Blood Crystals

Blood Crystals
Obtained from	Missions, Mineral Necklace
Used for	Currency in Blood Crystal Shop Time Machine

Blood crystals are a form of currency in DHM. They can be obtained by completing missions, from the gem finder, or from donating (must be unlocked).

Blood crystals are used mainly for buying things from the blood crystal shop. Such as bigger inventory storage, farming patches, and xp bonuses. Blood crystals can also be used with the Time Machine to instantly advance in-game time.

Below are all the places blood crystals are used.

(Note: In this section, BC is sometimes used for Blood Crystals)

Blood crystal well

The blood crystal well allows you to gamble away blood crystals in the hope of getting more. The minimum amount of blood crystals you can throw in the well is 100. (Or if the max is 50, then 50) For more information see the page on wells linked here:

Time machine

The time machine uses blood crystals to run. You may put in any amount of blood crystals in order to advance in game time. The more blood crystals you use, the more time is advanced. For more information, see the link below:

Wise Investing

Blood Crystals are hard to get without dropping a few bucks, so this section tells you what is worth it, and what isn't.

The higher it is on the chart, the more important it is you get it first.

''This section is based on opinion, but is helpful advise. You can decide to listen to it or not.''

Item or Upgrade name	Price	Wise Purchase?	Why?
Capacity	Varies	Yes	You will need more ores and oil as you get further in the game. Without upgrading capacity, you can't make or use certain items, like the rocket.
Hp Emblem	1,000 shop, 250 charge	Yes	You will need more hp to battle higher level monsters
Patches	Varies	Yes	The only reason hp emblems is above this is these aren't necessary, but are really helpful
Empty Orbs	Varies on type and amount purchased	Yes	While expensive, these are permanent buffs, and are the best of the consumable items options for Blood Crystals. Plus, you get to choose which buff you want.
Enriched Potions	Varies on type	Maybe	These potions are powerful, and can be profitable, but RNG is still a factor.
Area Maps	500	Maybe	Just like Gems below, you can get these elsewhere, by exploring the highest area you have. RNG just has to be in your favor.
VHW	250	Maybe	If you need energy and have the sailboat, you can send it out while it's active to get more fish. Also helps friends and others on the server.
Mystery Gems	Varies based on amount purchased	No	You might be tempted at lower levels, but you will have plenty of sapphires and emeralds, and you can get these boxes as a loot drop in desert.
Blood Crystal Well	User chooses	No	There is no guarantee you will get anything out of this, this is gambling, and is not a wise option.
Time Machine	Varies based on time skipped.	No	This is in my opinion, the worst way to spend Blood Crystals. This is an Idle game. You can wait a few hours.

Notes on the Chart Above:

These are some more reasons I* made this chart the way I* did.

• While VHW increases the fish caught, it still has a high use of RNG, meaning you can still get a bunch of low level fish.
• Patches can help raise the Farming and Woodcutting skills a lot faster, and are permanent.
• I mainly said permanent upgrades are the best, since they keep on giving.
• The Blood Crystal Well is above time machine because you can still get stuff from it.
• Mystery Gems can be sold to the shop for coins, making it the most direct way to convert Blood crystals to coins, but this is not recommended.
• Buffs are not included because they involve spending money, and I* have not done so, so I* can't advise you about it. It's entirely up to you.

Trivia

• Blood crystals used to be tradable for a few hours on the 18th of February
• The VHW spell used to cost 500 blood crystals
• Instead of buffs, there were two temporary upgrades. These are the +25% xp and 12 hours offline time upgrades, costing 500 and 100 BC respectively, and each lasted for 7 days.
