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 through ruins. This section consistently spawns multiple stacked machines.
Two small clearings near ruined structures are ideal farming spots. All machines in these areas are the stacked variety. Warped Wire has a reasonable drop rate; expect one or two per clearing. Equipping a Drop Rate Up plug-in chip significantly accelerates the process.
Respawning Enemies for Faster Farming:
To quickly replenish enemies:
- Fast travel to another location and then return to Desert Camp. This is the most efficient method.
- Alternatively, travel a significant distance away and return. However, this is considerably slower than fast traveling.
Chip Recommendations:
Investing in drop rate increase chips is highly recommended, as numerous upgrade materials are machine drops. This farming strategy is frequently applicable for various weapon upgrades. Movement Speed increase chips further optimize travel time between access points, beneficial for both farming and completing race side quests.
