NieR: Automata's vast enemy roster drops a variety of materials crucial for pod and weapon upgrades. While many materials are acquired naturally, 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 rare drop from stacked bipedal machines. These enemies are sparsely distributed, except for one key area. Fast travel to the Desert Camp access point. Proceed along the path towards the main desert. Before reaching the open desert, you'll traverse mountainous terrain following a pipe, passing through ruins. This section consistently spawns multiple stacked machines.
Two small clearings near ruined buildings are ideal farming spots. All machines near these structures are the stacked variant. Warped Wire has a reasonable drop rate; expect one or two per clearing. Equip a Drop Rate Up plug-in chip to accelerate the process.
Respawning Enemies for Efficient Farming:
To expedite farming, employ these enemy respawning techniques:
- Fast Travel: Fast travel to a different location and then return to Desert Camp. This resets all enemies.
- Manual Respawn: Running a significant distance away and returning will also respawn enemies, but fast traveling is far more efficient.
Chip Recommendations:
Investing in drop rate increase chips is highly recommended, given the frequency of material farming required for weapon upgrades. Movement Speed increase chips also enhance efficiency by reducing travel time between access points, proving beneficial for both material farming and completing time-sensitive side quests.
