Xenoblade Chronicles 3 updates all the classic hallmarks of the JRPG genre to the modern age with decades of experience. By building on the countless evolutions of the format, the game introduces tons of interesting new ideas.
Gems grant players boosts to specific attributes that make every playstyle more viable. Different gems fit in various styles and players won't always have what they need to fit their kit. To get the best results, they may have to resort to building their own gems and creating their own buffs.
Crafting gems in Xenoblade Chronicles 3
Xenoblade Chronicles 3 players know the benefits of fashion and accessorizing when it comes to battle. Gems are an important part of the build that gives one the power to change their toolkit before each encounter.
One can only craft gems at the rest stops that allow them to safely take a break. This means that if a player wants to make a few new jewels, they can fast travel to a location.
They will need gem stones, materials from monsters, and Ether Cylinders to craft their gems. Players will also need Noipon Coins, a crucial currency that they should farm whenever possible.
From the Rest Stop menu, they can select the Gem Crafting option, which is marked with the gem logo. Just open that menu and check the items required by each gem.

Higher-ranking gems require a much better quality and quantity of materials to craft. The effects are listed on the Gem Crafting screen, as well as the materials it'll take to build them and the time required for the process.
Xenoblade Chronicles 3 players would do well to find the best combination of gems for their favorite classes. Just stop at any Rest Stop, choose the Gem Craft option, and find the right material to make it happen.
