How to Get Forsaken Emblem in Ashes of Creation
There are two ways to get your hands on this rare reagent resource. One is grinding, the other is buying! While buying is much more convenient, it may not always be feasible.
Random Drops in Riverlands
Sadly, there is no guaranteed way to farm or quickly earn Forsaken Emblem in Ashes of Creation. You can get your hands on them only by slaying random mobs in the Riverlands region. They usually have a low drop chance.
Since Forsaken Emblems can drop from any type of enemy, I strongly recommend you battle every possible enemy type in the Riverlands region. Many players have reported that they only received one of them after reaching level 18. They are designed to be a slow accumulation resource. The game is purposefully designed to prevent players from farming them.
Buying from the Player Market
The most efficient way to get the much-needed Forsaken Emblems in later game stages is to simply buy them from the Player Market. These emblems are stackable and tradable, so many players who get extras may be willing to trade them. Check out the Player Market, and you might just get lucky! However, since it takes a serious grind to get some ‘extra’ ones, be prepared to pay a hefty price for them.
