    If you guys are in the heart of the nora mission, when you first arrive on main embrace gate you'll encountered with a corruptor and slay it. Quick save at the nearest campfire, then reload. Search for the corruptor body and you'll see it always has loots every time after you reload and it contains 60-120 metal shards, 5-10 metalburn, and random modification components (from common to rare). Loot, quick save, reload, profit.

    Easier way is to do the first trial at the first hunting ground. Use harvest arrow with sharpshooter bow.
    There are total of 8 grazers with 4 blazes on each of them. Each harvest arrow nets you 6 blazes.
    4*6*8 = 192 blazes * 5 shards/blaze = 960 shards.
    If you sell you get the amount otherwise you got loads of blazes for blast wires!

    I literally have over 20k shards just from playing the game and beating the story. I did however farm the behemoths a bit by killing them saving and loading my save, then repeating that process. much faster way to farm shards if you use tripwire with 40%+ dmg mods. 8 wires kills a behemoth. 150+ shards per kill and 2-3 mods

    • @sunnyn9392
      @sunnyn9392 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

  • @camjo_io
    @camjo_io 4 ปีที่แล้ว +6

    An even better farm I found was the banuk hunting grounds in the dlc. iirc they just spawn dozens of easy kill machines and for some reason they seemed to have a high drop rate for machine hearts/eyes/cores. U can clear the challenge in a few mins, collect all the stuff, then run it again as many times as u want (because its a hunting ground).
    Also, if you frequently kill and loot machines you come across just traversing the map - you’ll easily end up rich. After three runs and 250hrs- I have a 100k shards lol.

    This just randomly popped up as a suggested video. This was actually the first game I saw during the start of the old Generation system life and I was so excited to play it...
    This game is at the top 5 of my list of best old Generation games. Which is truly saying something. Considering it was released as one of the first games released on the old consoles.
    This game is still very significant in my opinion and should be remembered as one of the best games developed in the past 5 years.

    Theres a way to farm very rare modifications, just watch a video on it and you can get like 6 and then travel a small distance, come back and the modifications are in the machines again. You can also get a pretty good amount selling extra modifications and other stuff. I got like 10,000 after like 10 minutes, although don’t quote me on those stats, I just know you get a pretty good amount of shards

    Find a thunder jaw spawn point near a campfire, set difficulty real low. Use the trip caster with bombs, insta kill thunder jaw. Save at campfire, restart from last savepoint. Rinse and repeat. I did this to grind levels and between the shard off looting and selling purple mods, I ended up at around 10k shards after an hour.

    I think Hunter's gathering? The one with the grazers? Correct me if I'm wrong but that's an amazing way to farm for shards. With the Shadow Sharpshot bow, that special arrowhead assures 24blaze per grazer with about 10 grazers available. And then when killed just start a challenge and abandon and voila! New grazers. You even have a merchant right next to you
    I had like 13000 shards at the time btw so I didn't check

    • @saundras.9427
      @saundras.9427 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      XDARKFUTUREX I can't remember if the prices are the same for every difficulty or not but according to my math that method isn't that good in ultra hard mode.
      A harvesting arrow costs 1 wire and 8 shards to craft. Each wire costs 15 shards from a merchant. So each harvesting arrow costs 23 shards. Blaze sells for 4 shards so each harvesting arrow gets you 24 shards worth of blaze. It's just 1 shard per arrow. Grazers do normally give 2 or 3 (if you're lucky) wire per kill and that helps offset the cost. To me it still isn't worth it especially since I'm usually short on wires.

    I found something that might be faster and each box has 42 shards for sure. What you need to do is go the the first hunting grounds and you do the first trial (nock off blaze from a machine). You need to take off 10 in less that 1:10 l (not that hard) go back and the guy and he will give you a blazing sun and a box. This box always contains shards and it's simple to do.

    • @carlosalonso3877

    Thanks. And luckily when I got the game I never patched it ever. I'm on version 1.0. And been playing it on this version for some time. I've been getting from 1 to 8 Processed Metal blocks dropped by the Scrappers. usually 6 or 8. I've gotten over 44 in total. Sometimes are better than most. This last farm didnt get me too many Shards....I got like 22 fast travel packs now lol...and like 800+ wood which I ended up dropping. Because wood isn't hard to find in the game. And usually when I get RAW wood from picking it up I get 7 or 8 every time because of my level I am.

      No point to crafting fast travel packs when you can buy the Golden Fast Travel Pack which allows for unlimited fast travel. All it requires is access to the western part of the world map. Once you can do that (which requires story progression to get past Daytower), go to the hunting grounds at Greatrun and speak to the merchant.
      The Gold Pack is located in the resources tab via said merchant and has a trade cost of 1 fox skin, 10 fatty meat and 50 metal shards. All of which are really easy materials to obtain early on.
      Once you do that, you'll get the Golden Fast Travel Pack which allows for unlimited fast travel for the rest of the game.

    Simply playing the game in the same time span, hunting and scavenging, will yield the same amount of shards. Plus, this game rewards nicely and I've never personally been hard up for shards and/or gear.

    Does the difficulty matter? Because I'm only finding 1 maybe 2 at a time...and I have the scavenger skill as well..
    Update:
    So it's confirmed that in the 1.10 update that they patched this as stated in the "Item Economy Adjustments" portion. However, you can delete the install (not the save game) and reinstall from version one. Just make sure to pause the update file so that it won't download the latest version. But you HAVE to have a save file from that patch version.

    Pick them all up sell half again and repeat the process.
    Today is February 16th 2023 and the method still works. You don't need to wait till you get to Meridian the either

The best tip i can give is to complete side missions, kill machines and loot as much as possible. Sell almost everything non required to the traders especially the ones easy to get by. I also recommend getting the extra resources pack and The loot skill so you can store more valuable items to sell later on.
