There are some additional methods for earning Nagadus Emerald other than fighting bosses, though these aren't always as reliable.

Daily Commissions

Every day, players are awarded four daily commissions by the Adventurers' Guild. Once all four are finished, they can visit any branch to acquire additional bonuses from Katheryne.

These bonuses usually consist of elemental gem Slivers. Regrettably, the specific Slivers received are chosen randomly and are of the lowest quality. However, players should still prioritize completing their daily commissions for the Primogems, making the elemental Slivers an added free perk.

Crafting

By heading over to and using a crafting bench, players can upgrade lower-quality gems into higher quality levels. This works at a 3:1 ratio, as follows:

Ingredients

3x Sliver

Conversion

Here is the revised content:

To upgrade lower-level gems and change their elements, players can utilize a crafting bench. In addition to improving gem quality, the crafting bench enables the conversion of gems from one element to another. To perform this conversion, players must acquire Dust of Azoth, which is obtainable through Paimon's Bargains.

The following amount of Dust of Azoth is required to convert gems of each level to a different element:

Nagadus Emerald can be created from Varunada Lazurite, Vajrada Amethyst, Vayuda Turquoise, Shivada Jade, Prithiva Topaz, or Agnidus Agate.

Event Rewards

The ultimate approach to acquire elemental gems involves taking part in time-limited events. These events often provide a reward shop or direct rewards upon successfully completing specific challenges within the given timeframe.

Often, these event rewards can include limited quantities of elemental gems.
