How to Get Lightcrystal
Low Rank Ruins of Wyveria
Lightcrystals can only be obtained in the Ruins of Wyveria and cannot be found in other maps in Low Rank.
Oilwell Basin High Rank
Lightcrystals can be mined from any Mining Outcrops in High Rank from Chapter 5 (HR 32) onward. Oilwell Basin during the Plenty is recommended, as there are several nodes you can mine using the route above.
Oilwell Basin MapAccept an Optional Quest
Once you have gathered a Mining Outcrop, it will take some time to respawn. If you accept an Optional Quest, the Mining Outcrop will be available immediately. Select any Optional Quest in Oilwell Basin, mine the nodes, then return and repeat the quest.
Activate Equipment and Food Skills
| Item | Effect |
|---|---|
| Equipment Skill | - Geologist Lv3 - Adds one extra item when gathering from mining outcrops. |
| Truffle Du Conga | - Gatherer Meals - Items gathered increases randomly |
Skills such as Geologist increase the number of ores obtained by 1 at level 3. On the other hand, the Gatherer Meal randomly increases items obtained by 1. As both skills stack, it is possible to mine multiple items at once. Notably, the Geologist skill can be activated with the Chainmail equipment set, which is available at the start of the game.
Gatherer Meal Skill isn't Required
Gatherer Meal does not always guarantee the number of items gained will increase. Additionally, Truffle Du Conga is a difficult ingredient to obtain, so it is not required to activate this skill.
