How to Get Machalite Ore in Monster Hunter Rise

Monster Hunter Rise is the latest entry in Capcom’s popular action game series, and it’s a pretty great fit for the Switch, especially when you just want to go on expeditions to mine for resources and minerals to craft new items. Speaking of minerals. here’s how to get Machalite Ore in Monster Hunter Rise and what it’s used for.

Machalite Ore is kind of a staple resource in the Monster Hunter series at this point, and it’s back in Monster Hunter Rise as well. You’ll be able to get it fairly early on in the game, once you unlock the Sandy Plains map.

Getting Machalite Ore in Monster Hunter Rise

You can unlock that map quickly by rushing through the first tier of Hub quests, which are a little tougher than the story-related Village quests. Once you beat all the 1-star Hub quests and complete the required urgent quest, the Sandy Plains will become available to you.

Once there, you can start mining white and blue mining outcrops for a chance to get Machalite Ore. Resource points will respawn over time as well, so make sure to double back to farm more after some time has passed.

Aside from the Sandy Plains, later biomes such as the Flooded Forest and Lava Caverns also have mining outcrops that can produce Machalite Ore, so just keep playing and you’ll get them eventually.
