What is the Garnet Necklace in Metin2?
The Garnet Necklace is a neck accessory item in Metin2 that belongs to the necklace equipment slot. Like all necklaces in the game, it can be worn by any class – whether Warrior, Ninja, Sura, Shaman or Lycanthrope. It falls into the category of upgradeable accessories and can be enhanced like belts, earrings and bracelets through the use of ores. The Garnet Necklace is just one of several available necklace variants, which are named after their respective material or gemstone.
All Necklace Types at a Glance
In Metin2, there are various necklaces that differ by material and quality. The known variants from the official Wiki include:
| Necklace | English Name | Special Feature |
|---|---|---|
| Garnet Necklace | Garnet Necklace | Gemstone necklace, upgradeable with ores |
| Amethyst Necklace | Amethyst Necklace | Gemstone necklace, upgradeable with ores |
| Ebony Necklace | Ebony Necklace | Material necklace, upgradeable with ores |
| Golden Necklace | Golden Necklace | Material necklace, upgradeable with ores |
| Necklace of Harmony | Necklace of Harmony | Named special necklace |
| Necklace of Love | Necklace of Love | Named special necklace |
All listed necklaces share a fundamental feature: they fit in the necklace slot and can be worn by all classes without restriction. The exact stats of each variant depend on the specific necklace and its upgrade level.
Upgrading Necklaces – How the Ore System Works
Necklaces in Metin2 are accessories that can be enhanced with ores. This applies explicitly to the Garnet Necklace as well. The upgrade system for accessories works on the same principle as belts, earrings and bracelets.
Specifically, this means:
- Ores are required to increase the upgrade level of a necklace
- With each upgrade step, the necklace's values increase
- The system applies uniformly to all necklace variants in the game
- Belts, earrings and bracelets follow the same mechanic
If you want to use a Garnet Necklace long-term, you should start upgrading early. A higher upgrade level makes a difference in daily farming and PvP situations.
Which Classes Can Wear the Garnet Necklace?
One of the most practical features of all necklaces in Metin2 is universal wearability. The Garnet Necklace – like any other necklace – can be worn by all classes. There are no class restrictions for the necklace slot. This makes necklaces particularly flexible equipment items that can easily be traded or passed between characters, as long as the trading system allows it.
This is a clear advantage over class-bound armour pieces like helmets or body armour, which are often only available for certain character types.
Garnet Necklace vs. Other Necklaces – What's Worth It?
Since the official Wiki does not list concrete stat differences between individual necklace types, no direct numerical comparison can be drawn. However, in Metin2, the general rule applies: the quality and upgrade level of a necklace is more important than the pure type name.
A few practical rules of thumb when farming necklaces:
- Availability: Look at which necklace you can reliably obtain on the market or through farming
- Upgrade level: A well-upgraded necklace beats an unupgraded higher-quality variant
- Special necklaces: Necklace of Harmony and Necklace of Love have their own names, which often suggests special properties
- Ore costs: Calculate upgrade costs before purchasing a necklace
Necklaces in Equipment Context
Necklaces are part of the accessory system in Metin2, which also includes earrings, bracelets and belts. This slot is underestimated by many players, but upgrades provide noticeable stat bonuses. Especially for characters optimised for certain damage or defence values, the necklace slot is a relevant part of the overall build.
If you want to optimise your character, don't neglect the necklace slot. Even a simple Garnet Necklace at a higher upgrade level can make a difference in farming. For complete build optimisation, we also recommend checking out matching earrings and bracelets that work with the same ore system.
