Best Ways To Farm Upgrade Materials in Like A Dragon: Infinite Wealth

The easiest way to ensure that you’ve always got plenty of items on hand is by exploring the variety of Dungeons that are available to you within the world. Each map in the game has a dungeon, allowing you to spelunk and get your hands on not only a large number of weapon upgrade materials but also levels for your party and healing/buff items that you can use in combat.

On each floor of the dungeon, you’ll encounter sparkling objects left on the ground. This is normally paired with a character informing you that they’ve spotted treasure, so make sure that you’re always searching high and low while you’re exploring. If you’re a high enough level to breeze through these dungeons, getting plenty of weapon upgrade materials is an easy task, so you’ll always have the most powerful gear available to you at that given time in the game.

There is a chance that these Glittering Objects could also be Research Points, which can also be exchanged for different upgrade materials of your choosing. Since every weapon has unique attributes that are required to craft them and upgrade them to become stronger than ever, you’ll need to ensure that you’re always searching for different items. Once you have the base weapon required and all of the upgrade materials needed, head to Julie’s Gearworks and get ready to start getting creative.

Search The World Outside Of Dungeons, As Well

As you make your way around the world of Infinite Wealth, there is a good chance that you’ll encounter plenty of shining objects on the ground, alongside briefcases and even garbage bins that are glowing a unique shade of yellow. Approach them and press the corresponding button on the screen to search them to see what is waiting inside.

There’s a chance that it could be something like a Healing Item, or maybe even a fortune that you could exchange for something else, but you may be lucky enough to find some weapon upgrade materials. If nothing else, you can only hope that you find some cash lying around that you can use to pay for these upgrades since they can be a little pricy.
