As soon as Fields of Mistria 1.0 landed I rushed to shove gifts into my lovers’ faces and drag them on dates to hustle my way to the coveted 10 heart threshold for marriage, only to find out that, woof, crafting an engagement ring is a real investment! The material cost isn’t actually that steep if you’ve already played a lot, but it does require you to get to the final level of the mines. I’d sort of neglected unlocking those final seals while totally engrossed in friendship grinding, which was apparently the wrong thing to do.
How to craft an engagement ring
To craft an engagement ring, you have to reach level 100 in the mines to unlock additional recipes for The Dragon Forge on level 90. After you make a Dragon-Forged Core, you can craft an engagement ring at a normal blacksmithing station.
Engagement ring recipe:
- 2 Diamonds
- 4 Mistril ingots
- 4 Gold ingots
- 1 Dragon-Forged Core (craft at The Dragon Forge on mines level 90)
- 5 Monster core
- 1 Mistril ingot
- 1 Pink diamond
- 1 Ancient firefly
- 1 Medium essence stone
Engagement ring materials shortcuts
You can’t just throw down the cash for an engagement ring outright, but you can pay your way to avoid some of the material grinding if you’re ore poor but have tons of tesserae.
