Crafting in Xenoblade Chronicles 3 is considerably robust, and players will need to collect many miscellaneous items for various recipes on their journey.
One such miscellaneous item is the Withered Kapiba Branch, which can be used in varied gem recipes to enhance a player's characters.

Once players have reached the second chapter of the story, they should be able to encounter a creature called Kapiba and farm it for its branches quite easily.
Once Xenoblade Chronicles 3 players have unlocked the Fornis Region in Chapter Two, finding Kapibas should be a fairly simple task. These rodent-like creatures should be comfortably beatable if players' characters are at level 20 or so.
In the southwest region of Fornis, players will find the Igno Viaduct area. This area is a prime location to spot Kapiba in the wild.
This method is effective for collecting standard Withered Kapiba Branches, but getting the legendary version of the item will be more challenging in this early area. If players are searching for this rare variant, it's best to progress further into the story and take on Kapiba in later chapters and regions.
Players should keep in mind that this farming method can work for many natural creatures in Xenoblade Chronicles 3.
