How to Get More Dielectric Ceramic in Last War: Survival (Fast Farming & Merge Guide)

Crafting a single piece of Legendary Gold gear requires exactly 750 Dielectric Ceramic.

Unlocked at Gear Factory Level 10, this material forms the biggest progression wall for mid-game players. Without a full set of Gold gear on your main squad, your combat power will fall behind in competitive modes.

Dielectric Ceramic serves as the primary gateway resource before the late-game bottleneck shifts to Mythic Blueprints. Farming it requires strict Material Workshop management, smart trade truck raiding, and disciplined store purchases.

The Complete Material Hierarchy & Merge Ratios

Crafting Dielectric Ceramic follows a strict five-tier conversion hierarchy inside the Gear Factory. Lower-tier crafting parts merge into higher-tier components at fixed four-to-one ratios.

Material Tier	Item Name	Quality Level	Merge Requirement	Total Screws Equivalent
Tier 1	Screws	Common (White)	Base Component	1 Screw
Tier 2	Refined Iron Module	Uncommon (Green)	4 Screws	4 Screws
Tier 3	Superalloy	Rare (Blue)	4 Refined Iron Modules	16 Screws
Tier 4	Synthetic Resin	Epic (Purple)	4 Superalloys	64 Screws
Tier 5	Dielectric Ceramic	Legendary (Gold)	4 Synthetic Resins	256 Screws

You need 256 basic Screws to produce a single Dielectric Ceramic.

Crafting one Legendary Gold gear piece requires 750 Dielectric Ceramics, which equals 192,000 Screws.

Gear Factory Disintegrate vs Merge

The Gear Factory provides two conversion paths for gear management.

Merging combines four items of the same tier into one item of the next rarity level. Disintegrating breaks down completed gear back into basic materials to recoup crafting resources.

Function	Action Taken	Primary Benefit	Resource Penalty
Merge	Combines four identical items into higher rarity	Upgrades low-tier items into Gold materials	None
Disintegrate	Destroys unused gear for base crafting parts	Recovers materials to fund Gold gear	Upgraded Ore is lost

Always merge raw materials upward to reach Dielectric Ceramic. Use disintegration only on completed low-tier gear pieces that your squads no longer equip.

Top 6 Ways to Farm Dielectric Ceramic Fast

1. Material Workshop and Smelter Optimization

The Material Workshop serves as your main source of passive material production.

Upgrading your Material Workshop to Level 18 through Level 20 increases hourly Screw output and expands your offline storage limit.

Building Level	Production Rate per Hour	Max Storage Capacity	Daily Screw Output
Level 10	180 Screws	1,800 Screws	4,320 Screws
Level 15	320 Screws	3,840 Screws	7,680 Screws
Level 18	450 Screws	5,400 Screws	10,800 Screws
Level 20	600 Screws	7,200 Screws	14,400 Screws

Pair the Material Workshop with Smelter production to maintain continuous output. Collect your accumulated materials before the storage capacity fills to prevent production downtime.

2. Secret Task and Trade Truck Looting

Trade Trucks offer high weekly yields of crafting materials when targeted correctly.

Reroll your personal trade trucks using diamonds until you roll Purple Trade Trucks carrying Purple Gear Chests. Purple Gear Chests contain direct drops of Synthetic Resin and finished purple gear pieces.

Truck Quality	Priority Loot Targets	Expected Gear Material Yield	Raid Value
Gold Truck	UR Hero Shards, Diamonds	Low gear materials	Moderate
Purple Truck	2x or 3x Purple Gear Chests	High Synthetic Resin yield	Maximum
Blue Truck	Basic Resource Crates	Screws and Iron Modules	Low

When searching for enemy trucks to plunder, skip gold trucks that only hold hero shards. Target purple trucks displaying multiple Purple Gear Chests to gain immediate materials for your merge pipeline.

3. Dismantling Low-Tier Gear

Dismantling unused equipment clears inventory space and generates immediate crafting materials.

Dismantle all Common, Uncommon, and Rare gear drops obtained from world bosses and daily tasks.

