Get Warped Wire in NieR: Automata

Efficiently Farming Warped Wire in NieR: Automata

NieR: Automata boasts a wide array of enemy types, each potentially dropping unique 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 the optimal location for efficiently gathering Warped Wire.

Locating Warped Wire

Warped Wire is a rare drop from stacked bipedal machines. These enemies are uncommon, but a specific area offers a high concentration. Utilize the Desert Camp fast travel point. Proceed along the path towards the main desert. Before reaching the open desert, you'll traverse mountainous terrain following a pipe, passing through some ruins. This section consistently spawns multiple stacked bipedal machines.

Two small clearings near destroyed buildings are ideal farming spots. All machines near these structures are the stacked variety. Warped Wire has a reasonable drop rate; clearing these areas usually yields one or two. Consider equipping a Drop Rate Up plug-in chip to expedite the process.

Respawning Enemies

To optimize farming, employ these enemy respawning techniques:

• Fast Travel: Fast travel to any other location and then return to Desert Camp. This instantly respawns all enemies.
• Manual Respawn: Moving a significant distance away and returning will also respawn enemies; however, fast travel is considerably faster.

Maximizing Efficiency

Investing in drop rate increase chips is highly beneficial, not just for Warped Wire, but for numerous other upgrade materials dropped by machines. Similarly, movement speed increase chips, while offering minor time savings here, prove invaluable for completing time-sensitive side quests.
