Complete guide to all Amphoreus Hidden Merchants in Version 3.0: Janus' Steed and Garmentmakers locations, exclusive recipes, Memory Crystal Shard spending, and how to earn 30 Stellar Jades + 100 Ambrosia per 10 Creation Nymphs.
What Makes Amphoreus Merchants Special
Okhema's Eternal Holy City features 6 stores beyond standard vendors. Hidden merchants offer exclusive recipes, records, and services using Memory Crystal Shards—earned from side missions (2 or 5 shards per completion).
Hidden vs Standard Vendors
Standard merchants (Marmoreal Diner, Librarium, Treasure of Ages, Kyros, Ctesiphona, Theodoros) use conventional currencies. Hidden merchants use butterfly icons and specialized systems.
Garmentmakers facilitate Creation Nymph collection. Submit Memory Crystal Shards for location hints. Rewards: 30 Stellar Jades + 100 Ambrosia per 10 Nymphs collected.

Access Requirements
Complete initial Amphoreus storyline to unlock Okhema. Marmoreal Market Space Anchor is central navigation point.

Spending Strategy
Recipe vs Nymph Priority
Immediate builds: Buy critical recipes from Janus' Steed first Long-term/F2P: Invest in Garmentmaker hints for Stellar Jade income
Balanced approach: Critical recipes → remaining shards to Nymph collection.
Farming Efficiency
- 5-shard missions: Higher difficulty, longer chains
- 2-shard missions: Still contribute—complete systematically
- Check daily/weekly resets for new shard content
Common Mistakes
Missing Butterfly Icons
Train yourself to scan for butterfly markers in settlements. Mark Garmentmaker locations for repeated visits.
Poor Shard Spending
Don't buy low-priority recipes before securing Garmentmaker hints. Evaluate recipe utility:
- Does it enable your build?
- Provides hard-to-get materials?
If no, defer for Nymph investment.
Ignoring Regional Coverage
Both Okhema and Dawncloud Garmentmakers offer independent rewards. Explore both regions systematically.
Golden Garmentmaker offers unique Hymn Tablet exchange—don't assume all Garmentmakers are identical.
