Finding Fucium Ore will likely be one of your first priorities upon reaching High Rank in Monster Hunter Wilds, especially if you’re looking to craft some of the newly unlocked weapons with Gemma the smithy. You might not recall coming across this material during Low Rank, and that’s because it’s exclusive to High Rank.
However, if you’re aiming to forge the fifth Hope weapon or the third weapon in the Ore tree, you’ll need to get your hands on it. Here’s where you can find Fucium Ore in Monster Hunter

How to Locate Fucium Ore
To find Fucium Ore, you’ll need to venture into the Ruins of Wyveria. Unlike some ores that can be mined across multiple regions, this resource is exclusive to Wyveria’s Mining Outcrops—you won’t find it anywhere else. So, if you’re searching in a different biome, you’re out of luck.
Mining Outcrops are scattered throughout the Ruins of Wyveria, but one of the best places to check is near the Wylk (or Wyvern Milk) eggs, where the Guardians appear. These locations often yield high-quality materials, including Fucium Ore, though it’s a chance drop, meaning not every Mining Outcrop will provide it.
If you’re feeling lucky, there’s another possible source—the Stockpile Ship. Occasionally, Fucium Ore appears in its inventory, but it’s not a guaranteed supply. If you spot it in stock, be sure to grab as much as possible to save yourself from extra grinding.
Best Ways to Farm Fucium Ore
The Ruins of Wyveria is the ideal location for farming Fucium Ore, with nine Mining Outcrop spots that can be covered in a single farming route.
To optimise your route, begin at the upper-level Mining Outcrop near the base camp on the lower right. From there, drop down one level to reach three additional Outcrops. Finally, make your way through the third and bottom-most levels to complete the loop.
Note: Outcrops reset every 15 minutes, so creating a loop through the region will allow you to gather resources consistently with minimal downtime.
