WHERE & HOW TO FARM
Where to farm
A biome containing an eligible enemy whose blueprint is still locked; Hunter’s Grenade can be obtained from Specialist’s Showroom after unlocking it.
Hunter’s Grenade converts an eligible enemy into an Elite and enables the Blueprint Extractor process. The extraction only works when that enemy has an uncollected blueprint available. Weaken the Elite below the displayed threshold, then perform the prompted extraction action. This is a targeted method, not a way to obtain every blueprint from any enemy.
Identify an eligible enemy with a blueprint you have not collected.
Keep the target alive long enough to weaken and extract from it.
Before entering the biome, choose a target based on the missing blueprint you want.
If available, use the Hunter’s Mirror to check whether that enemy type is associated with an uncollected blueprint.
Use Hunter’s Grenade on the eligible target to make it Elite.
Fight carefully and reduce its health without killing it.
Watch for the Blueprint Extractor prompt once the enemy is below 40% health.
Perform the prompted extraction action and let it finish; avoid interrupting it or taking a lethal hit.
After extraction, continue to the Collector and pay the blueprint’s cell cost to unlock the item.
Farming tips
Do not spend the grenade on a target with no uncollected blueprint; extraction can fail in that case.
Use controlled attacks near the threshold so the Elite survives long enough for the extraction.
Repeat, collect and use
Repeatable for eligible targets with blueprints still missing. Each specific blueprint is collected once; the grenade does not create additional drops for an already-completed target.
Common mistakes
Killing the Elite before the extraction prompt; reduce damage and stop attacking once it is near the threshold.
Assuming every enemy has an available blueprint; verify the target’s unlock status first.
Forgetting the Collector payment; extraction secures the blueprint, while cells are still needed to unlock its gear.
When to stop or switch
Stop after extracting the target blueprint and turn it in at the Collector; switch to another enemy only if its blueprint is still missing.
