WHERE & HOW TO FARM

Where to farm

The Twilight Mission list on the world map; use the Blacksmith after claiming the reward.

Twilight Missions appear in a rotating list on the world map after early progression. Choose an available stage you can clear, check its rewards, and use earned Umbracite at the Blacksmith to temper an equipment effect. The available mission changes, and reward eligibility can depend on first-clear status and difficulty, so verify the reward panel before investing in a run.

GET STARTED

How to farm

Before you go

  • Progress far enough for Twilight Missions to unlock.
  • Have access to the Blacksmith and tempering.
  • Select an available mission whose level and reward suit your current build.
  1. Open the world map and view the currently available Twilight Missions.
  2. Inspect the reward information and confirm Umbracite is listed for your mission and difficulty.
  3. Choose a stage you can complete reliably with your current equipment.
  4. Prepare healing and a weapon setup suited to the stage's enemies.
  5. Complete the mission and claim its results.
  6. Return to the Starting Point and open the Blacksmith's tempering service.
  7. Spend Umbracite to roll an available equipment effect that supports your build, then evaluate the result.

Farming tips

  • Twilight stages rotate, so check the map when you are ready to farm rather than planning around one fixed stage.
  • Use tempering on gear you expect to keep; avoid spending scarce material on equipment you will replace immediately.

Repeat, collect and use

Limited by the available Twilight rotation and first-clear reward eligibility. Umbracite rewards are not an unlimited repeat per mission; check the in-game reward panel.

Common mistakes

  • Assuming any repeat clear pays the same Umbracite: check whether the reward is first-clear or otherwise eligible.
  • Choosing a stage that is beyond your current build: use one you can finish consistently.
  • Tempering before deciding which effect matters: identify the gear goal first.

When to stop or switch

Stop when you have the Umbracite needed for your tempering goal or the current eligible Twilight reward has been claimed; check again when the rotation changes.
