NieR: Automata - Discover the Secrets of Warped Wire

NieR: Automata features a wide array of enemy types, each potentially dropping various materials crucial for pod and weapon upgrades. While many materials are acquired naturally during gameplay, some, like Warped Wire, require targeted farming. This guide pinpoints an efficient location to farm Warped Wire.

Farming Warped Wire in NieR: Automata

Warped Wire is a possible drop from stacked bipedal machines. These enemies, while not formidable, have limited spawn locations. The most reliable area is accessible via the Desert Camp fast travel point. Head towards the main desert, but before reaching the open expanse, you'll encounter a section with mountains, pipes, and ruins. This area consistently spawns multiple stacked machines.

Focus on two small clearings near ruined buildings; these contain the highest concentration of stacked bipedal machines. Warped Wire has a reasonable drop rate, typically yielding one or two per clearing. Equipping a Drop Rate Up plug-in chip significantly accelerates the process.

To expedite farming, utilize these respawn methods:

• Fast Travel: Quickly travel away from the area and then return to Desert Camp to trigger enemy respawns. This is far more efficient than the alternative.
• Manual Respawn: Running a significant distance from the area and returning will also cause enemies to respawn, but it's considerably slower.

Increasing your drop rate is a worthwhile investment, as many upgrade materials are machine drops. This farming strategy is frequently applicable for other upgrade materials. Similarly, movement speed upgrades, while offering only marginal time savings here, prove beneficial for completing timed quests.
