Revision 1

Overview

Aeserion's Gear Blueprint is a multi-page crafting manual found hidden below the Serpent Shrine in Crimson Desert. The blueprint consists of 10 individual pages, each of which must be read separately to learn the corresponding weapon recipe. Once all pages are read, the player unlocks the ability to craft 10 unique Aeserion-class weapons at any blacksmith.

Location

The blueprint is found in a golden treasure chest hidden on the southern cliffside of the Serpent Shrine island. To reach it, look for a narrow rock passage lodged between two cliff walls on the southern edge of the island. Climb down the cliff face and squeeze through the gap to find a small hidden alcove containing the chest. This area is below the main shrine platform, so it is easy to miss if you only explore the upper level.

Weapon Recipes

Each page of the blueprint unlocks a unique Aeserion weapon recipe. These weapons represent some of the most powerful craftable equipment in the game.

Crafting Requirements

Crafting Aeserion weapons requires a combination of standard ores, rare materials, and Aeserion's Scales. The primary materials needed include:

• Iron Ore: Common mining material found throughout Pywel.

• Copper Ore: Readily available from mining nodes in most regions.

• Bismuth Ore: A rarer ore found primarily in Delesyia and late-game areas.

• Aeserion's Scales: The signature endgame material collected at the Serpent Shrine.

• Platinum: A hard-to-acquire metal that requires extensive alchemy to produce in sufficient quantities.

The platinum requirement is the biggest bottleneck for most players. Producing enough platinum through alchemy takes significant time and resources, making Aeserion weapons a long-term crafting goal rather than something you can forge immediately after finding the blueprint.

How to Read the Blueprint

Unlike single-page recipe books, Aeserion's Gear Blueprint requires you to read each page individually. Open the item in your inventory and you will be presented with a multi-page document. Interact with each page one at a time to learn the corresponding recipe. Simply opening the blueprint without reading through each page will not unlock all 10 recipes.

Tips

• The treasure chest location is easily missed. Explore the southern edge of the Serpent Shrine island and look for climbable cliff faces.

• You do not need to defeat any bosses to obtain the blueprint. It can be collected on your first visit to the shrine.

• Start stockpiling platinum through alchemy early, even before finding the blueprint. The crafting requirements are steep.

• Aeserion weapons can be further enhanced through gear refinement using additional Aeserion's Scales.

• Read every page of the blueprint before visiting the blacksmith. Missing even one page means you will not have access to that weapon type.
