Metin of Toughness – Metinstone Guide | Metin2

What is the Metin of Toughness?

The Metin of Toughness is a metinstone type in Metin2 that spawns as a stationary monster in the open game world. Like all metinstones, it must be actively attacked and destroyed – it does not attack itself, but spawns guardian monsters in its vicinity whilst it is active. There are three variants with varying strength: easy, normal, and hard. International names for the stone include Metin de Force (fr), Metin della Durezza (it), and Metin Twardości (pl).

Metinstones in Metin2 – Basics

Metinstones are a central gameplay element in Metin2. They spawn regularly in various areas of the game world and drop rewards when destroyed. Additionally, players can summon stones themselves via metinstone summoning scrolls. There are three different types of summoning scrolls, each summoning different stones.

Metinstones are an important farming source for many players, as they provide Yang, items, and quest progress. Those who farm efficiently seek out the difficulty level suitable for their current level and class.

The Three Difficulty Levels at a Glance

The Metin of Toughness exists in three variations. The following table summarises the key differences, as far as known from official wiki sources:

The exact stat values of individual variants are not officially published. As a rule of thumb: the higher the difficulty level, the more damage potential and equipment are required.

Quest: Destroy Metin of Toughness

The quest "Destroy Metin of Toughness" requires you to destroy a certain number of these metinstones. Here applies an important exception:

This is a common mistake among players: if you farm exclusively in the demon tower, you won't be able to complete the quest. Instead, actively search for stones in the regular areas of the game world.

Metinstone Summoning Scrolls – Summon Stones Yourself

For those who don't want to wait for natural metinstone spawns, metinstone summoning scrolls can be used. These items allow players to actively summon metinstones without waiting for a respawn. There are three different variants of the summoning scroll – which stones they summon depends on the type of scroll.

Summoning scrolls are especially useful when you need specific metinstones for quests or farming without waiting for a respawn. They can be obtained through trading with other players or via certain in-game sources.

Strategy: Farm Metin of Toughness Efficiently

Efficiently farming metinstones depends on several factors – class, level, equipment, and chosen area. Here are the key points:

• Adjust difficulty: Choose the variant (easy/normal/hard) that matches your character's current level. Weaker stones waste time, whilst too-strong stones risk unnecessary potions.
• Note the demon tower exception: For the quest, the demon tower stone doesn't count. Farm for quests exclusively in the open world.
• Plan for guardian monsters: Metinstones regularly spawn surrounding monsters. Keep sufficient healing potions ready and clear the guardians before or during your attack on the stone.
• Use summoning scrolls: If needed, use summoning scrolls to bypass the spawn waiting time and deliberately summon stones near you.
• Group strategy: Hard variants can be defeated much faster as a team. A well-coordinated group divides guardians and the stone between members.

Metinstones in the Game's Context

Metinstones are not just pure farming targets – they are the namesake element of the game itself. "Metin2" derives its name from these mysterious stones that threaten the game world. In the story's lore, metinstones are sources of dark energy that summon monsters in their vicinity and make areas dangerous.

Accordingly, they are present in almost all areas of the game – from simple beginner zones to high-level dungeons like the demon tower. The Metin of Toughness is just one of many metinstone types that exist in the game. Other variants have different names, properties, and associated quests.
