One of the most used crafting items used throughout Monster Hunter Rise is the Fucium Ore, and knowing how to easily get more of the material will allow players to craft many weapons and armor. In fact, Fucium Ore is used in more than a couple of dozen weapon upgrades throughout Monster Hunter Rise, making it an extremely desirable resource for the best High-Rank gear. Knowing where to find Fucium Ore can save players plenty of time as they craft a variety of weapons in Monster Hutner Rise to find what best suits their playstyle.
Fucium Ore is a material that is only found in Monster Hutner Rise once players reach High Rank, but luckily, it isn't needed to craft any of the Low-Rank weapons or armor. Additionally, Fucium Ore can be used to craft a handful of Buddy armor pieces, though the options aren't nearly as vast. Once players progress far enough in Monster Hunter Rise to reach High Rank, they can begin gathering Fucium Ore immediately in a few locations.
Fucium Ore is found in three locations across Monster Hunter Rise: the Flooded Forest, the Sandy Plains, and the Lava Caverns. Hunters will need to find blue Mining Outcrop in Flooded Forest to potentially mine the Fucium Ore, and both white and blue Mining Outcrops in the Sandy Plains and Lava Caverns can yield the rare metal as well. Additionally, High-Rank Meowcenaries can also find Fucium Ore in the Flooded Forest and Sandy Plains.
Monster Hunter Rise: Everything Fucium Ore Is Used For
Like most of the metals or crafting materials in Monster Hunter Rise, more than one Fucium Ore will be used in every crafting recipe and upgrade. Luckily, players can go on an expedition to the Flooded Forest, Sandy Plains, or Lava Caverns areas in Monster Hunter Rise to mine Fucium Ore. Characters are able to hold 99 Fucium Ores in a single inventory slot. Completing High-Rank quests in Monster Hunter Rise in the three locations will also give players a chance to find Fucium Ore, though these quests do have set time limits.
Whenever players visit the Smithy to craft or upgrade new weapons in Monster Hunter Rise, the items that need Fucium Ore will have the material and required quantity listed under the gear's required materials. Fucium Ore can also be used to craft a Physique Jewel 2. This jewel grants players the Constitution perk in Monster Hunter Rise, reducing their stamina depletion during all actions.
Monster Hunter Rise is available on Nintendo Switch and PC.
