Hello!
So, I've been looking around and I haven't been able to find anything about how you actually get essences. I know that there's different types and general information about them, but I don't actually know how you get/find essences?

So here are the initial questions I have to ask about essences because I can't find anything about them:
1) Do you get essences as gifts/rewards after completing missions or quests?
2) Do you find/buy essences?
3) Where do you buy essences (if you can) and if so, how much does it cost?

Thank you so much for any information on this!

well... I hope this answers your questions...

1) Nope! I'll explain how you get them at the bottom of the page.

2) Yes!You can buy or find them, though finding them is rare. Again, I'll explain.

3)You can either buy them on the broker or the diamond shop. Same here, to be explained.

How to get essences:

1. Finding Essences

This is the cheapest way to get essences, but it takes a long time. You can find essences after defeating a wild pet in battle, or by nurturing sylestis. However, the chance of finding an essence doing either of these things is extremely rare.

2. Buying Essences

This is the fastest, but more expensive way to get essences. You can either buy them on the broker or diamond shop, the prices are...

Broker- the prices are always different. I find that, for Regular Essences, it's abut 50kg each. For Enhanced Essences... they're much more expensive. Mystical Essences are usually in the millions.

Diamond Shop- This is undoubtedly the most expensive method of getting essences. Regular Essences are 250 diamonds each, Enhanced Essences are 750 diamonds each, and Mystical Essences are 1000 diamonds each.

3. Winning Essences

In Jinxie's Jamboree, if you get all 3 staves, you will be given a minigame where you can (although not often) find essences. Like method 1, this is not fast or easy, but it's definitely less expensive than buying them.

^^^ If there are any that I got wrong or missed, please correct.

Pegacorn hit most of the ways to get essences, but there are a couple more ways:

First, when you go on missions you receive satchels you can open. There is a very small chance of finding an essence inside (I think I've gotten 2 or 3 that way in a little over 2 years)

Also, by participating in official games run by the admins, you can sometimes win essences.

Thank you both for the information!
I don't think I'll be buying from the shops any time soon, so I'll stick to saving designs on the generator. Thanks, though xx
