Farm randomized mineral rewards in Unholy Cathedral when its Ritual conditions suit your rarity target.

WHERE & HOW TO FARM
Where to farm
Unholy Cathedral, choosing an available Ritual at the mode entry.
Unholy Cathedral offers a resource run with mineral types that are randomized rather than fixed to a map pool. Ritual choice matters when pursuing higher-rarity tiers: Ritual of Hate or Heresy is listed as a gate for rare, epic, or legendary materials. This makes the Cathedral useful when you want a chance at varied materials or are pursuing those rarity conditions, but it is less predictable than a targeted Void Fields map. Choose a survivable Ritual, complete the run, check the materials received, and spend them on your Blacksmith plan.
Know the material type or rarity your recipe needs.
Use a build that can handle the selected Ritual and enemy waves.
Inspect the Blacksmith requirement and decide whether you need a particular mineral or higher rarity.
Open Unholy Cathedral and review the available Ritual choices.
If targeting higher rarity, select Ritual of Hate or Heresy when available and appropriate.
Choose a difficulty your build can complete rather than maximizing danger immediately.
Clear the encounter while collecting exposed materials and rewards.
Complete the run and check the material inventory for actual results.
Compare stock with the recipe and spend suitable materials at the Blacksmith.
For a remaining fixed mineral shortage, plan a Void Fields map instead.
Farming tips
Cathedral mineral types are randomized; use Void Fields when a specific map pool is essential.
Treat the Ritual as a condition to verify in game, especially if updates change available options or gates.
Repeat, collect and use
Repeat Cathedral runs while randomized rewards or the selected rarity gate advance your goal. The mineral set varies per run; spend qualifying material stock between attempts.
Common mistakes
Expecting a guaranteed mineral: inspect rewards after the run and use fixed-pool maps for specific shortages.
Selecting a Ritual without checking the rarity goal: confirm it matches the current requirement.
Overcommitting to difficulty: lower the setup if you cannot complete runs and collect useful rewards.
When to stop or switch
Stop when your goal’s material needs are met, or switch to a fixed-pool Void Fields route if a specific mineral remains missing.
