*Update on 1 Aug 2020:
I have actually stopped playing FFBE: WOTV a while back, before the Global version was released. I do not intend to edit the guide for the Global version nor update it to include newer things, but I think I’ll at least get the images up fully within the next few weeks.
This post is a quick reference mostly for myself because I struggle to remember where to get the different types of materials.
Names of the materials are kinda directly translated, I don’t know what their actual English names are or what other guides/wikis are using.
If you’re looking for an English guide, there’s this one:
FFBE WOTV Beginner Guide
*deep breath* Alright, here goes.
Updates
Added update section. Slightly cleaned up some formatting.
Text version up first, needs a lot of images. Corresponding Japanese names and images to be added within a week or so.

Each Material Type and where to find them
I’ll put down the general places to obtain/farm, rather than exact stage and stuff. If you want that info, tap on the item itself to show which quest it can be obtained from. I’m also leaving out the Record Missions (aka Achievements) because those are one time rewards.
The shop that refreshes around every 6 hours also sells random materials, will just be referred to as Shop.
