How to Get Cron Stones?
I just Graduated from seasonal at lvl 61, trying to get my weapon to DEC tuvala but it seems almost impossible with no cron stones because the material (i think its called "Condensed Magical Black Stone" ?) needed to even try to upgrade the weapon is a expensive material and is a scarce resource for me to be wasting it just for the weapon to degrade its self upon failure

Go to a blacksmith and buy them for 3 mil silver each, or you can go the pay to win route and buy costumes from the pearl market and melt them down into cron's at a blacksmith,

Both ways are extremely expensive, 1 will hurt your in game silver the other will seriously hurt your real world bank balance the choice is yours :)

Pit of the undying is one way to every day make cronstones
does not take very long after you learn how the fights work

it is not much...but doing it consistantly is better than not doing pit of undying

The game is giving away Cron Stones willy-nilly just now as login rewards. I just picked up 550 today from rolling two gift boxes and have accumulated over 3000 now since I last graduated and completed the enhancement you are doing. There is not a high amount of Crons needed to enhance PEN Tuvala to DEC, as I remember. Save the guaranteed enhancement tools you got from graduation for the last two stages. If I remember right there are only 5 stages so Crons are only needed for the first 3. Never enhance without Crons at this level, nor a reasonable failstack.

The enhance material I think you are talking about is actually Concentrated Magical Black Stone which can be made by heating a Sharp Black Crystal Shard with 2 Black Stones, both of which you should have already accumulated from general game play (gathering etc.)

I like to grind, but I also like to life skill.
I truly don't understand why it is considered expensive to use in-game silver to buy Cron Stones from the Blacksmith.
In game silver is free silver.
The only cost is a bit of time on the players part.
Even three to four of the mid-high tier areas in BDO can profit a player 300 to 400 mil silver an hour in trash loot alone, without using agris.
I can understand using ones credit card to buy an outfit, a tent, a celestial horn, for a character, but please don't do that to just get cron stones.
Life skill and Grind.
Use your in-game silver to buy your cron stones.
Use your in-game cards wisely on the Black Spirit Adventure board to get onto the special board to get more free cron stones.
Keep an eye out for the coupons on the Gramoth website to get free cron stones when they happen to pop up.
Login daily, so you don't miss a day that free cron stones happen to be given out by PA.
Be patient. 😊

pit of the undying is a tournament you can enter 1/day and you can go up in difficulty
easiest give 50cron/day(I think) and the hardest give 100crons/day

there is a quest for it that take you to the crow pirates leader that let you into the tournament
(I think you still need to do it to open up the tournament)

there are good guides for it on youtube

they seem to be rewards from events, daily login and the Black Spirit Adventure

i think at the start of this year 10k were given out by PA as a gift. Thats said I still have 13k after my free V Black star weapon. Im a relatively new player. I am still upgrading my boss gear to pen and I ahve the kharazad accesory to do aswell. I havent genuinely only used maybe 5k? so far.

I just dislike bad odds so im not jumping into enhancement until I properly understand ALL of the possibilities to tilt my odds.