Gear Quality	Disintegrate Yield per Piece	Action Rule
Common (White)	10 Screws	Dismantle instantly
Uncommon (Green)	40 Screws	Dismantle instantly
Rare (Blue)	160 Screws	Dismantle instantly
Epic (Purple)	1 Synthetic Resin	Dismantle unequipped duplicates

Never upgrade Purple gear past Level 10. Upgrading purple equipment consumes high amounts of Gold Ore that cannot be refunded when you dismantle the item later.

4. Store Priority Guide and the Honor Shop Trap

Purchasing crafting materials through in-game shops speeds up your Gold gear production.

Shop Type	Recommended Purchase	Cost Currency	Weekly Purchase Limit
Alliance Store	Dielectric Ceramic	Alliance Contribution Points	50 Units
Campaign Store	Dielectric Ceramic	Campaign Medals	200 Units
VIP Store (VIP 6+)	Synthetic Resin	Diamonds	20 Units
Honor Store	DO NOT BUY CERAMICS	Honor Medals	None

Never spend Honor Medals on Dielectric Ceramic in the Honor Store.

Honor Medals are hard to acquire and must be saved exclusively for Mythic Gear Blueprints. Spending Honor Medals on Ceramic creates a severe progression blocker once your Gear Factory reaches Level 20.

5. Event Farming and Milestone Rewards

In-game events reward large quantities of finished materials and gear chests for completing point tiers.

Focus on maxing reward crates across key competitive modes throughout the weekly event schedule.

Event Name	Key Objective	Gear Material Reward
Desert Storm	Secure oil refineries and command posts	High Dielectric Ceramic bundles
Alliance Duel (VS)	Maximize Day 6 Kill Day and Day 4 Hero Day chests	Purple Gear Chests and Superalloys
Arms Race	Complete 3 daily Arms Race stages	Synthetic Resin and Screw crates
Zombie Siege	Defend alliance headquarters from zombie waves	Epic Gear Chests

Coordinate with your alliance during Alliance Duel to hit all 9 reward chests daily. The final reward chests contain the highest concentration of high-tier gear components.

6. World Map Farming and Radar Tasks

Clearing daily map objectives provides continuous drops of basic crafting components.

Rally against high-level Doom Walkers and Boomer bosses alongside your alliance members to earn bonus reward crates.

World Map Target	Stamina Cost	Typical Drop	Daily Limit
Doom Walker (Lv 25+)	20 Stamina	Rare Gear Chests and Screws	10 Rallies
Boomer Bosses	15 Stamina	Material Crates and Ore	5 Clears
Radar Task Dispatches	0 Stamina	Direct Screw and Iron drops	Refreshes every 6 hours

Keep your radar cleared continuously to prevent dispatch missions from capping at your headquarters.

Squad Allocation & Gear Priority Strategy

Spreading your Gold gear evenly across March 1, March 2, and March 3 slows down your account power.

Focus every Dielectric Ceramic you farm on your primary Squad 1 until all five heroes are fully equipped with Gold gear.

Hero Role	Recommended Heroes	First Craft Priority	Second Craft Priority
Frontline Tank	Murphy, Williams	Radar (Energy Defense)	Tactical Armor (Physical Defense)
Backline DPS	Kimberly, Stetmann	Heavy Railgun (Attack)	Data Chip (Crit and Speed)
Backline Support	Marshall	Radar (Survivability)	Tactical Armor (Defense)

Strip all purple gear equipped on your second and third squads.

Dismantle those spare purple pieces to instantly forge Kimberly’s Railgun and Murphy’s Radar. A single overpowered main squad wins far more matches than three mediocre squads.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

• Spending real money on Dielectric Ceramic packs instead of buying Mythic Blueprints.
• Letting the Material Workshop production queue sit at maximum capacity while offline.
• Upgrading Epic Purple gear to Level 20, which destroys your long-term Gold Ore supply.
• Raiding trade trucks for gold shards when your primary bottleneck is gear crafting.
• Leaving low-tier white and green gear sitting in your bag instead of dismantling it.
• Confusing the 250 temporary inventory capacity cap with actual material resource limits.
