A Miner’s life inFantasy Life i: The Girl Who Steals Timeis full of cracking open rock-solid ores and gathering materials that are much-needed for crafting new items. Leveling up and finding new mining tools is one thing, but exploring the game’s world to find minable rocks is the bigger challenge.
Making progress in the story campaign will reveal the locations of some of the key minables inFantasy Life i, but there are still some rare rocks in the game that only spawn in select locations. Players who don’t explore the world thoroughly might never be able to find them. For those struggling, here’s a rundown onall ore locations inFantasy Life i.
Copper Deposit Spawn Locations
Copper is the most common rock in the game and can be found at all three timeframes within their entry-level areas.
Gold Deposit Spawn Locations
Great Gold Deposit Spawn Locations
Leveling up the areas in Ginormosia upgrades the level of the rocks spawning in the region. It also increases the rarity of the rocks spawning. Great and Superior rarities usually spawn after Area Level 2 and 3, respectively.
Players can earn Area Points in many ways, such as killing the monsters in the area, cutting down trees, mining ores, or completing limited-time Area Challenges. Finding Shrines as well as Leafes will also add to the Area Points.
Superior Gold Deposit Spawn Locations
Amazing Gold Deposit Spawn Locations
Amazing Gold Deposits also spawn in a few other locations, but they do so in very limited quantities. The best location to farm this rock type is The Depths B2.
Ancient Fossil Spawn Locations
Luminous Magic Ore Deposit Spawn Locations
This ore type only spawns inside the areas that are sealed by the purple magic. Players can only lift those seals after completing the main story, when Dark Fire becomes available as a magical item to pass through the seals. So, obtaining this ore before beating the story is impossible.
Fire Starcrystal Spawn Locations
Unlike all the other Starcrystal variants, Fire Starcrystal does not spawn in Ginormosia, and players will need to return to Banaan Cave to mine it every time.
Wind Starcrystal Spawn Locations
The Wingtip variant of this rock spawns at Level 90, but the overall drop pool for both instances includes Wind Shard, Faraway Iron, Aquamarine, Good Mysteria Masonry, and a random weapon.
Water Starcrystal Spawn Locations
Similar to the Wind variant, the Water variant also spawns at Level 90 in Ginormosia, and it comes with the possibility to drop Good Mysteria Masonry, Water Shard, Marine Ore, and a random weapon of the highest rarity, such as the Wolf’s Gang sword.
Earth Starcrystal Spawn Locations
The Ginormosia instance of this rock spawns at Level 60, with the drop pool including Good Mysteria Masonry, Quality Minty Ore, Emerald, Diamond, Earth Shard, and a random weapon.
Graphite Deposit Spawn Locations
The instance that spawns in The Depths B3 is a Level 58 rock. However, the one in the Drakesnout Range is Level 90. Mining this rock has the possibility to drop Ancient Orb, Dark Stone, Black Onyx, and a random mercenary item.
Dragon’s Claw Spawn Locations
Dragon’s Claw is a Level 58 rock, and its drop pool includes Ruby, Magma Ore, Flame Ruby, Ancient Emerald, and Magma Dragonstone.
Giant Ancient Fossil Spawn Locations
This rock spawns at Level 58 in The Depths B3, but the one that spawns in East Dryridge Desert will be Level 68. The possible drops from the rock include Fossil Shard, Minty Ore, Dragon Vertebrae, and a random weapon.
Golemstone Spawn Locations
Golemstone spawns on top of the lava mountain in Molatana Wastes, and it’s a Level 90 rock. The most valuable drop from Golemstone is Warrior’s Pickaxe, besides Quality Minty Ore, Golem Fragment, Ruby, Magma Ore, and Minty Ore.
Legendary Shiny Geode Location
This rock only spawns as a random event, and it’s quite difficult to mine. The rock will be Level 100 whenever it spawns. The drop pool includes Legendary Shiny Diamond, Warrior’s Pickaxe, and a blue chest.
These areall the rocks available inFantasy Life i: The Girl Who Steals Timeto mine. Mining some of these rocks is tied tothe Miner’s level-up, which makes them mandatory for players. The late-game areas, like The Depths B3, only offer special rocks. Since they are quite sturdy, it’s recommended that players take some miner buddies with them in order to have an easier time cracking open the rocks, especially when underleveled.
