How to Produce 50 Petricite in Demacia Rising (League of Legends)
Demacia Rising is a turn-based strategy minigame within the League of Legends (LoL) client. Players build settlements, manage resources, recruit champions, and expand the kingdom. Petricite is a rare, late-game resource required for high-tier research, including unlocking Kayle, Galio, and the Demacian Steel upgrade line . This guide provides a complete, step-by-step walkthrough for producing 50 Petricite.
Quest Overview: Produce 50 Petricite
| Attribute | Details |
|---|---|
| Quest Name | Produce 50 Petricite |
| Game Mode | Demacia Rising (LoL Client Minigame) |
| Objective | Accumulate 50 Petricite through production structures |
| Key Structures | Durand’s Workshop + Petricite Mills |
| Location | Zeffira (Capital Settlement) only |
| Prerequisite | Zeffira must be Level 3 |
| Core Mechanic | Turn-based resource generation |
Prerequisites: Before You Begin
You cannot produce Petricite until the following conditions are met:
1. Zeffira Must Be Level 3
-
Upgrade your capital settlement Zeffira to Level 3 first.
-
This requires upgrading all Lumberyards, Quarries, and Forges to Level 2, plus a significant resource stockpile .
2. Build Durand’s Workshop
-
Durand’s Workshop is a Level 3 Kingdom research structure that produces +1 Petricite per turn .
-
It also provides a permanent 10% reduction in research costs (except Silver Shields).
-
Build it in Zeffira after upgrading to Level 3.
3. Build at Least 2 Petricite Mills
-
Petricite Mills are additional structures unlocked after Zeffira Level 3.
-
Each Petricite Mill produces +1 Petricite per turn (exact output may vary; some sources suggest Mills produce 1–2 Petricite per turn) .
-
Build them in available Zeffira slots.
Step-by-Step Guide
Follow these steps to complete the quest efficiently.
Step 1: Build Required Structures in Zeffira
Ensure the following structures are built and operational in your capital settlement:
| Structure | Quantity Needed | Production Rate | Build Requirements |
|---|---|---|---|
| Durand’s Workshop | 1 | +1 Petricite/turn | 500 Silver, 1250 Lumber (after research unlock) |
| Petricite Mill | 2 (minimum) | +1 Petricite/turn each | Varies (requires Zeffira Level 3) |
Total Production Baseline: With 1 Workshop + 2 Mills = ~3 Petricite per turn.
💡 If you have more settlement slots, build additional Mills to speed up production. 3–4 Mills reduce wait time significantly.
Step 2: Skip Turns Until 50 Petricite is Accumulated
-
Once your Petricite structures are built, simply skip turns by repeatedly clicking the Sun icon (ends your turn, costs 10 Silver Shields per turn).
-
Your total Petricite stockpile will increase each turn based on your combined production.
-
Continue skipping turns until your kingdom’s Petricite total reaches 50.
⏱️ Time Estimate:
| Production Rate | Turns Needed |
|---|---|
| 2 Petricite/turn | 25 turns |
| 3 Petricite/turn | ~17 turns |
| 4 Petricite/turn | 13 turns |
| 5 Petricite/turn | 10 turns |
✅ Quest Complete! The objective will automatically register once 50 Petricite is produced.

Completing this quest prepares you for all of these milestones.
🧠 Optimization Strategies
1. Build Multiple Petricite Mills
-
Zeffira has limited building slots. Prioritize Petricite Mills over less critical structures while working on this quest.
-
Each additional Mill significantly reduces wait time.
2. Start Production Early
-
Petricite generation is slow. Build Durand’s Workshop and your first Mills immediately after Zeffira reaches Level 3.
-
Do not wait until you need Petricite—start producing it early and stockpile.
3. Maintain Silver Shield Reserves
-
Each turn skipped costs 10 Silver Shields. Skipping 20+ turns costs 200+ Shields.
-
Complete Daily Missions (300+ Shields) and Weekly Missions (3750 Shields) to maintain your reserve .
4. Demolish Unnecessary Structures If Needed
-
If Zeffira has no empty slots, consider demolishing low-priority buildings (e.g., extra Farms, Barracks if you have multiple) to free space for Petricite Mills.
-
Do not demolish Durand’s Workshop, unique structures, or essential production buildings.
5. Check Production Rates
-
Hover over Petricite in your resource bar to see your current production per turn.
-
If production seems low, verify that all Mills are correctly built and not paused.
❗ Important Notes
-
Petricite is only produced in Zeffira. You cannot build Petricite structures in other settlements .
-
Durand’s Workshop is unique. You can only build one per kingdom .
-
Petricite Mills are not unique. Build as many as Zeffira’s slots allow.
-
This quest tracks total production, not net gain. Spending Petricite during the process will not reset progress, but it will delay reaching the 50 threshold.
-
Patch Requirement: Petricite and related structures were introduced in Patch 26.3 . Ensure your client is updated.
