In Genshin Impact, players will obtain the various enhancement ore types through quests, chests, special events, and even through the battle pass. Unfortunately, unlike the other ores available in the game, enhancement ores are not farmed or mined in the traditional way.
In order to obtain enhancement ore, players must farm crystal chunks, which are rare minerals that can only be found in certain locations. With crystal chunks, players are then able to head to a forging station to turn 4 crystal chunks into 1 mystic enhancement ore. The forging process takes 3 minutes to complete for each mystic ore, and also costs players 50 mora per stack.
Players should also be aware that this forging method is not unlimited, and there is a cap of 30 Mystic Enhancement ores that can be crafted per day. There is, however, an unlimited forging method available to players. This method requires players to use magical crystal chunks and 10 original resin to craft 6 mystic enhancement ores. Because of how limited original resin is in Genshin Impact, this method is not recommended.
One of the optimal ways to earn enhancement ores is through the expedition dispatch system. In this system, players can send any Genshin Impact characters they have in their roster out on expeditions for a variety of materials.
There are three expeditions that players should be prioritizing for this method. This includes; Whispering Woods, Dadaupa Gorge, and Yaoguang Shoal. Players can set multiple expeditions at once, allowing them to claim the rewards from all three when the expedition timers have concluded.
Each of these expeditions rewards players with 3-4 white iron ore, and 7-8 crystal chunks. Because each expedition takes 15 hrs to complete, when all the expeditions have completed this method will net players between 9-12 white iron ore and 21-24 crystal chunks.
Completing these expeditions on a daily basis is extremely easy and takes almost no effort. Players will also unlock the daily challenge rewards for mining when they obtain the minerals when the expeditions are completed.
Genshin Impact is available for Mobile, PC, PS4, and PS5, with a Switch version in development.
