NieR: Automata features a wide array of 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 location to farm Warped Wire.
Warped Wire Farming Location in NieR: Automata
Warped Wire is a rare drop from stacked bipedal machines. These enemies are uncommon, except for one specific area. The best location is accessible via the Desert Camp fast travel point. Head towards the main desert, but before reaching the open expanse, you'll encounter a section with mountains, ruins, and pipes. This area consistently spawns multiple stacked machines.
Focus on two small clearings near the destroyed buildings. The machines here are predominantly the stacked variety, offering a decent Warped Wire drop rate (usually one or two per clearing). Using a Drop Rate Up plug-in chip significantly accelerates this process.
Respawning Enemies for Efficient Farming:
To maximize efficiency, utilize these enemy respawning methods:
- Fast Travel: Fast traveling away from and back to the Desert Camp instantly respawns all enemies.
- Manual Respawn: Running a significant distance and returning will also respawn them, but this is less efficient than fast traveling.
Chip Recommendations:
Investing in Drop Rate Up chips is highly recommended, not just for Warped Wire, but for many upgrade materials dropped by machines. Similarly, Movement Speed Up chips can slightly reduce travel time between access points, proving useful for both farming and completing race side quests.
