How to Upgrade Hand of Rock Tarstones in Mortal Shell 2
You can upgrade your Tarstones by giving Franz the Etching Needle, a quest item that expands the upgrade options of the Tarforge in the Marrow Keep. The Etching Needle can be looted from a chest right before fighting Magdalena, the Lady of the Woods Boss fight. When you see Ruk past the bridge, jump down the opening and turn right before the tunnel to find a small section with a bone chest. Loot this chest to get the Etching Needles.
After you acquire the Etching Needles, make sure to equip the Tarstone and slay enemies to increase the experience. Once the XP bar is full, you can go back to Franz in Marrow Keep to upgrade the Hand of Rock to the next level, which costs Coin per upgrade.
