How to Get Lightcrystal in Monster Hunter Wilds

In *Monster Hunter Wilds*, slaying and capturing monsters is just part of the adventure. To craft and upgrade your armor and weapons, you'll need to gather materials like Lightcrystals. Here’s your comprehensive guide to farming Lightcrystals in *Monster Hunter Wilds*.

Monster Hunter Wilds Lightcrystal Farming Locations

To get your hands on Lightcrystals, you'll need to visit Mining Outcrops scattered throughout the game's world. Remember, finding Lightcrystals can be a bit of a gamble, so patience is key. Here are the prime locations for Lightcrystal farming:

After you've mined a spot, the Mining Outcrops will take about 15 to 20 minutes to respawn. Use this time wisely to explore other areas and gather other resources before returning to your Lightcrystal farming.
