Metinstones – also known as Metins – are the central monster objects in Metin2, distributed across the entire game world and must be defeated. In the Sungma region, particularly in the Invasion Portal of Darkness, players encounter various variants of these stones. There are three official difficulty levels: easy, normal and hard. Those who want to farm efficiently in this area must understand the mechanics of the metinstones and proceed strategically.
What are Metinstones in Metin2?
Metinstones (also called "Metins") are stationary monster objects that appear on the maps of the game world. They are regarded as primary targets for regular gameplay progression and farming. Each metinstone respawns after a certain time once defeated. When attacking a metinstone, guardian mobs spawn that defend the stone and actively attack the player.
Defeating metinstones is one of the most fundamental activities in Metin2: it provides experience points, Yang (the main currency) and various drop items needed for character upgrades.
The Three Difficulty Levels of Metinstones
Metinstones exist in three variants that differ in their strength and the demands they place on the player. The Metin2 Wiki officially distinguishes:
| Variant | Difficulty Level | Suitable for |
|---|---|---|
| Metinstone (easy) | Low | Beginners and low levels |
| Metinstone (normal) | Medium | Mid-level characters |
| Metinstone (hard) | High | Advanced characters |
The exact level requirements and stat values depend on the respective game server and gameplay progress. In the Sungma area, and especially in the Invasion Portal of Darkness, you should be well-equipped before tackling the harder variants.
The Sungma Invasion Portal of Darkness
The Sungma region is one of the most challenging areas in Metin2. The Invasion Portal of Darkness is a special area within this zone where players encounter particularly strong enemies and metinstones. The area is suitable for players who have already developed their characters solidly and are looking for challenge and valuable drops.
Those who want to use the Invasion Portal of Darkness efficiently should pay attention to the following points:
- Check your equipment: High defence and offence are essential, as the guardian mobs of the metinstones in this area are particularly aggressive.
- Solo or group: Depending on your class and equipment, the area can be tackled solo or in a group. Groups share drops, solo you keep everything.
- Know the spawn rhythm: Metinstones respawn after being defeated. If you know the spawn points, you can farm efficiently in circles.
- Guardians first or stone first: Many players prefer to eliminate the guardian mobs first before attacking the metinstone. This prevents being overwhelmed.
Metinstone Rings and Events: 5 Metinstone Rings
In addition to regular farming, there is the "5 Metinstone Rings" event in Metin2. This event takes place at the Olympic Games and is meant to symbolically represent the Olympic Rings logo. The five rings are represented by spawned metins on the game map.
Important event information at a glance:
- The event is divided into different level ranges – every character finds an appropriate area.
- You must find the corresponding area yourself – the exact location is not revealed directly.
- When the event takes place is shown in the event calendar of the respective server.
If you don't want to miss the event, you should regularly check the Metin2 event calendar.
Metinstone Scroll – What's Behind It?
The Metinstone Scroll is a special item in Metin2. There are officially three different variants of it. These scrolls allow players to summon metinstones or interact with specific spawn mechanics. Since the wiki currently provides no more detailed information on this item, we recommend checking the Metin2 items section for current details.
Efficient Farming Strategies for Metinstones
Farming metinstones is the heart of Metin2 gameplay for many players. Here are proven strategies:
- Plan your route: Learn the spawn points of the metinstones on your target map by heart and walk them systematically.
- Adjust difficulty level: Start with easy metinstones and progress to normal and hard variants once your character is strong enough.
- Optimise drops: Keep an eye out for items that increase drop rate or Yang gains, if available on your server.
- Use class synergies: Some classes farm metinstones more efficiently than others. Check out your Metin2 class guide to get the most out of it.
- Watch out for PvP: In PvP-enabled zones, conflicts with other players can occur, especially at popular metinstone spots.
