Finding And Using A Gem Forge

While researching, the Alchemist discovered that the Ancients once used gemstones as a natural power source for augmentation. The gems originated below the earth and have mysterious properties that allow them to cling to surrounding energies.

To harness the power of a gemstone, you will first need to know the location of a Gem Forge. Thankfully, the Alchemist knows where to look.

Reach the location marked on your map to proceed.

You've reached the location of the Gem Forge, but there are enemies nearby. Defeat the enemies inside the Gem Forge before taking a look around!

You defeated the enemies inside the Gem Forge and discovered that they were holding onto a resource called "Archaic Essence I".

While the Gem Forge is still intact, the rest of the little sanctum is ransacked. Perhaps the Fell came here to claim the Archaic Essence I used in weapon augmentation for themselves.

Follow the footsteps of the Fell and find out where they took the stashed energy resource!

The Fell took the Archaic Essence I into a winding, enshrouded cave. What purpose are they after?

Explore the depths of the Shroud Lair to proceed! Consider gathering more Archaic Essence I as you go forth to reclaim it from the Shroud!

The heart of the Shroud Lair is haunted by a Fell Banshee. The Shroud will continue to spread here and steal resources to fuel their own brood unless the Banshee is destroyed!

Defeat the Fell Banshee and claim her loot!

You've defeated the Fell Banshee and found a weapon gem!

Take your newly acquired gem, a suitable weapon, and the Archaic Essence I back to the Gem Forge. Use these components to slot a gem into a weapon to empower it!
