How do you farm soul shards efficiently?

Hello... I'd like to know how to farm the soul weapon shards quickly. So far I've only been able to get 3 shards for Ani, and it's been over a week.

Thanks

Making use of a higher drop rate is the main thing that will help you. You only need like 4x drop to make shards drop 100% of the time.

I heard magnificent souls are tradable but even if they arent, as long as it's not
an SW weapons, the plan should still be applicable~

If you win everyday starting today
for the whole event which is roughly 25 days
you will be able to buy all the murgoth soul's
not including if you get it from the end stage.
Though if you want to be efficient, go on multiple
characters since what you ultimately want is
a magnificent soul. It is also classified as one
of the highest leveled souls giving the best passive
bonus like magnus and cygnus

[quote=0Kirito0]It depends on the soul you're trying to get. Farm the boss whose soul you want to get to acquire its soul. Like if you want Epinae then go kill epinae like a million times and pick up the shards when they drop. If you want the soul of something much more difficult boss (e.g. Cygnus) then your best bet is to do the Murgoth Dungeon 6 times a day (3 solo & 3 party) and hope you get the soul shards for the boss you want. All of this is assuming you can't kill the boss whose soul you wish to acquire. You can also do Murgoth's dungeon, then acquire points, then use those points to buy Murgoth's soul shards. Once you buy ten of them you can get his soul gem and there you go. Murgoth's soul gives the same stats as cygnus (except magnificent, I have no idea what his magnificent soul gives)[/quote]

Well here are the list of bosses im currently doing
murgoth dungeon
hilla- 2 a day sometimes hard but hard can fail solo
ani- do VL pre quests and u can fight him indefinitely easy~
ephenia- do her prequests and she is also indefinitely
Spirit of rock- can be farmed indefinitely als
VL- do quests and usually drops 1~3 shards
Ark-do pre quests and usually drop 1~3 shards
PB- pre quests and also 1~3 shards
Magnus- I only do easy since I havent finished the main quest
Cygnus- you can only do twice a week and drops 1~3 but almost
always 3. Cygnus is annoying to get because unless you can solo
or are going with people who don't need it, then it becomes a loot fest

Easiests can be defined 2 ways.
Easiest without any daily limits
1-ani(no cd so pretty much spammable)
2-ephenia(there is like a 5~10 sec cd per entrence)
3-Spirit of rock(traveling adds way to much time with low drop rate)

with daily limits
1-ark(only once a day but usually 2~3)
2-VL(you have to hunt a bit)
3-hilla(her drop rate for normal is really low)

There are others but they are mostly low level or pq bosses
which are doable with people I guess..

Text wall~

Yes, you're in my alliance.

Also, I could get Ephenia's soul shards too. I think it's easy to get and it would stack with my HB (and increasing my damage because of that skill that depends on your max hp or something)
