NieR: Automata Resource Management: Farming Dented Plates
While some resources in NieR: Automata are plentiful, the demand for upgrades, especially across multiple weapons, is substantial. Dented Plates, a frequently required material, are no exception. While seemingly common, efficient farming methods are crucial for accumulating the necessary quantities.
Optimal Farming Locations for Dented Plates
Dented Plates are commonly dropped by:
- Small Biped (all variants)
- Small Flyer (all variants)
- Small Sphere (all variants)
These basic enemies are ubiquitous throughout the game. However, relying solely on respawning enemies via fast travel is inefficient. The most effective location is the arena where you first encounter Adam in the main storyline.
-
Adam's Arena (Desert: Housing Complex): Fast travel to this point, descend into the pit. Machines, primarily Small Bipeds, continuously respawn, providing a consistent supply of Dented Plates. While enemy levels may vary depending on your game progress, the drop rate remains favorable. This location is also beneficial for farming Titanium Alloy.
-
Forest Kingdom: This area features numerous groups of spear-wielding Bipeds. These groups usually drop at least one Dented Plate. Exploring the Forest Kingdom also offers opportunities to gather Beast Hide. Note that higher-level Bipeds yield a higher Dented Plate drop rate, making story progression advantageous.
Improving Drop Rates
Equipping drop-rate boosting plug-in chips significantly enhances your Dented Plate yield. However, remember that death results in permanent chip loss.
By utilizing these strategies, you can efficiently amass the Dented Plates needed to fully upgrade your arsenal in NieR: Automata.
