The Metin of Calamity is a Metinstone in Metin2 – one of the distinctive stone monsters distributed throughout the game world as central farming targets. Metinstones exist in three difficulty levels: easy, normal and hard. Additionally, there are so-called Metinstone Summoning Scrolls that allow you to call forth Metinstones on demand. Anyone who wants to level or farm efficiently in Metin2 cannot avoid Metinstones.
What are Metinstones?
Metinstones (also called "Metins") are stationary monsters that are permanently placed in the game world or can be summoned via scrolls. They stand at fixed positions in various areas and respawn after a certain waiting period. Unlike regular enemies, they do not move – you always fight them at their location.
What makes Metinstones special: they are not simple trash mobs. Defeating a Metinstone requires decent preparation depending on the difficulty level and your current character level and equipment. But it's worth the effort: Metinstones drop materials, equipment and other valuable items.
In many languages of the international Metin2 community, they are known as: Metin Stone Spawner (EN), Metin zkázy (CZ), Metinkő (HU), Kamień Metin (PL) or Piatră metin (RO).
The Three Difficulty Levels at a Glance
Metinstones come in three clearly defined variants. The higher the difficulty level, the stronger the stone – and potentially the better the rewards.
| Type | Designation | Difficulty | Target Audience |
|---|---|---|---|
| Easy | Metinstone (Easy) | Low | Beginners & low level characters |
| Normal | Metinstone (Normal) | Medium | Mid-tier characters |
| Hard | Metinstone (Hard) | High | Advanced players |
The designations "easy", "normal" and "hard" refer to the combat strength of the respective stone. In the community, the hard variants are preferred for farming as they generally provide more valuable drops.
Metin of Calamity – What's Behind It?
The Metin of Calamity is a specific variant among the many Metinstone types in Metin2. The name refers to its thematic appearance: a dark, menacing stone that fits the character lore of the Metin world. Like all Metinstones, it stands at fixed spawn points in the game world and respawns after being defeated.
The Metin of Calamity is part of the larger group of Metinstones and follows the same basic rules: it is stationary, can be fought by groups or solo players (depending on your own strength), and rewards successful fighters with drops.
In other languages it is called: Metin du Malheur (FR), Metin de Dolor (ES), Felaketin Metini (TR), Metin della Sciagura (IT) or Metin van Onheil (NL).
Metinstone Summoning Scroll: Calling Metinstones Yourself
A special mechanic in Metin2 is the Metinstone Summoning Scroll. With it, you can fight Metinstones not only at fixed spawn points but actively summon them – regardless of whether a stone is currently spawned in the world or not.
There are a total of 3 different Metinstone Summoning Scrolls. Each scroll is assigned to a specific Metinstone variant. This makes the scrolls particularly useful for targeted farming: instead of waiting for the next natural respawn, you can spawn the desired stone immediately.
| Summoning Scroll | Associated Variant | Application |
|---|---|---|
| Summoning Scroll 1 | Metinstone Variant 1 | Spawn Metinstone on demand |
| Summoning Scroll 2 | Metinstone Variant 2 | Spawn Metinstone on demand |
| Summoning Scroll 3 | Metinstone Variant 3 | Spawn Metinstone on demand |
Note: The exact assignment of individual scrolls to Metinstone types is currently listed in the official wiki without complete details. Check in-game or with the community which scroll corresponds to which stone.
Farm Metinstones Efficiently – Daily Tips
Metinstones are one of the most reliable farming methods in Metin2. Here are practical tips on how to optimise your farming:
- Adjust difficulty level: Fight stones that you can defeat quickly with your current build. An easy Metinstone you finish in 30 seconds often brings more hourly efficiency than a hard stone you struggle with for several minutes.
- Know spawn points: Learn the fixed spawn positions on individual maps by heart. This way you avoid long searches and can plan a farming route.
- Use summoning scrolls: If you own a Metinstone Summoning Scroll, spawn the stone directly – ideal during quiet moments when natural spawn points are empty or occupied by other players.
- Group farming: For hard Metinstones, it's worthwhile to farm with a small group. Shared drops and faster defeat time make it more efficient.
- Prepare buffs: Make sure your character is buffed before farming – whether through your own abilities, potions or group buffs from other classes.
- Map rotation: Don't always farm on the same map. Switch between available areas to make optimal use of stone respawn times.
Metinstones and Their Place in Metin2 Gameplay
Metinstones are not a random element in Metin2 – they are a fundamental part of the game structure. The entire levelling and farming system revolves largely around regularly defeating Metinstones.
For newcomers, Metinstones are the first encounter with a "boss-like" enemy: stationary, noticeably stronger than regular mobs, but with a clear reward promise. For experienced players, hard Metinstones and specific types like the Metin of Calamity are a regular farming target in search of valuable drop items.
Combined with the Metinstone Summoning Scrolls, the system also offers an active component: you don't have to passively wait for respawns, but can control your farming run yourself. This makes Metinstones a flexible and effective tool – whether you're currently levelling, gathering materials or simply testing your combat strength.
