Where to farm
Guiding Lands; use Hunter’s Notes to confirm an eligible tempered threat-level-3 monster. Level 7 regions can produce Tempered Elder Dragons.
Great Spiritvein Gems are a named Iceborne Guiding Lands material used in high-end augmentation and armor upgrades. The Guiding Lands reward tables place them in the tempered threat-level-3 reward group; examples include Tempered Elder Dragons and other eligible top-threat monsters. Before the hunt, check the Smithy’s augment recipe and Hunter’s Notes → Guiding Lands to verify the current monster and reward tier. For an Elder Dragon route, raise the relevant region to level 7 so its tempered form can appear, then lure or wait for a qualifying Tempered Elder Dragon. During the fight, collect dropped shinies and finish the hunt; check both field pickups and mission rewards because the material can come through the Guiding Lands reward flow. Repeat only while the upgrade recipe is short. This route stays inside Iceborne’s postgame system and replaces the base-game Streamstone topic with the actual rare gem used by the expansion’s endgame.
