Ferrium Ore is a critical yet seemingly scarce material for upgrading your character\u2019s gear and evolving your AIC base in Arknights: Endfield<\/em>.<\/a> By the time you need it, you might be unsure where to find it, so here\u2019s everything you need to know to secure this resource for your Factory.<\/p>

How to get Ferrium Ore in Arknights: Endfield<\/h2>

Ferrium Ore is not as plentiful or accessible as the easily obtained Originium Ore, found in almost every region in Arknights: Endfield. That’s because Ferrium is a high-tier resource, required for you to produce Blue Rarity gear<\/strong> and many other important crafts, and their importance isn’t that aren’t apparent until later. <\/p><\/iframe>

As mentioned, you’ll probably need Ferrium Ore long before you actually run across it, which is certainly a problem. Fortunately, the solution to this is to follow the Main Story<\/strong> until you unlock the Originium Science Park<\/strong> region. This is where you will find your first Ferrium Ore nodes which you can harvest like any other ore.<\/p>

However, if you plan to collect Ferrium Ore in large amounts, simply hitting the nodes won’t cut it. You’ll need to place an Electric Mining Drill<\/strong> Rig Mk II<\/strong> on a Ferrium Mining location.<\/strong> You read that correctly: a normal Electric Mining Drill will not work for Ferrium Ore.<\/p>

Additionally, you’re going to need to have an active Power Grid<\/strong> in the Originium Science Park<\/strong> region to power the drill, which means you’ll need a sub-AIC base set up. How do you set up a sub-AIC base in the region? The answer, once again, is to follow the Main Story<\/strong>. You’ll eventually be prompted, toward the end of the Originium Science Park region’s story, to set up an outpost base, and thus, a useable Power Grid.<\/p>

How to get an Electric Mining Drill Rig MK II in Arknights: Endfield<\/h2>

Electric Mining Drill Rig MK IIs are craftable at any AIC Unit (Main or Sub). In order to gain access to the schematic, you must first research and unlock Mining III <\/strong>in the Basic AIC Plan<\/strong> menu. Once you do, the schematic will appear in the Construction<\/strong> option at any AIC Unit.<\/p>
