Kiego's Giude to Farming Dragon balls
Got a little bored waiting for the alpha so i decided to share some tips i used while hunting dragon balls. I didnt know where to put this thread so i just thought general discussion was the best place, sorry mods.
[Tiers]
First things first, there are 3 types of dragon balls you can collect in this game. Read Up.
TIER1
These are the dragon balls you collect when leveling up in your native zone when you first start. You should Collect them! You get a good package to help you level through Korin untill you become an adult. I would strongly reccomend it becuase it gives you a Dragon Radar Chip you can use to hunt T2 Dragon balls. Especially if you are new.
TIER2
These dragon balls are the main one's people talk about and collect. They are a little brighter compared to the T1 dragon balls, so you can easily tell the diffrence
TIER3
These are the balls that seperate the men from the boys. Alot of the best gear is from wishing with these balls. You can wish for all types of gear. I remember seeing old pro kr players with
Goku's original power pole
Roshi's turtle cane
Kami's cane
The Z sword
The Original Bansho Fan
I don't know what else you can grab becuase i never made a wish with these. I'm a noob lol. You get them from doing the PVP Dragon ball Hunt: Scramble. Its usually its own channel and you can turn it on. Its pretty much PK time when you see a star flashing below other players, but of course like many other games the safe zones are towns. I think you have to be at least level 45? Or something around those lines. Anywhere in the world is a war zone. Pretty much, the T3 dragon balls are all over the world in stone. Players kill each other over the balls untill one person has all 7 and makes a wish. I forget if you had to wait untill the end of scramble before you could make the wish...but its an all out brawl.
[Hunting]
When the dragon ball 1 star icon (green kinda teal star) appears on your icon shortcuts, its time to start hunting! I dont know what DBOG's times will be so i cant tell you what the times are. Look on your mini map and if you have your dragon radar chip in your scouter you will sometimes see a mob icon replaced with a dragon ball icon. If you kill that mob it will possibly drop a T2 Dragon ball...if i had to give it a percent, i would say 5% drop rate with normal mobs. I farmed for 3 hours 1 weekend and got 1, next week like 13, next week like 4. Its random and the drop rate is wierd.
[Dropping]
There are many things to consider when trying to drop dragon balls.
- When you drop a dragon ball, as soon as the mob died you will hear a unique sound letting you know you just dropped one! It sounds like...the best way i can describe it is......"A Light Orb Emmiting a soft glow". thats the best i got in here...work with me >_>
- When you drop a dragon ball it will show up as clear orb, becuase it doesnt know which ball you need yet. If you have dragon balls already, it will become 1 of the 7 you need to finish your collection. If you already have all 7, it will become a useless blank ball you cant do anything with, it used to be for a recipe in the crafting business but crafting was reworked and you can't use the blank dragon balls for anything. Maybe the Dev team can change that later, when we come up with a better idea for blank balls.
- You can drop a dragon ball even without a radar, you can blindly kill mobs and a dragon ball will drop for you even at level 1.
- You can only drop a dragon with a mob 5 levels in your range above and below. So for example if im going to hunt for dragon balls and im level 25. I would kill mobs 20-30 in level. But its better to kill mobs around your level for the best chance or so ive herd.
- When dropping a ball and another player see's you and trys to steal it, no worries. Its yours for at least 60 seconds and nobody can pick it up...but after that time limit runs out its free game for anyone.
- When you and someone else fight over a mob, the ball dropped become the player or group who did the most damage in percentage.
- When you are in a party and you and your members arent in the 10 level cap, the dragon ball wont drop at all.
- When you drop a dragon ball in a party it will go to the first person why tries to pick it up. If you have item sharing on, it will give it to whoever is next in line for a drop.
- You can wish for gloves,sub weapons,acc, perm dragon buffs,race transformation, money(not alot),HTB skill.
[Tips]
Probbably the most important thing about dropping dragon balls is that the chance is high the more powerful the mob is. Just like dropping gear.
There diffrent types of mobs and by types i mean rank.
- Normal
- Super
- Ultra
- Boss
- Hero
A trick i like to use is fly around the world around an area my level and hunt for Urns,Pots or Boxes and breaking them untill they spawn as a dragon ball icon and farming them that way.
Thanks for taking the time to read my bad grammer giude to getting you to drop your dragon balls! Hope it helps and good luck to you all. Also a huge shoutout to the development team for making all this possible.
