WHERE & HOW TO FARM

Where to farm

Blue-laurel chamber choices across escape regions when the specific displayed reward is Gemstones; spend them at the House Contractor.

Gemstones are one possible blue-laurel chamber reward. The laurel signals a reward family, not a guaranteed Gemstone drop, so inspect the individual door icon. Collect them when a planned Contractor job is your next account goal, and keep a reserve before trading them upward at the Broker.

GET STARTED

How to farm

Before you go

  • Begin an escape attempt.
  • Identify a House Contractor work order or unlock you intend to buy.
  • Inspect chamber reward icons before choosing a door.
  1. At a chamber fork, look for the specific Gemstones reward icon.
  2. Choose that door when collecting Gemstones supports your current Contractor plan.
  3. Clear the encounter and collect the Gemstones reward.
  4. Check later forks in the same attempt for another displayed Gemstones reward.
  5. Return to the House and review the Contractor’s available jobs.
  6. Spend the collected Gemstones on the selected work order, then update your target.

Farming tips

  • Blue-laurel rooms can show Darkness or Keys instead; do not treat the laurel itself as a Gemstone guarantee.
  • The Fated List Service costs 20 Gemstones, so reserve that amount if unlocking prophecies is your goal.

Repeat, collect and use

Repeatable across escape attempts, but each chamber’s reward selection is variable.

Common mistakes

  • Choosing every blue-laurel door automatically; confirm the individual reward icon.
  • Spending the Gemstones reserved for a planned work order on a Broker trade; compare your near-term goals first.
  • Expecting every region to offer Gemstones; keep choosing from the rewards actually shown.

When to stop or switch

Stop targeting Gemstones once you can afford the intended job; switch to the next resource needed for progression.
