Best Way To Farm Money

Farm Tremortusk Tusks At the Raintrance Hunting Grounds

Area Map Zoomed Map

The Raintrance Hunting Ground offers challenges against Tremortusks allowing you to easily farm them for components. Tremortusk Tusks are worth 89 Metal Shards each and they can drop multiple at a time. Don't worry about failing the trial either, as you will get the drops either way.

Clear Hunting Grounds Challenges

Getting the best rank on Hunting Grounds challenges gives a high amount of Metal Shards and other useful resources which you can choose to sell or trade with merchants.

The larger rewards for Hunting Grounds challenges can only be obtained once, but you can still farm loot and Metal Shards from enemies by retrying these challenges. Not only that, if you know which enemies appear in the trial, you can farm for specific enemy components, making the Hunting Grounds one of the best spots to farm.

Sell Items From Relic Ruins

Legendary Resource items like Ancient Sculpture or Gold Ingot can be found in the Relic Ruins and these legendary items sell for 65 Metal Shards each. This might not seem like much compared to Tremortusk Tusks at 89 Metal Shards each, but keep in mind that these items are only used to sell, whereas Tremortusk Tusks can be used for trading or upgrading.
