Frequently Asked Questions
How do you get Shard Flowers and Essence in Kinder?
Find Dried Shard Flower Seeds in desert pyramids, jungle temples, or Farmer Villager trades, soak them in water to get colored seeds, grow the Shard Flowers, and craft each flower with a Diamond, Nether Quartz, and a Potion.
Why did my Gem Incubator explode?
A Gem Incubator explodes if placed too high near the surface or surrounded by low-value blocks such as dirt and grass instead of underground stone.
How do you grow a Pearl Gem without breaking the Pearl Oyster?
Waterlog a Pearl Oyster, insert white essence, wait for sparkles to appear, and right-click the shell with a Pearl Shuck, keeping in mind that repeated shucking can eventually stress and break the oyster.
What does Gem Perfection affect in Kinder?
Perfection ranges from 1 to 6 and scales a Gem's health, attack damage, and utility strength, including expanding a Pearl Gem's storage from three rows of nine slots up to six rows.
How do you command, dye, or reset a Gem's owner?
Right-click an untamed Gem to claim it, sneak-right-click to cycle follow, wait, and wander modes, use dyes to color its uniform or insignia, and use a Rejuvenator to reset ownership.
