How to Get Electrum and Orichalcum in The DioField Chronicle
What are Electrum and Orichalcum?
Electrum and Orichalcum are rare materials in The DioField Chronicle used to develop new weapons at The Institute (base). Upon successfully researching a new type of weapon, they will be added to the Shop’s stock and become available for purchase.
In the game, Electrum appear as gold bars and are required for researching armaments up to Weapon Development Rank 4 . The much rarer Orichalcum, meanwhile, look like crystal bars and are used for researching the strongest armaments in the game at Weapon Development Rank 5.
Weapon development is unlocked in Chapter 2 of the game’s main story campaign. Afterwards, visit The Institute on the first floor of the base to begin a tutorial on weapon development. You can unlock new weapons for research by leveling up your Weapon Development Rank sub tree from the Mercenary Unit Rank.
