Top-tier Farmable Gem Chalices — Bloodborne
Top-tier Farmable Gem Chalices — Blood gems, Bloodborne. Choose the effect, dungeon and target; understand what Discovery actually improves.

Choose a route
- First define your desired damage type, shape and secondary effect.
- Check the dungeon rites and boss layer. Published high-level routes often use depth 5 root chalices.
- Glyphs are the identifiers published in the local wiki. Their presence here does not guarantee that a dungeon is still shared online.
What Discovery changes
| Desired effect | Influence of Discovery |
|---|---|
| Obtaining a gem from an ordinary enemy | Can improve the probability when its drop pool also contains other items |
| Obtaining a gem from a chalice boss | The boss already drops a gem |
| Rating, strength, exact effect or curse | Does not select them |
| Upgrade materials from bosses | Can increase drop frequency |

Rites for these three routes
The three glyphs above are published with Fetid, Rotted and Cursed rites. Secondary bonuses and curses remain random. A short route can be more useful than a very rare theoretical best result.

Define the primary effect, secondary effect and shape, then choose a target that can provide that combination.
For a glyph, check the chalice and its rites. The variants below distinguish chalice routes from world treasures.
