Albrecht's Workshop

Information

Albrecht's Workshop can be used to produce higher-value gems from lower-value gems. This will also require some money, time and additional resources like Crystal Glue and Magnifying glasses , which an both be bought in Leonid's shop.

There may be future requirements, such as Jewellery Cases for higher level gems, though this hasn't been implemented yet.

Construction

• Find a spyglass . Buy it at Leonids for 60 , 30 and 15 .
  Hint: The spyglass is a top shelf item from Leonids shop, so buy the top shelf item every time to improve the odds of you getting the spyglass.
• Manage construction. Provide 550 energy zaps . (Open the quest window, click on hammer . This will consume energy).
