NieR: Automata features numerous enemy types, each potentially dropping various materials crucial for pod and weapon upgrades. While many materials are acquired naturally during gameplay, some, like Warped Wire, require targeted farming. This guide pinpoints an efficient Warped Wire farming location.
Warped Wire Farming Location in NieR: Automata
Warped Wire is a drop from stacked bipedal machines. These enemies, while not formidable, have infrequent spawns, except in one specific area. The most reliable location is accessible via the Desert Camp fast travel point.
Head towards the main desert, but before reaching the open expanse, you'll traverse mountainous terrain following a pipe through some ruins. This section contains multiple stacked machines, making it ideal for farming.
Focus on two small clearings near ruined structures. The stacked bipedal machines clustered around these buildings provide the highest Warped Wire yield. The drop rate is reasonably good; expect one or two Warped Wires per clear. Consider using a Drop Rate Up plug-in chip to expedite the process.
Respawning Enemies for Faster Farming:
To efficiently farm, utilize these enemy respawning techniques:
- Fast Travel: Fast travel to a different location, then return to Desert Camp; this method is significantly faster than the alternative.
- Run Away and Return: Moving a considerable distance and returning will also respawn enemies, but this is less efficient due to the travel time involved.
Chip Recommendations:
Investing in Drop Rate Up chips is highly beneficial, as numerous upgrade materials are machine drops. This farming strategy is frequently replicated for various weapon upgrades. Movement Speed Up chips also improve travel times between access points, offering a small but cumulative time saving, potentially aiding completion of race side quests.
