What Life Stones exist and where to get them

Life Stones drop from mobs and some RBs. There are 4 types:

• Life Stone No Grade – regular stones. Only char-stat bonuses: atk, def, physical crit chance, accuracy, evasion, MP, HP, CP and their regen.
• Life Stone Mid Grade – besides stats, can give chance skills. These can proc when you attack or take dmg. Can be various self buffs or enemy debuffs.
• Life Stone High Grade – besides stats can give chance skills, active or passive skills (nukes, buffs, MP/HP restore, Celestial, etc.). The weapon also gets a glow.
• Life Stone Top Grade – top quality. Raise stats and give various chance / active / passive skills. Can also add +1 STR, CON, INT, MEN. Brighter weapon glow.

There are also stones of different levels: level 46, 49, 52, 55, 58, 61, 64, 67, 70, 76, 80. This level does not decide which skill lvl you get, but there are limits on where you can use them. For example, a lvl 46 LS cannot go into S-Grade weapons, but a lvl 76 Life Stone can go into C-Grade. Also, char lvl cannot be lower than the stone you want to use.

Where to insert and remove LS, plus important rules

You can insert LS into weapons and jewelry at the blacksmith in any town except Gludin Village.

Dialog window

Weapon augment window

Talk to the blacksmith and in the dialog pick “Augment Item“. Then you can read the basic Life Stone info and pick “Start Augmenting“. A window opens for the insert. You need:

• The weapon itself (you can augment enchanted and attributed weapons, but not ones that already have LS).
• A Life Stone whose level is not below the weapon’s.
• Gemstones: for C-grade and B-grade weapons – Gemstone D; for A-grade and S-grade – Gemstone C; for S 80-84 grade you need Gemstone B.

After all components are in, click Augment and check the result.

Important! Augment on the char who will use the weapon, because it cannot be traded, sold, or dropped.

You can get different upgrade types, shown by color

• Yellow  (worst) — stat bonuses (1 to 4).
• Blue  (average) — stat bonuses, chance skill.
• Purple  (good) — stat bonuses and a chance skill or an active skill.
• Red (best) — raise stats, plus various chance / active / passive skills.

If you don’t like the result, you can remove the LS and insert another. In the blacksmith dialog pick “Restore item to original state“, the upgrade is removed, and you can do it again.

Jewelry augment

You can also put LS into jewelry, except epics. That can give a Passive skill, some extra stats, extra attack attribute, plus resist to attributes, stun, poison, bleed, mental attacks, etc.

Jewelry needs special LS – Accessory Life Stone. Craft them at the blacksmith from 5 Life Stone. You can’t make a higher-grade stone, only regular. Insert and remove the same way as weapons.
