Earrings in Classic World take six scroll families: STR, DEX, INT, LUK, Crit. Damage and Evasion, each in four tiers, for 24 earring scrolls. Every earring in the launch data has 5 upgrade slots. Along with capes and overalls, earrings are the only place you can scroll a main stat.
Quick answer: For main stat, the cheapest route at launch is quests: Proof of Companionship (KPQ, level 21) gives a random Intermediate, and the level 27 citizenship quest for your town (Henesys or Kerning City, grade 4+) lets you pick one. Community shop lists have Flint selling Crit. Damage Lessers and Ben selling Evasion Lessers. Stat Lessers can be crafted at Arcforge 8 (character level 40).
Tier mechanics are in the scrolling guide. This page sticks to earrings.

How to get earring scrolls
Shops (Lesser only)
| Scroll | Seller | Price (community-reported) | Citizenship grade (community-reported) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Earring Crit. Damage Scroll: Lesser | Flint, Henesys Town Hall | 40,000 | Helpful Stranger |
| Earring Evasion Scroll: Lesser | Ben, Kerning City Civic Center | 40,000 | Helpful Stranger |
Shop stock and prices aren't in the game data; this comes from community shop lists, so check in game. If it holds, which town you join for citizenship decides which earring scroll you can buy. No shop list we found sells earring STR, DEX, INT or LUK scrolls, or anything above Lesser.
Quests
| Quest | Level | NPC | Scroll reward | How it's given |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Proof of Companionship | 21 | Lakelis | Earring STR, Earring DEX, Earring INT, Earring LUK scroll (Intermediate) | One at random from 4 |
| Not Ready to Go Home Yet | 27 | JM From tha Streetz (Kerning City citizenship, grade 4+) | Earring STR, Earring DEX, Earring INT, Earring LUK scroll (Intermediate) | You choose one |
| Regained Vitality | 27 | Chief Stan (Henesys citizenship, grade 4+) | Earring STR, Earring DEX, Earring INT, Earring LUK scroll (Intermediate) | You choose one |
"One at random" means the quest hands you one scroll from its list by chance; "you choose" means you pick it on the reward screen. Proof of Companionship completes when your party kills King Slime in Lakelis's party quest, so pick it up before your first KPQ run. Regained Vitality and Not Ready to Go Home Yet are the citizenship versions for Henesys and Kerning City; each ends a citizenship chain (Regained Vitality needs Memories of Youth done, Not Ready to Go Home Yet needs One More Debt to Repay).
GM events (Magic Box)
The only Greater earring stat scrolls with a named source at launch come from luck: Nexon's Grand Launch notes list Earring STR, DEX, INT and LUK Intermediate and Greater scrolls among the random results of the Magic Box (win a Scroll of Secrets in a GM event, trade it to Chun Ji at the Kerning City Construction Site, open the box with Mr. Pickall in Kerning City). No live quest gives a Greater earring scroll.
Crafting (Arcforge)
| Scroll | Arcforge level | Gems | Fee |
|---|---|---|---|
| Earring STR Scroll: Lesser | 8 | 3 Black Crystal | 20,000 |
| Earring DEX Scroll: Lesser | 8 | 3 Black Crystal | 20,000 |
| Earring INT Scroll: Lesser | 8 | 3 Black Crystal | 20,000 |
| Earring LUK Scroll: Lesser | 8 | 3 Black Crystal | 20,000 |
Each recipe also needs 1 Processed Parchment and 10 Fragment of Magic; Arcforge is taught by Chrishrama in Sleepywood. Arcforge 8 needs character level 40, which one community source reports as the launch ceiling for crafting. They're the only main-stat Lesser recipes inside that reported cap. Crit. Damage and Evasion have no recipe. More in the crafting guide.
What to put on an earring
Main stat for damage, Evasion if you're dodging. Quest Intermediates are the best value per slot, and crafted Lessers fill whatever's left. The tier math is in which scrolls are worth it.
