About

The Red Gem is a crafting resource obtained from certain creatures, supply drops, or spawned directly by admins. It appears in recipes for advanced equipment and serves as a sink for high-level player progression.

Since it has no numeric item ID, use the GFI code to spawn it. The gem does not stack into a single inventory slot, so large quantities will take up multiple slots when spawned or transferred.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which game is the Red Gem from?
The Red Gem is from ARK: Survival Ascended. Every ID, code, and command on this page is specific to ARK: Survival Ascended and its current live build.
What is the class name for the Red Gem?
The class name for the Red Gem is PrimalItemResource_Gem_Element_C. Class names end in _C and identify the item's blueprint at runtime, which makes them useful for spawn tools, mods, and RCON macros.
How do I spawn the Red Gem in ARK: Survival Ascended?
Open the admin console and run cheat gfi PrimalItemResource_Gem_Element 1 0 0. That gives you one Red Gem instantly. The three numbers after the code are quantity, quality, and blueprint flag. Raise the first to spawn a stack, or set the last to 1 to receive it as a blueprint instead of a finished item. Verified against the current ARK: ASA build as of June 28, 2026.
Can I get the Red Gem without spawning it?
Yes. The Red Gem can also be obtained through normal ARK: Survival Ascended progression. Admins usually spawn it for speed when testing, running events, or outfitting players, which is what the commands on this page are for.
How do I spawn the Red Gem as a blueprint instead of a finished item?
Set the final argument to 1: cheat gfi PrimalItemResource_Gem_Element 1 0 1. The last number is the blueprint flag, where 0 gives the crafted item and 1 gives its blueprint (for craftable items; on items with no blueprint the flag is simply ignored).
What is the Red Gem used for?
The Red Gem is a crafting resource obtained from certain creatures, supply drops, or spawned directly by admins. It appears in recipes for advanced equipment and serves as a sink for high-level player progression.
Is the Red Gem blueprint path case-sensitive?
Yes. "Blueprint'/Game/Aberration/CoreBlueprints/Resources/PrimalItemResource_Gem_Element.PrimalItemResource_Gem_Element'" must be typed exactly, including capitalization and the wrapping quotes. Copy it from this page to avoid a typo that returns an empty spawn.
How do I spawn multiple Red Gem at once?
Change the quantity argument, the first number after the code. For example cheat gfi PrimalItemResource_Gem_Element 25 0 0 spawns 25 of the Red Gem. Stacks respect the item's maximum stack size.
Can I spawn the Red Gem over RCON or on a dedicated server?
Yes. Send the same command through RCON or your control-panel console: cheat gfi PrimalItemResource_Gem_Element 1 0 0. If your tool already runs with admin context, drop the leading "cheat". It works the same on hosted, self-hosted, and RCON setups.
Is the Red Gem spawn code on GameServersCodex accurate?
Yes. The Red Gem's class name, GFI code, item ID, and blueprint path are reproduced exactly from the live game data and re-checked each patch, so you can copy them straight into your console.
When was the Red Gem data last updated?
The Red Gem entry was last verified on GameServersCodex on June 28, 2026. We track the live ARK: ASA build, so the IDs and commands here reflect the current patch.
What items are related to the Red Gem?
See the Related section at the bottom of this page for items commonly used alongside the Red Gem, or open Browse Games to explore the full ARK: Survival Ascended database.
Does the Red Gem spawn command work in single-player and multiplayer?
Yes, the command is identical in both. Single-player has cheats enabled by default; multiplayer just requires an admin login first. The Red Gem then spawns the same way.
What's the difference between the Red Gem GFI code and its blueprint path?
The GFI code PrimalItemResource_Gem_Element is a short name for quick spawning; the blueprint path "Blueprint'/Game/Aberration/CoreBlueprints/Resources/PrimalItemResource_Gem_Element.PrimalItemResource_Gem_Element'" is the full engine reference used by GiveItem and spawn tools. Both point at the same Red Gem.
What is the blueprint path for the Red Gem?
The full blueprint path is "Blueprint'/Game/Aberration/CoreBlueprints/Resources/PrimalItemResource_Gem_Element.PrimalItemResource_Gem_Element'". Paste it into GiveItem to spawn the exact item: cheat GiveItem "Blueprint'/Game/Aberration/CoreBlueprints/Resources/PrimalItemResource_Gem_Element.PrimalItemResource_Gem_Element'" 1 0 0. Copy it exactly, because the path is case sensitive and must keep its wrapping quotes.
How do I enable admin commands to spawn the Red Gem?
In single-player, cheats are on by default. On a dedicated or hosted server, log in as admin first with enablecheats <AdminPassword>, then run the Red Gem spawn command. Without admin access the console rejects it.
How do I spawn a higher-quality Red Gem?
The second number is quality, where 0 is primitive and higher values roll toward ascendant. cheat gfi PrimalItemResource_Gem_Element 1 100 0 attempts a top tier Red Gem. Quality only affects items that support tiers; on others it's ignored.
What's the Red Gem GFI short code?
The GFI code for the Red Gem is PrimalItemResource_Gem_Element. GFI matches the item by its short blueprint name, so cheat gfi PrimalItemResource_Gem_Element 1 0 0 is the fastest way to spawn it without typing the full blueprint path.
How do I add the Red Gem to a starter kit or loadout?
Include cheat gfi PrimalItemResource_Gem_Element 1 0 0 in your server's kit or spawn script, and set the quantity argument to hand out multiples. Pair it with other item commands from the Codex to build a full loadout.

What is the Red Gem class used for in mods or spawn tools?
Spawn managers, loot-table editors, and RCON macros reference the Red Gem by its class PrimalItemResource_Gem_Element_C or GFI PrimalItemResource_Gem_Element. Both uniquely identify it in ARK: Survival Ascended.
Why isn't my Red Gem spawn command working?
Check three things: admin access is enabled (enablecheats on servers), the code is typed exactly (PrimalItemResource_Gem_Element), and all three trailing numbers are present. Copying cheat gfi PrimalItemResource_Gem_Element 1 0 0 directly from this page avoids the most common mistakes.
Where can I copy the Red Gem spawn command?

What do the numbers in the Red Gem spawn command mean?
In cheat gfi PrimalItemResource_Gem_Element 1 0 0, the code identifies the Red Gem, then the three numbers are quantity, quality, and blueprint flag (0 = item, 1 = blueprint). So it spawns one standard Red Gem.
