Liquid Mercury is a rarer drop, but less is needed to make the Eternal Lockpick, so this balances the collection times. The best method to farm Liquid Mercury is to go into Mementos during bad weather. Head to the upper levels of the Path of Akzeriyyuth (level 10 or 11 is a safe bet) and fight Anubis enemies.

Persona 5 Royalhas made many changes, and players of this edition will have to head to the Path of Sheriruth and fight Ganesha and Garuda enemies to quickly farm Liquid Mercury, as Anubis does not drop it in this edition .Using stamps and searching in bad weather will greatly increase chances of a drop.
