Tough Guardian Bone Farming Route

Best Farmed in the Ruins of Wyveria

Ruins of Wyveria Bone Farming Route
Ruins of Wyveria Bone Farm
  1. Exit the Base Camp, collect the bones to the left, and drop down to Area 6.
  2. Gather from all the Bonepiles scattered across Area 6.
  3. Fast travel to the Entangled Canopy camp to reach the Area 11 Bonepile.
  4. Fast travel to the Gap in Rubble camp and collect the bones nearby.
  5. Fast Travel to the Hidden Cave Pop-Up Camp and get the bones in Area 12.

The Bonepiles in the Ruins of Wyveria are the only ones where you can gather Tough Guardian Bone. While some quests and monsters can reward you with this bone, it's best farmed through Bonepiles in the Ruins of Wyveria with the Geologist skill. You can farm Tough Guardian Bones in both Low Rank and High Rank.

Always keep on the lookout for Bonepile Upsurges in the Ruins of Wyveria for more Bonepile nodes and increased chances of rarer Bones!

Bypass Bonepile Cooldowns with Optional Quests

Tough Guardian Bones can only be obtained from regular Bonepiles found in Ruins of Wyveria. These Bonepiles have a 15 minute cooldown, but can be bypassed by starting an Optional Quest and then selecting "Return from Quest" in the menu.

List of Optional Quests

Wear Armor with Geologist Skill

Equip the Geologist Skill

If you happen to have armor pieces that have the Geologist Skill, equip at least one to have it at Level 1. This gives a guaranteed bonus of one extra item whenever collecting from Bonepiles, which happens to be the same place to look for Tough Guardian Bones.

Geologist Skill Effects

Spread Those Wings Optional Quest

Spread Those Wings is a low rank optional quest that will require you to slay 6 Guardian Seikret. The player has a 20% chance to receive a Tough Guardian Bone as a target reward of Guardian Seikret. The quest itself also has a chance to reward the player with a Tough Guardian Bone as part of its quest rewards. This quest is a great way to farm for Tough Guardian Bones if the player does not want to go through Bonepiles.
