The Blacksmith in Saint Haven will have a new quest that introduces Dragon Jade to you around Level 40. This quest will teach you all you need to know about Dragon Jades and allow you to choose one Low Grade Rare Jade as a reward. Some main and sub quests rewards have been changed to Dragon Jades.
Introduction to Dragon Jade System
Dragon Jades are items you can slot into your equipment to give them additional stats. A Dragon jade when slotted into your equipment, give two types of stats increase. One is a fixed increase and one is a percentage increase (a combination of suffix + potential)
Percentage increases will differ based on the rarity of the jade (Epic or Rare)
Fixed increases will differ based on the rarity, grade and level requirement of the jade.
Dragon Jades can be traded after being sealed, each jade only needs one seal. Maximum 5 seal times like all equipment.
Currently, There are three types of dragon jade in existence. However only two types of dragon jade have been released.
The two released Jades:
Blue Jade : Shape: Hexgonal, Color: Light Blue
Main Stats that it can enhance: STR, AGI, INT, HP, MP,
Red Jade: Shape: Oval, Color: Red
Main Stats that it can enhance: ATK, MATK, CRIT, ELE-ATK
Unreleased:
Yellow Jade: Shape: Triangular, Color: Yellow
This is known as the skill jade, it is rumored to give a suffix effect when slotted into the equipment.
Equipment Types and Slots
Different equipment types have different slots. You can only slot a dragon jade into the equipment if the slot has not yet been used. Below is the list of what slots each type of equipment has
- Head, Top, Bottom, Glove, Shoes: 2 blue jade, 1 yellow jade
- Weapons: 1 blue jade, 1 red jade, 1 yellow jade
- Necklace and Earrings: 1 blue jade
- Rings: 1 red jade
Each Dragon Jade will increase the stats of the equipment it is slotted into by a fixed amount and also apply a percentage increase. The same dragon jade might give different stats options. There are no such things as extra stats Dragon Jades.
Example: A Rare Lvl 60 Intermediate Grade Fire Enhancement Dragon Jade can either give:
Option 1: 4.55% fire attack, 105 matk
Option 2: 4.55% fire attack, 105 patk
Option 3: 4.55% fire attack, 56 patk and 56matk
Low and Intermediate Grade Dragon Jades can have up to 2-3 different options
High Grade Dragon Jades are rumored to have 35 or more different options. (Not released yet)
Example of a dragon jade
Level, Rarity, Types and Grades.
Like talisman, the amount of fixed stat increase differs between dragon jades based on the rarity, the level requirement and the grade of the jade. (Eg Lvl 70 can add 336 atk, but lvl 60 ones will only add 166)
However what you need to know is that the percentage differences are only based on the rarity and the differences are significant. Percentage increases work exactly the same way as potential.
Dragon Jades currently have a level requirement from 40-70, based on which level cap dungeon/nest it drops from.
e new Chaos Mode Dungeons.

Slotting Dragon Jades
You can only slot and remove dragon jades from your equipment while in town.
To slot a dragon jade into your equipment, simply right click on the dragon jade in your inventory and the UI will appear. Then right click on the equipment that you want to slot the jade into and its done!
To remove the dragon jade from your equipment, simply Shift + right click the equipment you want to remove the dragon jade from and the dragon jade removal UI will appear. You than choose the dragon jade you want to remove and click remove. It would cost a little amount of gold to remove the dragon jade which would than go back to your inventory.

Comparison of Dragon Jades and Suffix/Potential
At first glance Dragon Jade might seem to give less stats than Suffix, but in actuality im sure you have realized that different types of equipment give different stats. (Eg Wind2 glove and Wind2 Top, the difference is huge). The thing about dragon jade is that now your glove will give as much stats as your top. So overall i think the stats given is the same.
However this is a big boost for sorceress and a nerf to clerics/warriors because Sorceress equips used to give the lowest suffix stats but now all classes will share the same stats.
However there is a percentage nerf (compensated by higher fixed increase), and you can no longer have % crit and % atk/matk on the same weapon, nor can you have ele% and matk% on the same weapon. Also there are no jades that increase vit%, so you might see a drop in max HP.
Dragon Jade Crafting
High-grade jades can only be gotten from crafting. All other ways of getting jades currently (PVP, dungeons, nest) only give up to intermediate grade. High Grade Jades have the same % increase as intermediate-grade jades, just better(in most cases) base stats.
Dragon Jade Crafting can be accessed from the Blacksmith.
To craft a jade, you need jade hearts and jade fragments and gold.
Jade fragments can be gotten from disassembling jades. See here.
Jade hearts are gotten from the Goddess Sigh exchange shop
Jade heart exchange:
Crafting jades is all about luck, as there is 2 layers of randomization.
You can choose between 2 options for crafting: Offense and Defense. You will be given a random type jade from the list based on the option you have chosen.
Offense:
PhyAttack/Matk/Critical/ElementAttack
Defense:
STR/AGI/INT/HP/MP
Crafting UI:
The next randomization:
Each type of high grade jade has up to 31 different options, each with varying amount of stats. They range from the base stat being weaker than intermediate jades and adding bad stats (Main Stat + Critical Resist + Stun Resist) to ultra rare options like (Lots of Main Stat + Vitality). Note: FD or Elemental Attack/Defense are not included in the stats randomized.Its all a game of luck. Your crafted jade could be worth a lot or just sold to the NPC...
I will not bother doing a list of stats as there are too many options involved. But based on memory i remember the most expensive high grade jades now being:
+954 VIT + 22k HP Life Jade.
+9XX STR/AGI/INT + 3XX VIT Wind/Bear/Wise Jade.
+10xx AGI Wind Jade
and than there are bad option jades like:
+ 3xx AGI + 89 attack + 5xx Stun Resist Wind Jade (note intermediate wind jade already gives 7xx AGI, so this is bad stats.
Skill Jades
Shape: Triangular
These are jades that can be gotten from hell mode only.(challenge nest for lvl 70). They act like the old suffix effects, activating when you use your skills. The effects for weapon jades (purple) will be to increase your attack/lower a certain def/resist of the enemy. Armors jades will recover health and increase a certain defense stat. This depends on the type of jade
Example of a skill jade:
Preliminary testing by CDN players have confirmed that the defense increase for armor jade stacks. Armor jades have a cooldown of 30seconds and weapon jade 60seconds. Unlike suffix, their chance of activating seems to be 100%, with only the cooldown preventing them from continuously activating. It is not known if SB/BT will lower these cooldowns.
Update: DNKR 220113(This might come to SEA immediately with 70cap)
Rare jades combined into one, added additional stats to compensate (no more low, intermediate, high)
Can be equipped while sealed
Can buy at Cassius Palace alliance shop
Epic Jades: Crafting changed, now you can select the stats you want (AGI, STR, HP etc) only the stats/options will be randomed.
Can buy epic jades bag from Cassius Alliance shop.
