What are Metin Stones in Metin2?
Metin Stones – also called "Metins" for short – are special monster objects that appear as stone monoliths in the game world of Metin2. They are a fundamental farming target for players of all experience levels. When a player defeats a Metin Stone, they receive items and experience points. Metin Stones take their name from the crystals of the same name, which according to game lore corrupt the world of Metin2 – so they are not only mechanically central, but also narratively important.
In the English wiki, the entries "Metin Stone" and "Metin Stones" link directly to the main page "Metins". This shows that Metin Stones and Metins are the same thing in the game context. The term "Moonlight Metin" is a specific variant of this Metin Stone family and is part of the named, thematically embedded Metins in the game.
The Three Difficulty Levels of Metin Stones
Metin Stones generally appear in three variants, which differ in difficulty level:
| Variant | Designation (EN) | Designation (EN) | Special Feature |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Metin Stone (Easy) | Metin Stone Spawner | Lowest resistance, suitable for beginners |
| 2 | Metin Stone (Normal) | Metin Stone Spawner | Medium difficulty level, broad player base |
| 3 | Metin Stone (Hard) | Metin Stone Spawner | Highest resistance, for experienced characters |
All three variants share the designation "Metin Stone Spawner" in the English wiki. This underscores their common game mechanic: they spawn on the map, attract surrounding monsters and must be actively fought. The difficulty primarily affects how much damage output and defence your own character needs to bring.
Metin Stone Summoning Scroll: Spawn Strategically
In addition to the natural spawn of Metin Stones in the game world, there is the Metin Stone Summoning Scroll. This is a consumable item that allows players to summon Metin Stones at a location of their choice – ideal for efficient farming without having to search for long.
According to the wiki, there are three different variants of the Metin Stone Summoning Scroll. These likely correspond to the three difficulty levels (easy, normal, hard), so players can strategically spawn the Metin Stone suitable for their level. The exact description of each scroll variant is not further elaborated in the wiki at the moment.
Practical tip: When using a Metin Stone Summoning Scroll, you should first ensure that the environment is suitable for the corresponding spawn. Metin Stones always attract companion monsters – sufficient space and preparation are crucial.

The "5 Metin Stone Rings" Event is a limited-time in-game event that takes place on the occasion of the Olympic Games. The concept: the five Olympic rings are symbolised by spawned Metins.

Farm Metin Stones Efficiently – Practical Tips
If you want to farm Metin Stones efficiently, you should pay attention to a few basic points:
- Adjust the difficulty level: Choose the Metin Stone type that your character can reliably defeat – Metin Stone (Easy) for lower levels, Metin Stone (Hard) for well-equipped characters.
- Use the summoning scroll: With the Metin Stone Summoning Scroll, you save search time. Deploy it in suitable terrain and be prepared for the companion monsters that spawn with it.
- Plan for companion monsters: Metin Stones always spawn guardian monsters in the surrounding area. These can become dangerous if ignored.
- Keep events in mind: The "5 Metin Stone Rings" Event offers additional farming opportunities. It's worth checking the event calendar regularly.

Metin Stones in Game Context: Lore & Significance
Metin Stones are not just a gameplay means to an end. In the world of Metin2, they stand for the dark energy emanating from the titular Metin crystals and corrupting living beings. The stones that players encounter on the maps are manifestations of this energy – places where corruption is particularly concentrated.
The Moonlight Metin is a thematically embedded variant that – based on its name – is linked to the moon theme of the game. Different Metin Stones bear different names that hint at their location or special features. This creates atmospheric variety in the game world without changing the fundamental farming mechanic.
