Monster Hunter Wilds: How To Get Antimite

What is an Antimite in Monster Hunter Wilds, and how can you obtain one for your personal use in the new MH game?

Antimite is a Rare 4 item in Monster Hunter Wilds. This means that this material is not easily obtainable. The game classified it as a Special Item, meaning that players who stumble upon Antimite in MHW will not really know what to do with it. Because a Special Item is a category used to sort out “Others” in your inventory.

So far, we have learned that players can get some value out of this mineral if they trade it off for something else. Unfortunately, the Mineral can’t be used in any crafting or upgrading recipes at the time of writing.

Where To Find Antimite in Monster Hunter Wilds

To find this Mineral, all Hunters must visit the Oilwell Basin. This Special Item is not dropped by any monster, so you can relax because there will be no major fighting to gather it. However, don’t go looking for Antimite either, because that’s not how you find it. Instead, look around for Hopper Crystal Ore. There will be several harvesting points in the basin for this ore.

Look for small rock structures that are dark and have a solidified crystal texture. Luckily, you don’t need to be a professional miner to get this Mineral. Just walk up to the ore deposit, press/hold the prompted button, and you can then collect your Antimite. Note that you will only get one Antimite per Hopper Crystal Ore harvesting point.

There are many Hopper Crystal Ore deposits across the Oilwell Basin. Since each deposit will take around 15-17 minutes to reform and replenish, you can cycle between them to ensure your mineral farming goes according to plan.

Certain gear pieces allow you to farm items efficiently. For example, if you craft a Geologist Charm when gathering items on a map, it will help you in the long run. There are 3 levels to this charm. Geologist Charm level 2 grants you the ability to add one extra item when gathering Special Items. While it may not do much when you gather one or two Antimite, but in the bigger picture, it will make a good difference.
