About
- •Metal gear with teeth used in mechanical systems and construction. Most commonly obtained by hunting mechanical enemies.
- •Dropped reliably by golems, robot mosquitoes, and humanoid machines found throughout Delesyia region.
- •Used in major crafting recipes: Kuku Rocket Pack (5x), A.T.A.G. Mech (300x), Kuku Propeller Spear (10x), Abyssal Dragon Armor (5x).
- •A.T.A.G. mech crafting is the largest demand — stock up on cogwheels early if you plan to build the mech.
- •Can be purchased from merchant NPCs in Hernand, Delesyia, and other trading hubs if farming drops feel insufficient.
- •Uncommon rarity — drops consistently from mechanical enemies, but bulk recipes demand extended farming sessions.
Gathering Guide
- •Primary source: hunt mechanical enemies in Delesyia — golems, robot mosquitoes, and similar contraptions drop cogwheels reliably
- •Secondary source: defeat Abyss enemies for additional cogwheel drops, especially near Abyss Nexus locations
- •Merchant NPCs across Hernand and Delesyia occasionally stock cogwheels — check trading posts if farming feels slow
- •Treasure chests in regional dungeons (particularly Delesyia ruins and cave systems) contain cogwheels as loot
- •Bulk farming tip: A.T.A.G. mech crafting requires 300x cogwheels — plan extended farming sessions or use merchant purchases to supplement drops
