Collecting materials inInfinity Nikkiis crucial if players wish to craft some items from the sketches they have obtained. Stylists can make a clothing piece, perfume, or evenMomo’s Cloak through the Sketchespage in their menu, increasing the amount of available customizations in the game.
Most materials inInfinity Nikkiare easy to find and can be obtained simply by walking around Miraland. However, some items are exclusively found in only one spot, making it difficult to discover. For that, this article will list thehardest and rarest materials to get inInfinity Nikki.
10Scarfmoth & Scarf Worm
Scarfmoth andScarf Worm are both available around Stoneville and Abandoned District. While they’re not the rarest material inInfinity Nikki, they can be tricky to catch.
Scarf Worm hides underground, so players must spot some dug holes to know where they are. After locating the holes, wait for a few seconds until the Worms pop out. Be quick and catch them with the Bug-Catching Outfit before the Scarf Worm hides in their holes again. Not only for its constant hiding, Scarf Worm’s home often comes with many holes in one area, requiring players to keep an eye on all of them at once. Not to mention that the holes aren’t the easiest to spot, especially if the game’s graphics are set on low.
Meanwhile, Scarfmoth is a beautiful purple moth that’s always flying on high ground, whether it’s up the stone cliffs or on a house’s roof. They’re solitary and hard to spot during the day, so it’s highly recommended topass to nighttime inInfinity Nikkibefore hunting the purple bugs.
9Socko
Socko is a purple-rarity material inInfinity Nikki. They’re easily spooked, which means players must sneak from quite a distance before they can catch these sock bugs. Not only are they hard to catch, but there are only seven Sockos around Florawish and the Breezy Meadows, meaning it’s not easy to stock them in high numbers.
Thankfully, each Socko grants five Bug-Catching Insights, making the hunt worth the time spent.
8Stern Belt
Esselings drops may look like a breeze to collect, that is until players get something called Stern Belt. Stylists can easily check their inventory and find many of the other Esselings' drops, but the quantity of Stern Belt will be the lowest among them, if there’s any at all.
Stern Belt is obtainable from the Harsh Sssack, a snake-like Esseling that looks darker compared to the normal Sssack counterpart, which drops Tangled Ribbon. There are only a few spots in the Wishing Woodswhere players can find this Esseling, so it’s highly recommended to visit the locations daily to ensure there won’t be a lack of this material in the future.
7Ribbon Eel
Ribbon Eel is not a purple-rarity material like the Socko, but it’s harder to get than the bug. In the game, there are only two guaranteed spots for this fish, but players can find one or two extra throughout the Breezy Meadows fishing spots.
Thetwo common spots for Ribbon Eel inInfinity Nikkiare by the little bridge northeast of The Leisureely Anglers Florawish Branch Warp Spire; and far west of the river of Abandoned Fanatic Wisher Camp, before the lake.
6Lamp Fish
Similar to Ribbon Eel, Lamp Fish are also rare, although it’s only marked as a blue-rarity. According to its description, it’s only found in caves, which makes it difficult to hunt, since there aren’t many fishing spots inside caves. The two guaranteed places to get Lamp Fish are in the cave southwest of theWell of Fortune waypoint(southeast of the Secret Base Warp Spire); and north of the Wish Pass Office Warp Spire. Players can also try their luck in other cave-like spots like the ripple right by the Well of Fortune waypoint.
Like other materials,Lamp Fish fishing spots respawn after 24 hours, which means players can use their Fishing Ability Outfit to collect this item daily.
5Night Velvet, Rose Velvet, And Bibcoon Furball
Night and Rose Velvet inInfinity Nikkiare similar in rarity to the Bibcoon Furball. All three items are unique fromonly one animal, where Night and Rose Velvets are obtainable from the swans in Swan Gazebo, whereas only one Bibcoon is hanging outside the Bibcoon’s Chuckle Club in Florawish town.
Although they’re fairly easy to collect, given they don’t get spooked and can be approached easily, the fact that Stylists can only get one material per day means it’s necessary to grind every 24 hours to stock up on their drops.
4Bullquet Felt & Bustlefly
Bullquet Felt and Bustlefly both exist in the Bullquet Habitat inInfinity Nikki. Before players can groom the Bullquet, they must first collect the Bustlefly flying around its head to calm it down. Next, simply switch to the Animal-Grooming Outfit to be rewarded with its Bullquet Felt.
The Deep Into the Forest quest is related to the Bullquet; it can be started by going to the blue exclamation mark west of the Lakeside Hill Lane Warp Spire (northeast of Abandoned Fanatic Wisher Camp Outpost).
Afterward, if it’s currently daytime, players can switch to nighttime to spawn more Bustlefly. Unlike the ones bothering the Bullquet, these bugs will fly peacefully around the habitat and the side of the road leading to the Bullquet.
3Astral Feather
Astral Feather is another purple-rarity material obtainable from the legendary creature called Astral Swan. This animal resides in the Stellar Fishing Ground of the Abandoned District.
There’s a quest related to the Astral Swan calledSoaring Above The Starry Sky quest inInfinity Nikki.
Unlike the Bullquet and Dawn Fox, Astral Swan doesn’t need any special requirements before players can groom it. It’s also not easily spooked, so approach freely and brush the animal to obtain its Astral Feather.
2Dawn Fluff
To get theDawn Fluff inInfinity Nikki, players must find the Dawn Fox in one special place in the Wishing Woods. This majestic creature is easily spooked and will go into hiding if players approach it rashly, even if they sneak slowly while using the Animal-Grooming outfit.
Players can play with the Dawn Fox after brushing it, which plays an adorable little cutscene.
Instead, use the Shrinking Outfit and hold onto Momo while approaching the Dawn Fox before quickly switching to the Animal-Grooming outfit to brush it. If the Dawn Fox gets scared and hides in its little den, simply shrink once more and wait for a minute or two until it comes out of its den.
1Tulletail
Like other legendary creatures in this list, theTulletail is also only available in one spot, which is the heart of the Stellar Fishing Ground. Head to the bridge and find the ripple under the bridge where players must look north, and cast the fishing line. Exhaust all the fishes in this spot to ensure it’ll respawn after 24 hours, allowing repeated collection of the Tulletail.
Naturally, as a purple-rarity material, Tulletail is harder to catch than most other fishes. Players who have learned about its existence can also head to the cliff north (west of the Stellar Fishing Ground Peak Warp Spire) and findProfessor Aventura for one of his many Observation quests inInfinity Nikki.
