DragonSword Awakening Items

DragonSword Awakening makes its highly anticipated has debuted on July 23rd! If you are a fan of anime-style mobile games, this title should look familiar; in fact, DSA is a brand-new ARPG for PC, reimagined from the original mobile DragonSword.

DragonSword Awakening not only ditches the iconic yet flawed gacha mechanics but also expands upon the original world-building to offer richer gameplay. However, this shift means your gold reserves will deplete much faster during the early game.

If you are currently playing DSA and struggling with this issue, don't worry, we've put together a reliable gold-farming guide to help you smoothly transition into the endgame!

How to farm DragonSword Awakening gold?

Upgrading gear and heroes, or acquiring essential combat consumables, in DragonSword Awakening requires gold (and sometimes other materials). Fortunately, there are plenty of ways to earn it.

Focus on completing quests

Like most ARPGs, DragonSword Awakening features a dedicated main storyline. As you progress, you'll unlock new regions, systems, and quests, all of which offer various rewards, including gold.

Once you've made significant headway in the main story and powered up your starting heroes, you can begin tackling other types of quests.

These include side quests scattered across the regions unlocked via the main story, which may feature challenging World Bosses, as well as special Hero Quests.

As the universal currency, DragonSword Awakening gold is also a common reward for these quests. Additionally, keep an eye out for region rewards like Skill Scrolls (used to upgrade hero abilities) and Hero Quests that grant Fate's Invitation Tickets for recruiting new heroes.

Farm specific dungeons

Once your character reaches certain level milestones, you'll unlock the dungeon system. Different dungeons in DragonSword Awakening feature unique enemies and yield different primary resources.

If you want to accumulate gold quickly in the early game, Dragon Worshipper Ruins is your best bet. This dungeon unlocks at level 10, and a single successful run can net you tens of thousands of gold.

Later on, as you complete more quests and dungeons and your character hits level 60, you can unlock and move on to Ruined Temple. This dungeon is located within Eroded Underground Cemetery in Orbis Valley.

To clear these dungeons or potential boss battles more quickly, it is best to level up all heroes in your squad to at least the minimum requirement, while aiming for the highest possible level for your core heroes.

Acquiring and selling materials

Aside from special items like Fate's Invitation Tickets, exploring regions and defeating ordinary enemies will yield common materials of lower rarity and limited utility. Rather than letting them clutter your inventory, sell them for DSA gold.

During the early game, prioritize exploring safer maps like Verdant Steppes and Orbis, and devise an efficient clearing route based on the material yields of specific locations.

As your team grows stronger, you can, much like switching dungeons, shift your daily clearing activities to more dangerous regions to earn more gold.

How to improve gold farming efficiency?

To master farming and outpace others in earning DragonSword Awakening gold, you need to leverage various game mechanics effectively.

Choosing the right heroes

A key feature of DragonSword Awakening is its blend of ARPG elements and anime-style mobile gaming, all set within an open-world exploration framework.

Consequently, the game eschews traditional class systems and gacha-style RNG for unlocking playable characters, introducing Fate's Invitation Tickets instead.

While these tickets can be earned by completing Hero Quests, the quests are challenging and the supply of tickets is finite; therefore, you should prioritize acquiring heroes with high combat power early on.

Furthermore, as the title suggests, you can further empower your heroes through a special Awakening process. Each hero has six Awakening levels, with each level granting unique stat bonuses.

However, Stigma Awakened Stones required for Awakening are quite rare, so it is best to prioritize Awakening your main DPS heroes before considering others.

Activating all Eona's Legacy

The open world of DragonSword Awakening comprises several regions, each with a unique layout and various scattered locations.

Farming gold inevitably requires traveling between quest sites and dungeons; unlocking the fast-travel function will significantly boost your farming efficiency.

In DragonSword Awakening, fast-travel points appear on the map as towers collectively known as Eona's Legacy. To activate them, you must solve the specific Eona's Legacy puzzle associated with that map.

Most of these puzzles are straightforward; some simply require you to interact with a designated NPC. The first puzzle quest is located in Meadow of Beginnings and is part of the main storyline; completing it will give you a clear understanding of the importance of Eona's Legacy.

Equip the right gear and reforge it regularly

In DragonSword Awakening, gear isn't obtained as random drops; instead, you must gather various crafting materials and forge the items at Blacksmith.

Generating plenty of gold requires strong combat power. This depends not only on your heroes' skills and levels but also on the gear you equip them with.

Every hero in DragonSword Awakening has an elemental affinity, as does the gear itself. Matching these elements is crucial for optimal performance - elemental alignment yields the best results.

Additionally, among all gear slots, chest armor and leg armor provide the most significant stat bonuses, so prioritize crafting these items whenever your materials allow.

To add depth to the gameplay, gear in DragonSword Awakening features secondary stats that can be rerolled using Blacksmith's reforge function.

However, since the outcome of each roll is random, it is best not to obsess over getting the perfect stats, doing so can quickly deplete your resources.

We hope this guide helps you earn enough gold to get a strong start in DragonSword Awakening. Remember, gold remains vital even in the endgame, so don't stop farming!
