You can easily amass a lot of Armor Spheres just by completing the Optional Subquests. They're quite convenient too since you can complete them alongside your main quests.
Side Quests Guide | Optional Subquests
Armor Spheres can also be obtained as a reward for clearing quests. However, the probability of it appearing as a reward is not high, so it's not recommended to go looking for it through this method.
| Endemic Life (Crafty Creatures) | ||
|---|---|---|
 Boulder Lizard |
 Rock Lizard |
 Scale Lizard |
Armor Spheres can also be obtained from the Crafty Creatures type of Endemic Life. However, these Lizards' locations are pretty obscure and random, so you might want to refrain from looking for them to farm Armor Spheres.

Armor Spheres are used to increase an armor's defense value, but each Armor Sphere's value increases depending on what armor sphere it is. The more basic Armor Spheres give lesser value than the more advanced ones, so feel free to use the basic ones on low-rank gear.
