Metin Stones are the central monster objects in Metin2: stone-shaped demons that spawn on the map and provide loot and progression when defeated. The Metin of Mindfulness is a special Metin variant. Metin Stones come in three difficulty levels – easy, normal, and hard – and can additionally be manually summoned via summon scrolls. This concept forms the backbone of daily farming in Metin2.
What are Metin Stones?
"Metin Stones" (often called "Metins" in-game) are stone-shaped boss monsters distributed across Metin2's maps or can be summoned through special items – the so-called Metin Stone Summon Scrolls. They stand at the centre of the game concept: the entire objective revolves around destroying Metin Stones and pushing back the darkness they cause.
Each Metin Stone emanates a negative aura that makes surrounding monsters stronger and more aggressive. Destroying the stone weakens this influence and grants rewards such as equipment, materials, or Yang. Metin Stones appear regularly across all level areas and serve as a continuous farming source.
The Three Difficulty Levels of Metin Stones
Metin Stones exist in three variants that differ in strength and reward potential:
| Level | English Designation | German Designation | Note |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Metin Stone (Easy) | Metinstein (leicht) | Beginner-friendly, lower resistance |
| 2 | Metin Stone (Normal) | Metinstein (normal) | Standard variant for mid-level characters |
| 3 | Metin Stone (Hard) | Metinstein (schwer) | Challenging, higher reward potential |
The exact stat values of each level vary depending on the game area and server version. Generally speaking: the harder the Metin Stone, the more effort – but also the better the loot.
Metin of Mindfulness – What's Behind It?
The Metin of Mindfulness (German: Metin der Achtsamkeit, French: Metin de conscience, Turkish: Bilinç Metini) is a special variant among the Metin monster species in Metin2. It carries a thematically unique name that distinguishes it from standard Metin Stones.
Like all Metin Stones, it belongs to the core group of stone demons that challenge players and provide rewards when defeated. Its name hints at a conceptual uniqueness – it stands for a specific Metin category in the game that can be relevant depending on server and event calendar.
Specific drop tables or fixed spawn locations vary by server and are not detailed in the official wiki. Best check your server's event calendar or patch notes if you want to farm the Metin of Mindfulness specifically.
Metin Stone Summon Scrolls: Summoning Metins Yourself
With the Metin Stone Summon Scroll, you can actively call forth Metin Stones instead of waiting for natural spawns. There are a total of 3 different summon scrolls that differ in their strength or the type of Metin Stone summoned.
The summon scroll is particularly useful when you want to farm deliberately without waiting for the respawn timer. The three variants enable flexible planning: choose the scroll that matches your character's level and farming goals. Summon scrolls are available through trading, the warehouse, or special events – check current sources on your server.
The "5 Metin Stone Rings" Event
A special event centred on Metin Stones is the "5 Metin Stone Rings" event. It takes place during the Olympic Games and symbolically represents the Olympic rings logo – the five rings are depicted by spawned Metins on the game map.
Important key points of the event:
- The corresponding area with the five Metin Stone rings must be found yourself – there is no direct map hint.
- The event is divided into different level ranges so players of all levels can participate.
- You'll find the exact start date for your server in the official Metin2 event calendar.
The event offers a great opportunity to farm Metin Stones in a special context whilst earning event-specific rewards. Since the area must be explored yourself, it's worth working with experienced guild members.
Tips for Efficient Metin Stone Farming
Efficient Metin Stone farming requires preparation. The following points will help you get the most out of your farming sessions:
- Adjust difficulty level: Choose Metin Stones that match your current level and equipment. A stone that's too hard takes more time than it's worth; one that's too easy provides less loot.
- Use summon scrolls: Instead of waiting for natural spawns, targeted use of Metin Stone Summon Scrolls is worthwhile, especially during quiet server times.
- Know the area: Some areas have denser Metin Stone spawns than others. Learn the spawn points in your preferred level ranges by heart.
- Party farming: For hard Metin Stones, a small group can be more efficient than solo – damage and drops can be shared.
- Keep events in mind: Events like "5 Metin Stone Rings" offer bonus farming opportunities. Check the event calendar regularly.
- Prepare your inventory: Sufficient healing items and free inventory slots are essential before a farming run so you don't have to stop mid-session.
Metin Stones in Game Context: Lore and Significance
In the world of Metin2, Metin Stones are not just gameplay elements – they are firmly embedded in the lore. They are fragments of the Metin Stone, a powerful demon stone that fell upon the game world and brings chaos and corruption. Players take on the role of warriors who fight these stone shards to save the world.
This thematic embedding explains why Metin Stones are so central to gameplay: they are the literal enemy against which the entire game world fights. The name "Metin of Mindfulness" adds another facet to this mythology – a variant of the stone that symbolises a special form of threat or challenge.
