Gems
Needs to be updated/validated against osmw
Ever see a player taking just 1 damage from a monster while you're taking hundreds or thousands? Their secret is gems. Gems boost resistance (or other stats) depending on the type and how they are used.
Uses of Gems
- Increase pet intimacy
- Craft (concoct) Shapeshift potions
- Earn skill exp (max 4,000 per skill)
- Boost character resistance
How to Acquire Gems
- In-game Events
- Guild War victories
- Monster drops (e.g. Hurricane, Drow Lord)
- Worn Deity
- Guild (Attolment) Quest
- MythWar Online Item Mall
- Mining (using gem sack + pickaxe)
- Lottery
- Miner fights
Mining Details
- Mines at Demon Square (390, 630) and Desert City (102, 641)
- Must have Gem Sack and Pickaxe
- Mining continues passively (offline) while pickaxe is in use
- Use the pickaxe to stop mining
- Visit the Mine Manager NPC to identify your gems (turn in gem sack)
- Fighting Miner has a chance to drop Grade-3 gems
Gem Combination & Conversion
- Use Gem Master (Blyton 76, 520) and Gem Rookie (85, 530) to combine gems
- Only same grade + same type gems can be combined → yields a higher grade of that type
- Failing a combination: you lose one gem but recover the other
- Stardust / Perfect Stardust can increase your success rate
- Max gem grade = G-11
Conversion to Diamonds
- Gems can be converted irreversibly into Diamonds via Gem Converter (Blyton 101, 548)
- Diamonds don’t increase resistance; they boost stats: Berserk, Critical, etc.
| Gem Type | Diamond After Conversion |
|---|---|
| Black → Black Diamond | Pierce Rate or Damage |
| Emerald → Green Diamond | Combo Rate or Hit |
| Moonstone → Silver Diamond | Counter Rate or Damage |
| Ruby → Red Diamond | Critical Rate or Damage |
| Sapphire → Blue Diamond | Berserk Rate or Damage |
| Phantasm → Gold Diamond | Dodge Rate |
| Purple → Purple Diamond | Speed |
| Glimmering → Yellow Diamond | Hit Rate |
Casting Gems / Diamonds into Equipment
- You can infuse up to 3 gems into equipment (helmet, armour, weapon, shoes, etc.)
- If you cast a higher-grade gem into equipment that already has gems, it replaces the lowest one
- Equipment that is infused with essence or reagent can not accept gem casting
- Resistances on equipment from Monster or Boxes can not be replaced
