WHERE & HOW TO FARM

Where to farm

Previously visited chapters reached through Stargazer travel, including the Center of Venigni Works lower mine.

Story areas contain fixed Moonstone pickups that can be missed during the first pass. Stargazer travel lets you revisit accessible chapters and collect a missed item, including the lower mine materials in Center of Venigni Works. This is a cleanup route, not an unlimited resource loop: collected pickups stay collected, while some enemies such as Dimensional Butterflies can provide drops at their encounters.

GET STARTED

How to farm

Before you go

  • Unlock Stargazer fast travel to the chapter you want to revisit.
  • Know the landmark for the missing material.
  • Have the route open or be able to progress back to the pickup safely.
  1. Check your weapon inventory and enhancement menu to identify the missing material family and tier.
  2. Use Stargazer travel to return to the relevant chapter, such as Center of Venigni Works.
  3. For the mine pickup, descend the two ladders and check the barricade on the left wall; let the puppet break it to reveal the Covenant stone.
  4. Search opposite that point near the two pickaxe puppets for the separate Hidden Moonstone.
  5. Collect only the material you had previously missed, then return to Hotel Krat and verify it appears in your inventory.
  6. If the fixed pickup is gone, move on to another supported source such as available shop stock or a butterfly encounter.

Farming tips

  • Keep a short list of the exact item name you need; normal and special weapon stones are easy to mix up.
  • Chapter revisit is useful for missed exploration, while enemy respawns are for Ergo and do not restore collected pickups.

Repeat, collect and use

Each fixed pickup is available once per playthrough. Revisit only to claim a missed collectible; no reset loop reproduces it.

Common mistakes

  • Do not keep resting in an area expecting a fixed Moonstone to respawn.
  • Do not collect the nearby Hidden Moonstone and assume it is the Covenant stone.
  • Do not revisit a chapter without checking which material the weapon actually needs.

When to stop or switch

Stop when the missed item is collected or when the location is already cleared; switch to shop stock or eligible enemy drops for further materials.
