How to Obtain Boon Stones in Odin: Valhalla Rising

In Odin: Valhalla Rising, progression isn't just about leveling up or collecting loot-it's about refining and empowering your gear through enchantments. These enchantments require a crucial material known as Boon Stones, and without them, enhancing your weapons, armor, or accessories is impossible.

If you're looking to upgrade your equipment and gain an edge in both PvE and PvP content, you'll need a steady supply of the correct Boon Stones. This guide breaks down the types of Boon Stones, how they're used, and where you can reliably gather them.

What Are Boon Stones?

Boon Stones are special enhancement materials used to enchant different categories of gear. Each type of gear has a corresponding Boon Stone, and you'll need the right kind for the right piece of equipment.

Here's a breakdown of the three main types:

    Weapon Boon Stone

        Used to enchant all weapon types. Whether you're wielding a sword, bow, or staff, this stone is required to increase its power and effectiveness.

    Armor Boon Stone

        Used for helmets, chest plates, gloves, boots, and cloaks. If it's wearable body gear, this is the enhancement material you'll need.

    Accessory Boon Stone

        Used to enhance rings, necklaces, belts, and other wearable accessories.

No matter the gear tier-common or legendary-each piece requires the matching Boon Stone for its type. Without the proper Boon Stone, your enchanting attempt won't proceed.

Where to Find Boon Stones

Unlike basic crafting materials, Boon Stones are relatively rare and valuable. Fortunately, there are multiple sources to gather them, each with its own pros and cons depending on your playstyle and time investment.

1. Dungeons: The Primary Source for Boon Stones

Dungeon crawling remains one of the most efficient and consistent ways to obtain Boon Stones.

    Standard Dungeons

        These offer basic Boon Stones as part of the loot table. Whether you're soloing or joining a group, many dungeons drop these as rewards for boss kills or chest unlocks.

    Elite and High-Difficulty Dungeons

        For a chance at rarer, more powerful versions like Golden Boon Stones, you'll need to step up the challenge. These advanced dungeons often require better gear and coordination, but offer much more valuable enchantment materials in return.

    Weekly Dungeon Events

        Watch for limited-time dungeon events that increase drop rates or guarantee certain Boon Stones. These events are great opportunities to stockpile enhancement items quickly.

Tip: Dungeon drop rates vary, so prioritize the ones most likely to yield the type of Boon Stone you're currently lacking.

2. Shop: A Daily Guaranteed Source

If you want a reliable and easy way to obtain Boon Stones without relying on RNG from dungeon drops, the in-game shop offers a solution.

    Navigate to the General Offers Tab

        Within the Shop menu, head to the General Offers section. This area includes growth materials, which feature common Boon Stones available for direct purchase.

    Server-Wide Limits

        Be aware that Boon Stones sold in the shop often have a daily or weekly purchase limit per server. If you're playing on a high-traffic server, it's best to check early in the day to ensure availability.

    Currency Costs

        Depending on the type and rarity of the Boon Stone, you may need premium currency or gold. Some lower-tier Boon Stones are available for regular in-game gold, making them accessible even for free-to-play players.

While you won't typically find rare or golden versions in the shop (except during special events), this method ensures a consistent trickle of materials necessary for lower-tier enchanting.

Maximizing Your Boon Stone Farming

To ensure you always have the Boon Stones you need, follow these farming strategies:

1. Run Daily Dungeons

Make dungeon runs part of your daily routine. Even if you don't get golden Boon Stones every time, you'll steadily accumulate the standard versions, which are still vital for gear progression.

2. Coordinate with Guilds

Guilds often have shared dungeon goals or run schedules. Join a party to tackle elite dungeons more efficiently, boosting your odds of getting rarer Boon Stones in each session.

3. Watch for Shop Restocks

Check the in-game shop regularly. Developers often restock and rotate growth items, so keep an eye on the General Offers tab and snag Boon Stones before the daily quota is gone.

4. Participate in Events

Seasonal or weekly events sometimes increase drop rates or give Boon Stones as participation rewards. These are fantastic opportunities to gain enhancement items without spending currency.

What Are Golden Boon Stones?

While the guide above mostly covers standard Boon Stones, there's a premium tier known as Golden Boon Stones. These are used for high-tier gear upgrades and offer improved enchanting success rates or unlock advanced enchantment tiers.

    How to Get Golden Boon Stones

        Found primarily in high-difficulty dungeons

        Occasionally offered in limited-time shop bundles

        May appear as rewards during special game events or seasonal content drops

These stones are not only rarer but also more valuable, often hoarded by players preparing for top-tier PvP or PvE challenges.

Final Thoughts

Enchanting in Odin: Valhalla Rising is an essential part of enhancing your power, and Boon Stones are at the heart of this system. By knowing where to get them-and how to use them strategically-you can keep your gear in top shape and ensure you're always ready for whatever threats await on the battlefield.

Make it a habit to run dungeons, monitor the shop, buy Valhalla Rising Diamonds, and stay event-aware, and you'll never find yourself short on the Boon Stones you need.
