Standing in the forge, you feel the weight of your decisions. You’ve mined countless resources, yet the shimmering Azure Soul Ore eludes you, a ghost in the shadows of the Warring States. As you perfect your build, you can’t shake the thought: unlocking your gear’s true potential is just within reach.
Much like its predecessors, Nioh 3 thrives on the intricate dance of combat and customization, where thousands of items await discovery. But with your favored gear in hand, you may yearn to elevate it or even craft an entirely new build. Among the many upgrades available, Soul Matching stands out, allowing you to use Azure Soul Ores to enhance your equipment, yielding powerful boosts.
Every item tells a story: Where to find Azure Soul Ores in Nioh 3
Azure Soul Ores can only be procured through Soul Extraction at the Blacksmith, specifically from items boasting existing +value upgrades. You’ll need weapons or armor rated +1, +2, or higher to extract these coveted resources, much like mining for gold in a treacherous mountain.
Finding these items is no easy task; I managed to secure just six in over 30 hours. Most surfaced in the Warring States map, appearing as quest rewards or rare drops from formidable foes.
How can I maximize my chances of obtaining Azure Soul Ores?
Take on every challenge the game presents. Boss fights are prime opportunities for Azure Soul Ores, as they elevate your chances of receiving +value weapons. Engaging in Crucibles on the map will pit you against waves of formidable opponents, thereby increasing your odds of securing these elusive rewards.
Are you ready to risk it all for the chance to enhance your gear? Or will you let the soul of adventure slip through your fingers?
