Malachite Gems are very rare gems that are used for level 10* enchantments. Here are some ways to get them:
- Accept the quest The Horror of High Hall from Beatrice and complete it, they will reward you with 2 Malachite gems. If you mindread her as soon as possible in-middle of taking the quest, then ask about the Zagan, after the quest you will get 4 gems instead of 2!
- Accept Delicate Affairs quest from Radcliff, and trade the gem you find to the two goblins for a pair of Malachite Gems. --> but you will not be able to upgrade your tower by doing so!!
- Buy them from Lamotte in the first chapter of the game. Mindread him first and get them for 1500g each instead of 2000g.
- One Malachite Gem can be obtained from the three sleepers in the first chapter of the game in Broken Valley. To awaken all three you will need 1 Beer, 1 Big Red apple, and 1 Health Potion.
- One is at the goblin Charlie (after you mindread him) in a small box in the tree house in a small island in Orobas Fjords. --> do not open the chest before to mindread him!! (Notice: Chest appears AFTER the mindread.)
- READ AND SAVE BEFORE DOING, BUG PROBLEM: North west from Stone's Flying Fortress. The road on the riverbank, you will get a cut-scene with a man named Carleton. He's a merchant, and has One Malachite GEM! It is the road that stretches from the Depleted Ore Mine. Problem is: when he talks to you, do NOT continue the conversation! press the trade button at once! if not, you can't sell or buy from him. --> this merchant has the MAXOS MALLET, it cost more than 16.000 but is an amazing weapon in the DKS game!
- Save before mining each Malachite Vein. Load until you find a Malachite Gem.
- Flames of Vengeance: Horace in Aleroth has 3 Malachite Gems (i read his mind, and then started the trade). Agnes also gives one malachite gem, just mindread her, confront her and intimidate her.
- Lastly, you can choose to save and reload for malachite gems for any quest rewards which offer gems as rewards, like main quests. Bear in mind this may cost time.
- A malachite vein can contain between 0 and 4 malachite gems, 3 is verified to have a chance of dropping but I wouldn't reccomand trying to get 3 or 4 gems because you have about 1/1.000.000 chance of winning the big loot ! :)
*NB. Any level of the Healing Aura enchantments will also consume a malachite gem! This is the exception to the rule that malachite gems are only used in level 10 enchantments.
