Quick Links
When first starting your adventure inV Rising,you will encounter the materialgem dust, and it might elude some players early on when trying to find out what exactly it is or how to obtain it. Gem dust is a fairly easy resource to find early on as it will only require players to have gems and a grinder to grind them all down.
Finding Gems
To start grinding gems down to dust, you will first need to find some of them in the world. There are a bunch of different ways you can obtain crude, regular, or flawless gems in the world ofV Rising. You can buy gems fromGem Vendors, or they can drop from defeated enemies and V Blood Carriers. Gems can also be obtained from chests, fishing, or salvaging jewels. There are also some variations ofstone nodeswith gems jutting out of them, break these down and you will get a nice variety of gems that drop when it has been destroyed.
Once you’ve gathered some gems, you’ll want to make sure you have a grinder ready to go so that you’re able to break them down. The early game grinder will work just fine if it is the only one you have.
Break Down Gems
Gem dust will require 1 gem for 1 gem dust, so if you need12 gem dust, you will need12 gemsto break down. Just slot the gems into the grinder’s inventory and wait a few seconds for it to do the rest for you! It’s as easy as that. Players can also break down their unused jewels withThe Devourerstation for gem dust and the gem that was used for the jewel slot.
For example, if you were to give The Devourer chest aTier 2 Blood Jewel,you would receive aregular rubyand8 gem dust. Or if you slotted in aTier 1 Illusion Jewelinstead, you will get acrude miststoneand4 gem dust. So there are some neat and useful ways to get rid of old gear to go towards new and more useful crafts.
