Eagle's Eggs in NieR Replicant Remake (PS4). This is a guide on how to efficiently farm Eagle's Eggs, when to get them, their uses, required amount, and drop rates.
How to Efficiently Farm Eagle's Eggs
How to Farm in Part One
| Step | What to do |
|---|---|
| 1 | Go below the Chieftain's house in The Aerie |
| 2 | Gather from the glowing spot |
| 3 | If it's not an Eagle's Egg, go near the ladder. |
| 4 | Jump off the cliff to reduce your HP to 0. |
| 5 | Continue, and you will respawn on the upper level |
| 6 | Repeat steps 2-5 until you have enough Eagle's Eggs. |
With the method above, you can farm Eagle's Eggs without changing areas. After Emil joins your party in Part Two, he will use healing magic when your HP gets low, so it's best to farm them during Part One.
Gathering Point Spawns are Random
Whether a gathering point appears below the Chieftain's house is random. Sometimes, the gathering point won't appear even after continuing. Be patient and keep trying until it spawns.
How to Farm in Part Two
| Step | What to do |
|---|---|
| 1 | Save at the entrance to The Aerie. |
| 2 | Go to the plaza on the bridge in front of the save point. |
| 3 | Look below the Chieftain's house  |
| 4 | Do the following depending on whether there is a gathering point: - If there is a gathering point, collect it and then save. - If not, load the save data from step 1. |
| 5 | Repeat steps 1-4 until you have enough Eagle's Eggs. |
Takes Longer to Travel, but is More Efficient
In Part Two, Emil will heal you, making the continue-farming method from Part One less efficient. Therefore, although it takes longer to travel, it's more efficient to reliably spawn the gathering point by saving and loading.
How to Get a Large Amount of Eagle's Eggs
This may significantly disrupt the game balance, so please use at your own risk.
| Step | What to do |
|---|---|
| 1 | Obtain one Eagle's Egg. |
| 2 | With an Eagle's Egg in your inventory, accept the Part One quest "The New-and-Improved Remedy". |
| 3 | Complete the quest by giving the Eagle's Egg without going to The Aerie. |
| 4 | After that, go below the Chieftain's house. |
| 5 | Gather from the glowing spot (guaranteed to be an Eagle's Egg). |
| 6 | Jump off the cliff to reduce your HP to 0. |
| 7 | Continue, and you will respawn on the upper level. |
| 8 | Repeat steps 5-7 until you have enough Eagle's Eggs. |
Following the steps above, you can obtain an infinite number of Eagle's Eggs. The downside is that you will only be able to get Eagle's Eggs from the item spot below the Chieftain's house, meaning you can no longer obtain items like Meteorite or Broken Pottery there. (You can still get them from other locations).

Available Below the Chieftain's House
Eagle's Eggs can be obtained at a low rate from a glowing spot on the level two floors below the Chieftain's house in The Aerie. Since respawning the item by changing areas is time-consuming, it is recommended to farm using the methods below.
Becomes Unobtainable After The Aerie is Destroyed in Part Two
After the battle with Wendy in Part Two, The Aerie will be destroyed and become inaccessible. This makes it impossible to obtain Eagle's Eggs during the main story, so if you want to upgrade your weapons, make sure to collect at least 4 before proceeding with the story.
Available in 15 Nightmares
Eagle's Eggs can also drop in the stages of the '15 Nightmares' additional content, accessible from the protagonist's house. If you need to farm them after The Aerie is destroyed, you should run through 15 Nightmares.
