is 3 osmium essences and bars achievable?

[fiery imp]

hi guys, I've been playing 3 years in xbox and 3 years from beginning in steam but never once I got osmium. is this achievable? seems like we can obtain from museum gift, but it's still a long way from me because I've only donated 230 ish times.
is there any other way to get osmium during this update? thank you!

You can sometimes obtain osmium from meteorites. However osmimum kelp is only obtainable from museum

It’s possible as a rare drop to get osmium ore from crates and barrels that you break in the mines.

There’s also a chance to get osmium ore from a meteor, which is also quite rare.

Otherwise, the museum reward at 275 is the only reliable way to get ore and kelp.

btw, is the reward enough to make 3 essence and 3 bars? thank you! I've never got the meteorite yet 😅😭

[molten tinsel]

It’s 10 of each, so you do need the slime of replication which is a reward for the rare gem altar.

I replicated some extra ore and kelp so I’d have some lying around, used the rest to make one essence and one bar, then replicated them

oh okay.. I've never got red beryl at all (not even for donation yet) and still so far (230) from 275 donations 🥲🥲 kindly wish me luck, or do you have any tips? and tysm!

My best suggestion would be to mine mystery geodes and open those, hopefully then you’ll have all the gems you need.

For museum: diving for mysterious coffers is a good way to get lots of artifacts. I usually get a good amount of fossils that way too.

Good luck!

For red beryl, apparently they drop from both earth nodes & mystery geodes, so I targeted the earth mine for mine

+1 for red beryl in the earth geodes. I also found diamond in water geodes

Second the beryl from earth mine. I'm hunting for the diamond. Hoping it's in the water one lol

[feral sapphire]

What level of the earth mine? Or is it just luck?

[jagged sundial]

it's luck, you just need to get earth geodes - I usually go either 5/15/25 for a quick stop or run a 30-40 if i feel like it

(quick stop as in - it will still take time, but at least you can skip straight to the level)

also, if you haven't yet, do enchant your pickaxe with rare drop and extra drop

aside from labradorite- everything else can drop from geodes. you'll need water, earth, and wind geodes. but lab is in purple nodes in all the mines so while geode farming, you have a chance in all 3.

it was confirmed by Bene that all gems are active in game and can be found.

I’ve got diamond from gem nodes in wind

[modest tundra]

I was at least above 25

[modest tundra]

Ah nice. I'll go for that one then
