Monster Hunter Wilds Lightcrystal Farming Locations

To get your hands on Lightcrystals, you'll need to visit the Mining Outcrops scattered throughout *Monster Hunter Wilds*. Keep in mind that obtaining these crystals is somewhat of a luck-based endeavor, so patience is key. Here are the prime locations where you can find Mining Outcrops:
