How to Get Lightcrystal in Monster Hunter Wilds

In *Monster Hunter Wilds*, mastering the art of material gathering is as crucial as slaying monsters. To craft and upgrade your arsenal, you'll need to farm Lightcrystals. Here's a comprehensive guide on how to efficiently farm these essential materials.

Monster Hunter Wilds Lightcrystal Farming Locations

Lightcrystals in *Monster Hunter Wilds* are primarily sourced from Mining Outcrops scattered across various regions. The process is somewhat random, so patience is key as you might need multiple attempts to gather enough.

Here are the detailed locations where you can find Mining Outcrops:

• Windward Plains: Areas 1, 2, 3, 7, 9, 10, 17
• Oilwell Basin: Areas 4, 6, 7
• Iceshard Cliffs: Areas 8, 16
• Ruins of Wyveria: Area 5

After mining, these outcrops will respawn in about 15 to 20 minutes. Use this time to explore other areas and gather different resources before returning to the same spot.

How to Use Lightcrystals

Once you've collected sufficient Lightcrystals, head back to Gemma at Base Camp. Here, you can use them to forge new weapons or enhance existing ones. Below is a list of equipment that you can craft or upgrade with Lightcrystals:

• Guild Knight Sabers I
• Dragon Perforator II
• Dual Hatchets II
• Triple Bayonet II
• Iron Assault II
• Iron Gale II
• Chain Blitz II
• Iron Accelerator II
• Hyperguard II
• Buster Sword II
• Iron Hammer II
• Metal Bagpipe II
• Chrome Drill II
• Iron Katana II
• Iron Beater II
• Ingot Vambraces
• Thunder Charm III

Keep in mind that most of these items, except for the Thunder Charm, might be surpassed by better gear relatively quickly. Therefore, don't become too attached to your early equipment; you'll likely find superior replacements soon.
