Monster Hunter Wilds

Machalite Ore Mining Location and Uses

Add to Watchlist

Machalite Ore is an Equipment Material in Monster Hunter Wilds (MH Wilds). See how to get Machalite Ore, how to use it, and its effects.

Machalite Ore Farming Route

Best Farmed in Low Rank Windward Plains

Windward Plains Machalite Ore Farming Route

  1. Mine the surrounding outcrops near Lookout Hill, then mine the one at the end of the river.
  2. Fast travel to Mineral Cave, mine the nearby outcrops, then get to the cliff at Area 5. Jump down and glide with your Seikret. Then proceed to get the Area 6 and 2 outcrops.
  3. Mine the outcrops in the Underground Water Vein.
  4. Fast travel to the Bone desert and mine all the outcrops on Area 17.

Machalite Ores are mined from Mining Outcrops on all Low Rank locations. However, it's best to farm Machalite Ore in Low Rank Windward Plains due to how many mining nodes there are in the location. Machalite Ores can also be obtained in High Rank Windward Plains.

It's recommended to have three levels of Geologist equipped to maximize efficiency when farming.
