What is Dragon Stone Alchemy in Metin2?
Dragon Stone Alchemy is an independent character enhancement system that operates separately from your normal inventory. Dragon Stones are displayed exclusively in the dedicated Dragon Stone inventory – not in your normal inventory. 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): Addition of Mythical Alchemy
- Version 23.2 (26.07.2023): Introduction of Dragon Amethyst
The Dragon Stone Alchemy overview can be opened via the inventory button, the chat bar or a keyboard shortcut.
The six Dragon Stone Types at a Glance
There are six different types of Dragon Stones, each with a different effect on your character. Each colour represents a different category of bonuses.
| Dragon Stone | Colour | Special Feature |
|---|---|---|
| Onyx | Black | Unique effect type |
| Diamond | White/Clear | Unique effect type |
| Ruby | Red | Unique effect type |
| Jade | Green | Unique effect type |
| Sapphire | Blue | Unique effect type |
| Garnet | Dark Red | Unique effect type |
Additionally, with version 23.2, Dragon Amethyst was introduced as another Stone type. The Green Dragon Bean is relevant in the context of these different stone types and their improvement – it belongs to the materials related to Dragon Stone Alchemy.
Enhancement Levels: Class, Purity and Level
The heart of Dragon Stone Alchemy is a three-tier enhancement system. Each Dragon Stone can be refined on three different levels:
Class
The class of a Dragon Stone determines how many bonuses it can have simultaneously. The higher the class, the more bonuses are possible. The classes from low to high are:
- Rough
- Polished
- Rare
- Antique
- Legendary
- Mythical
Purity
The purity level increases the potency of existing bonuses. A Dragon Stone with higher purity therefore provides stronger or higher values for its bonuses – the type of bonuses remains the same, but their strength increases.
Level
The effect of a Dragon Stone can also be increased through level progression. Level and purity work complementarily: both methods increase effectiveness, but through different mechanisms.
| Level | What it does | Example Variations |
|---|---|---|
| Class | More bonus slots | Rough → Polished → Rare → Antique → Legendary → Mythical |
| Purity | Stronger bonus values | Low purity → High purity |
| Level | Higher effectiveness | Increases through refinement |
Where to Get Dragon Stones?
Dragon Stones can be obtained in various ways in Metin2. An important and regular method is the daily quest:
- Daily Quest: The daily Dragon Stone quest is available for characters level 30 and above. It provides regular Dragon Stones and is a solid entry point for those building their Alchemy system.
If you consistently complete the daily quest, you will build up a stable base of Dragon Stones over time. Especially for beginners, this is the most efficient free way to collect initial stones and start refining.
Dragon Stone Shards – What's Behind It?
In addition to finished Dragon Stones, there are also Dragon Stone Shards as a separate resource within the Alchemy system. Dragon Stone Shards (as well as the Dragon Stone Shards+ variant) also belong to the Dragon Stone Alchemy category and play a role in building or improving Dragon Stones. For details on specific uses, check the Dragon Stone Alchemy overview in the game menu.
Practical Tips for Getting Started with Dragon Stone Alchemy
If you're just starting out with Dragon Stone Alchemy, you should keep these points in mind:
- Don't miss the daily quest: Complete it daily from level 30 onwards – it's the most reliable free stone source.
- Focus on class first: More class means more bonus slots. A Legendary class stone can carry more simultaneous bonuses than a Rough stone.
- Choose stone colour to match your character: Each of the six colours offers different bonuses. Find out which stone type suits your class playstyle.
- Mythical Alchemy is endgame: The Mythical tier introduced in version 19.0 is the system's maximum – first work towards solid Legendaries.
- Keep an eye on your Dragon Stone inventory: Since stones don't appear in your normal inventory, regularly open the Alchemy overview and track your progress.
