Dragon Stone Alchemy

General Information

UI of Dragon Stone Alchemy

• The Dragon Stone Alchemy (DSA) was introduced first in version 13.3
• The Mythic class was added in version 19.0
• The Amethyst dragon stone was added in version 23.2

• Can be used from level 1, but can be actively produced from level 30.
• Using the DSA strengthens your character. You can gear up to 2 sets of dragon stones.
• Each set consists of 7 different dragon stones, each their own bonuses.
• Every dragon stone is placed in the inventory of the DSA instead of the regular inventory (see right).
• You can open the inventory by pressing O, or pressing the button in your inventory or the Expand Window button between the "4" and "F1" shortcuts.

• When you reach level 30, the quest Arrival of the Dragon Stone Shards automatically unlocks.
• The
  Alchemist
  asks you to bring 10 Dragon Stone Shards. These shards can be looted from all monsters within your level range.
• After you brought him 10 shards, he will convert it to 1 Cor Draconis (Rough). You can repeat this 4 more times.
• You can do this quest 5 times a day per character, though it is named as Power of the Dragon Eye. The quest resets at 4:00 AM.

• From level 110, an additional similar quest is unlocked: Dragon Stone Shards+?!.
• Collect Dragon Stone Shard+ in Plateau of Illusions.
• Every 10 shards will turn it to a Cor Draconis (Rough) and Cor Daemonis (Rough). You can do this 5 times a day aswell.
• This quest can be activated from the quest menu.

• Notes:

• The Dragon Stone Shards (+) have a 24 hour timer upon dropping. They will vanish if they are not being used.
• The regular shard cannot be traded while the + can.
• Only shards that have been dropped at the same time can be stacked.
• When a shard is dropped from a monster, your name will not disappear until the shard is vanished.
• The Cor Draconis cannot be traded.

• Activating 6 or more dragon stones will enable a DSS Set Effect.
• Every dragon stone has a 24 hour time duration that only runs upon activating.

Time extension

• You are able to extend the time limit on dragon stones.
• Buy the Tongs of Time from Alchemist.
• Move the tongs to an unused dragon stone.
• It will open up a dialog asking you if you really want to use it on that dragon stone.
• When confirmed, the dragon stone is gone and you receive a Time Elixir (S). Extraction can fail though.
• The percentage is random and can be 5 to 100%, depending on the class the tongs was used on.
• Move the elixir to the equipped dragon stone you want to extend time on, it will refill the time duration based on the percentage of the elixir.

• For example: an elixir with 50% time charging will add 12 hours to a dragon stone.

• There are other time elixirs:

• Time Elixir (M)
• Time Elixir (L)

• The elixirs last 24 hours upon receiving.

Removing dragon stones
