Lightcrystal Farming Locations
Lightcrystals are acquired by mining designated Outcrops within Monster Hunter Wilds. The acquisition rate is variable, so persistent mining is key.
High-Yield Mining Outcrop Locations:
- Windward Plains: Areas 1, 2, 3, 7, 9, 10, 17
- Oilwell Basin: Areas 4, 6, 7
- Iceshard Cliffs: Areas 8, 16
- Ruins of Wyveria: Area 5
After mining, Outcrops require approximately 15-20 minutes to regenerate. Utilize this downtime by farming other resources in different areas before returning.

Once you've amassed sufficient Lightcrystals, return to Gemma at Base Camp to forge or upgrade weapons. Lightcrystals are a component in the creation of the following equipment:
