What is the Forest Metin?
The Forest Metin is a Grade 5 metinstone and is therefore among the more challenging metins in the game. It is found exclusively in the Cursed Forest and is aimed at players level 120 and above. Like all metinstones in this category, it spawns various enemies when destroyed and drops items relevant for character upgrades after being defeated.
The stone is not a dungeon boss fight, but an open world objective: whoever finds and destroys it first gets the drops. This makes it a particularly contested farming target on busy servers.
Location: Cursed Forest
The Forest Metin spawns exclusively in the Cursed Forest. This area is the only known spawn location for this stone. Players who want to farm the metin deliberately should search the area regularly or establish a fixed route through the possible spawn points.
Important: Metinstones don't spawn continuously. There are fixed server intervals. If you find the stone freshly spawned, you have good chances for a successful farm run – if you find it already cleared, you have to wait.
Base Data at a Glance

Spawn Monsters at the Forest Metin
When attacking the Forest Metin, three different monster types spawn that must first be defeated before the stone can be destroyed. These adds can become a challenge depending on your character build:
- Strong En-Tai Druid
- Strong En-Tai Fighter
- Strong En-Tai Warrior
All three enemies are classed as "strong", which indicates increased damage values and health points compared to normal forest creatures. For solo players at the level cap, it's manageable; if you're still a bit below level 120, you should get support. Group farming speeds up the process considerably.
Tip: Clear the adds quickly as they will interfere with your attack on the metinstone. A clear priority – first the druids and warriors, then the stone – pays off.
Drops from the Forest Metin
The Forest Metin drops items in several categories. All weapon drops and armour drops appear generally in the range +5 to +7 – that's a solid starting value for level 120 content for further upgrades. A special detail according to the wiki: Certain dropped items are tradeable, which makes them interesting for players who don't farm themselves but want to buy via the market.
| Drop Category | Details |
|---|---|
| Weapon Drops | +5 to +7, multiple types |
| Armour Drops | +5 to +7, multiple types |
| Jewellery Drops | Available |
| Upgrade Items (Uppit) | Available |
| Skill Book Drops | Multiple items |
| Other Drops | Multiple items, partially tradeable |
The dropped weapons and armour can be used as a basis for further enhancement or – if tradeable – sold directly on the market. Especially +7 items from the Cursed Forest are interesting for other level 120 players who want to optimise their build.
What are Metinstones? A Brief Overview
Metinstones – also called Metins in the game – are fixed spawn objects on the open world map. They have different grades (1 to 5), with higher grades being more difficult to defeat and offering correspondingly better drops. The Forest Metin is a Grade 5 stone and thus at the highest difficulty level.
Metinstones spawn in certain areas and disappear after being destroyed. After a server wait time, they reappear. The farming principle is simple: search the area, find the stone, kill the adds, destroy the stone, collect the drops. With Grade 5 stones like the Forest Metin, it's worth investing in good equipment before you start farming.
Metinstones can also be spawned via special Metin Summon Scrolls. There are three variants: easy, normal and hard. For the Forest Metin as a Grade 5 stone, the corresponding summon scrolls are relevant if you want to deliberately summon it instead of waiting for the natural spawn.
Farming Tips for Level 120+
If you want to farm the Forest Metin efficiently, you should keep the following points in mind:
- Level and Equipment: At level 120 with solid equipment, the stone is manageable solo. Below that, group play is recommended.
- Plan your Route: Since the Cursed Forest has multiple possible spawn positions, it pays to search in a fixed route.
- Factor in Competition: On busy servers, the Forest Metin is contested. At off-peak times (early morning or late night), you can expect less competition.
- Adds First: The three En-Tai monsters should be eliminated before attacking the stone itself to enable uninterrupted farming.
- Tradeable Items: Check after the drop which items are tradeable. These can be sold directly if you don't need them yourself.
- Use Summon Scrolls: With a Metin Summon Scroll, you can control the spawn yourself instead of waiting for the random server spawn.
