The developer Netmarble has introduced a new Battlefield of Chaos game mode that will help you farm Gems easily. There are five different areas where you can fight different boss battles to earn Gems.

Each of these areas unlocks when the timer reaches zero:

  • Fortress of Blazing Fire (for Red Gems)
  • Battlefield of Dawn (for Blue Gems)
  • Barren Wilderness (for Yellow Gems)
  • Battlefield of the Dead (for Green Gems)
  • Tyrian Ruins (for Purple Gems)

Each boss battle in these different areas has three Battle Missions you must complete, which makes the challenges somewhat harder.

When you start collecting Gems, you can see them in the new inventory called Gems. Do note that when you Equip Gems, you cannot take a Gem out from a particular color slot. You can only replace it with another Gem, which will destroy the previous one.

When you equip a gem of any color, it will show you the growth that gives you battle power. If you want to place more than one Crystal of the same color, you must unlock one tier from each color to unlock the next slot.
