How to farm materials in Monster Hunter Wilds

The Material Retrieval mechanic in Monster Hunter Wilds becomes available after reaching High Rank and completing the main storyline. Players can unlock it by completing specific sidequests, with the first two being "Beware the Gypceros" and "Aida's Apprehensions." Villagers in the Forbidden Lands assist players by gathering essential items. Resting in a tent refreshes the items collected by villagers, and setting them to gather 'Any' provides a variety of items. The Gathering Boost mechanic is activated by helping a settlement in distress, allowing item gatherers to collect resources at an accelerated rate and enhancing item trading limits in the region.

How to get Novacrystal in Monster Hunter Wilds

Novacrystal is a crucial material in Monster Hunter Wilds for enhancing weaponry, particularly for the final weapon of the Ore tree and the second Rey Dau weapon. It is accessible only upon reaching High Rank. Players can obtain Novacrystal through two main methods: 1. Harvesting mining outcrops in the Ruins of Wyveria during High Rank, with notable locations near the entrance to Sild, area 5, and area 8. 2. Breaking the head of a Gypceros during High Rank hunts, which has a 30% chance of yielding a Novacrystal, while destroying its wounds has a 12% chance. Novacrystal is a rare drop, and players may need to wait for mining nodes to reset or rest at their tent for 300 Guild Points to refresh them. Engaging with the Gypceros also unlocks villager Material Gathering in the region.
