How to Get These Materials
Now that you know what materials are needed, let’s go over where and how you get these materials.
The Gemstones (The First Materials Listed for Manos Clothes and Processing Stones).
These materials are all pretty much made in a similar manner, which I call tier-three processing. You make them by processing the corresponding tier two material with metal solvent or gem polisher. Note that you need to have specific processing knowledge to do this type of processing (shaking: skilled and heating: skilled). You can read about how to get the processing knowledge in my processing guide.
The processing method for each material is:
- Blood Ruby – Shake together 3x gem polisher with 7x Resplendent Ruby
- Forest Emerald – Shake together 3x gem polisher with 7x Resplendent Emeralds
- Gold Topaz – Shake together 3x gem polisher with 7x Resplendent Topaz
- Indigo’s Lapis Lazuli – Shake together 3x gem polisher with 7x Resplendent Lapiz Lazuli
- Ocean Sapphire – Shake together 3x gem polisher with 7x Resplendent Sapphire
- Moonlight Opal – Heat together 1x metal solvent with 3x Brilliant Opal
- Pure Gold Crystal – Heat together 3x gold ingot with 1x metal solvent.
- Star Diamond – Shake together 3x gem polisher with 7x Resplendent Diamond
Here are instructions on making metal solvent and gem polisher. To get resplendent gemstones you need to process rough gemstones by first grinding them and then grind the regular gemstones again to turn them into resplendent gemstones. You should need about 8 rough gemstones on average for each resplendent gemstone you need.
The Pure Crystals
Like the gemstones, the pure crystals are all pretty much made in the same manner. You make them by processing the corresponding tier-two material with metal solvent. Note that you need to have specific processing knowledge to do this type of processing (heating: skilled). You can read about how to get the processing knowledge in my processing guide.
- Pure Gold Crystal – Heat together 2x gold crystal with 1x metal solvent.
- Pure Titanium Crystal – Heat together 3x titanium ingots with 2x metal solvent.
- Pure Vanadium Crystal – Heat together 3x vanadium ingots with 2x metal solvent.

Fire Horn
The fire horn is a rare drop from butchering/tanning wild animals. It can also be received as a reward for hunting.
Fundamentals of Cooking
To get Fundamentals of Cooking you need to complete a daily cooking quest. One such is given by Heidi in Heidel called [Repeat] Heidi’s Fundamentals of Cooking. The goal of the quest is to make a Professional Satisfying Dinner Meal Pack. To do so you need to pack together 30x Meat Pie, 30x Tea with Fine Scent and 20x Steak.

You can make Krogdalo’s Origin Stone by mixing together 25 x Swaying Wind Shards and 25 x Rumbling Earth Shards with simple alchemy. There is also a very small chance of it dropping from Gyfin.
Magical Shards
The best way to get magical shards is to process yellow grade black magic crystals (e.g Black Magic Crystal – Vigor). Each crystal will give you 1 magical shard when you heat it via processing (“L” button on PC). Do not grind them as that only gives some black stone powder.
Manos Stones
Manos stones are the easiest of this lot as you can simply buy them from a jeweler NPC in any city in Black Desert Online. Each Manos stone costs 5.000.000 silver.
Metal Solvent
Here are instructions on making metal solvent
Sunset Dyed Wool and Scorched Fragment
You can get Sunset Dyed Wool and Scorched Fragment by completing daily quests at Heidel’s General Goods Vendor Lara. Lara request that you make 100 pieces of dough and give it to her, the type of dough asked for can change between days. This is best done by purchasing the flour of the central marketplace, mineral water from a tavern vendor and then shake it together. Once you give the dough to Lara you can choose either a single Sunset Dyed Wool or a single Scorched Fragment as the reward.
You can also exchange Shiny Golden Seal [Imperial Cusine] x100 for a single sunset dyed wool and Shiny Golden Seal [Imperial Alchemy] x100 for a single Scorched Fragment.
Tear of the Great Ocean
To get a Tear of the Great Ocean you need to complete the repeatable daily quest [Life Skill Mastery] Fisherman and the Sea given by Abelin in Velia. Abelin will ask you to catch a couple of rare fish (Grunt and Moray for example). Once completed you will get two Tear of the Great Ocean.
Twilight Red Coral
To get Twilight Red Corals you first need to get red corals. You can do this by harvesting them directly from the bottom of the sea, by using a how on red coral gathering nodes. You can also grind together 10 corals (uncolored) and a single ruby to get red corals.
You then need to process together three red corals with a resplendent ruby. This step requires the (Heating: Beginner) knowledge.
You can also heat red coral earrings and red coral rings to get Twilight Red Corals.
Where to Craft the Manos Gear
Once you have all the materials you need to use the Manufacturing option in the processing window, place the materials in their boxes and press the begin button. Soon you should have your very own Manos life skilling tool.
So that’s all it for this instruction on making Manos gear. If you found this useful then please share it with your friends and allies in BDO. Also, feel free to check out my other Black Desert Online guides.
You can also get Manos Stones at Crows Nest for 20 sea coins.
Also at Lema island, it’s a bit closer to the mainland
