If you want to stand a chance in Monster Hunter Wilds, you need strong weapons and armor. That means gathering plenty of ore. Whether it’s Iron Ore or something rarer like Novacrystals, mining is a big part of progression. The more ore you collect, the better gear you can craft.

Each biome has its own set of Mining Outcrops. Some ores are common, while others only appear in specific locations. A few are even tied to certain monsters, making them harder to farm. Knowing where to look will save you a lot of time.

Each area in Wilds has its own Mining Outcrops, and different biomes offer different types of ore. Some are easy to find, while others are much rarer. If you’re hunting for something specific, you may need to check multiple locations or even defeat certain monsters that drop rare ores.

Efficient Mining Tips

  • Always check your map for Mining Outcrops before heading into a new biome.
  • Mark Outcrops as waypoints to reach them faster with your Seikret.
  • Strike each Outcrop multiple times to maximize ore collection.
  • Some rare ores come from monsters, so pay attention to their drops.
  • Stockpile ore early to avoid scrambling for materials later.
