Can you farm crafting materials in Final Fantasy 16?
Click to enlargeYou can farm some crafting materials in Final Fantasy 16, but unfortunately, most of them are only able to be picked up once. This is due to the source of most being from Hunts or bosses, which you're only able to take down once in the game.
So, you'd better think twice before you expend that precious crafting material, as this might be your last chance to use it. Thankfully, most of the items that you can only claim once are only used for one craft so you don't have to worry about wasting them on something inferior, but you will want to avoid selling any crafting materials just in case.
The best crafting materials to farm are things like Meteorite, Bloody Hide, Wyrrite, and Sharp Fang, as you can get them from loads of different sources - including standard enemies that respawn.
So, that wraps up everything you need to know about crafting materials in Final Fantasy 16, and whether you can farm them or not too.
