WHERE & HOW TO FARM
Limit Break weapons with Core Orbs
Weapon upgrade interface at the Forge after Limit Break progression is available.
Before you go
- Complete the main story to access the relevant post-story progression.
- Obtain Core Orbs from successful Volatile hunts.
- Have a weapon eligible for a Limit Break.
Farming steps
- Open the Forge and select the weapon you want to improve.
- Open its Limit Break options and review the attribute change shown.
- Read the listed Core Orb type and quantity required.
- If short, choose a Volatile hunt in the matching region and complete it successfully.
- Collect the Core Orb reward and return to the Forge.
- Confirm the weapon and cost again, then apply the enhancement.
- Review the weapon’s updated attributes before continuing to spend materials.
- Compare weapons before committing scarce regional orbs; each weapon has its own costs and effects.
- Use the Forge requirement to plan hunts, rather than collecting a random mix of orb types.
Repeat, collect and use
Limit Break can be applied again when the weapon offers another enhancement and you have its listed materials; each spend is limited by the weapon’s available progression.
Common mistakes
- Assuming every weapon uses the same orb cost: inspect each weapon’s displayed requirements.
- Hunting in the wrong region: match the required Core Orb type to the hunt region.
- Spending on a weapon you will replace: decide your target build before committing orbs.
When to stop or switch
Stop when the chosen weapon reaches the desired enhancement or its available Limit Break options are exhausted.
