- ―In-game description, Epic Battle Fantasy 4
Rainbow Gems are a crafting item in Epic Battle Fantasy 3 and 4. They are a collection of colorful stones used for forging mostly magical-themed equipment.
In EBF3, Rainbow Gems appear as a pile of small, rounded stones. They can be bought in the Misc Shop of The Town for 860 gold; 38 are needed to upgrade all of the relevant equipment.
In EBF4, Rainbow Gems look similar to their previous appearance, but with some larger, irregular-looking crystals at the back of the pile. They are available for purchase in the Material Shops of Whitefall Town and Goldenbrick Resort for 1,000 gold. To complete all of the relevant upgrades, 57 are required.
