Obtaining the Materials
With Crafting and Researching Wukong there will be a lot of resources needed, listed here are the ways to obtain specific resources like Nitain Extract and some tips on how to obtain the bulk of the materials.
Don’t worry if you get too many resources since there will always be a place for your extra resources.
Keep in mind that the extra resources you get will help fill the gap of other clan members that are unable to contribute to the research and would rather use their resources to craft Wukong himself.
How To Get Nitain Extract
One of the rarest materials in-game is Nitain Extract this item can be farmed from a couple of missions like the Reactor Sabotage or from a Ghoul Purge, but due to its extremely low chance of dropping as an end of mission reward, it can be somewhat frustrating.
Although there is another way of obtaining them effortlessly and it is by going through the Night Wave missions and gaining Night Wave Credits then exchanging them for the Nitain Extract which is currently the easiest way to get them.
Wukong Farm – Best Places to Farm
There will be a lot of farming with crafting Wukong making this a great task for any squad so being with the right team will make farming the necessary materials fairly easy.
A must-have for the squad when farming the materials would be Nekros and using his Desecrate ability will potentially double the yield of the resource drops from fallen enemies.
This is further amplified by purchasing a resource booster from the in-game market or from Baroo Ki’teer if he has them available.
