How to Make All Mighty & Elemental Jewels in Grounded

Jewels are essential crafting materials in Grounded that unlock access to much higher weapon upgrading tiers. Whether you’re looking to craft Salty, Mint, Mighty, Spicy, or Sour jewels, this guide will walk you through the exact ingredients and locations you need to gather all five jewel types.

Understanding Jewel Types and Requirements

There are five jewel types you can craft in Grounded, all made using your oven. Each jewel requires the same base components but varies in the elemental shards needed:

Salty Jewel: 3 Salty Shards

Mint Jewel: 3 Mint Shards

Spicy Jewel: 2 Spicy Shards

Sour Jewel: 2 Sour Shards

Mighty Jewel: Special elemental combination

In addition to the elemental shards, every single jewel recipe requires the same universal components:

1 Twinkling Shell

1 Supreme Whetstone

Gathering Twinkling Shells from Scarabs

Twinkling Shells are obtained exclusively from Scarabs—those quick, shiny little insects known for their speed and evasiveness. In open areas, Scarabs are notoriously difficult to catch due to their burrows, which they use to escape quickly.

However, there’s an optimal farming location: Head to the Under-Shed area and locate the PVC pipe. This area contains multiple Scarabs running up and down the pipe. The key advantage is that Scarabs in this location have no access to burrows, making them much easier to kill and harvest from compared to other areas.

Crafting Your Jewels in the Oven

Once you’ve gathered all the required materials (your elemental shards, Twinkling Shell, and Supreme Whetstone), head to your oven and place in the ingredients. The oven will begin the crafting process, which takes considerable time due to the jewels’ powerful nature. Be patient—the wait is worth it, as these jewels unlock significant weapon upgrade potential.

Summary

Crafting all Mighty and Elemental Jewels in Grounded requires gathering elemental shards specific to each jewel type, along with universal components (Twinkling Shells and Supreme Whetstones). The Under-Shed PVC pipe is your best resource for obtaining Twinkling Shells efficiently. With these materials collected and placed in your oven, you’ll unlock access to the game’s highest weapon upgrade tiers.
