2 is operated by Gameforge for different regions. Quest availability and item values may vary slightly between versions.
How It Fits into Metin2's Enhancement System
Demon's Memento is one of many item enhancement materials in Metin2. The game offers a comprehensive system where weapons, armour and accessories can be strengthened through various materials and processes. Generally, there are two categories:
- General enhancement items: Used for many different items (e.g. upgrade stones).
- Specific materials: Like Demon's Memento, needed for certain enhancement paths or quests.
Demon's Memento falls into the latter category. Its connection to the Biologist's quest shows that it's part of a structured progression path – not a mere consumable, but a deliberately usable upgrade item with a clear development line (Basic → Plus).
Players who want to dive deeper into the enhancement system should also know about related items and quests from the Biologist. The "Biologist's Research" quest chain includes multiple parts and covers various items – Demon's Memento is a central component.
