Mining & Crafting Guide
How to mine resources and craft equipment in Seven Deadly Sins: Origin
Mining and crafting are core activities in Seven Deadly Sins: Origin that let you gather resources from the open world and turn them into powerful equipment. This guide covers everything from mining basics to advanced crafting recipes.
Mining Guide
Mining is done by interacting with mineral nodes scattered throughout the open world. Walk up to a glowing rock formation and press the interact button to mine it. Each node yields 2-5 items.
| Ore | Rarity | Used For | Location |
|---|---|---|---|
| Iron Ore | Common | Basic weapons and armor | Everywhere — rocks and mineral nodes |
| Silver Ore | Uncommon | Mid-tier equipment | Cave interiors, mountain paths |
| Gold Ore | Rare | High-tier equipment, Gold currency | Deep caves, hidden mineral veins |
| Flint | Common | Cooking (required for campfires) | Any mineral node |
| Gemstones | Rare | Accessories, engraving | Rare mineral nodes, dungeon rewards |
Crafting Guide
Crafting is done at Workbenches found in towns and camps. Different workbenches handle different item categories. You can also place your own portable workbench.
Weapons
Craft swords, axes, grimoires, nunchaku, and gauntlets at the Weapon Workbench.
Armor
Craft body armor, helmets, and boots at the Armor Workbench.
Accessories
Craft rings, necklaces, and earrings for stat bonuses.
Consumables
Craft potions, Potions of Charm (for pet capture), and buff items.
Campfire
Craft portable campfires for cooking anywhere in the open world.
Key Crafting Recipes
Potion of Charm
Required for capturing pets. Craft at any workbench using Wild Herbs + Empty Bottle.
Portable Campfire
Cook anywhere in the field. Requires Iron Ore + Flint + Wood.
Engraved Equipment
Endgame gear with special substats. Requires rare ores + dungeon drops + Gold.
Equipment Upgrading
Crafted equipment can be upgraded to increase its stats. Upgrading requires Enhancement Stones and Gold. Higher upgrade levels have a chance of failure.
Tip: Don't over-invest in early game gear. Save your Enhancement Stones for endgame Engraved Equipment.
Tips
Mine every node you see — Flint is needed for cooking, and ores are always useful.
Mineral nodes respawn — return to the same locations periodically for more resources.
Upgrade your workbench — higher-tier workbenches unlock better crafting recipes.
Sell excess ores for Gold — if you have surplus common ores, selling them is efficient.
