The wiki only tells me that “high level” destroyers have a chance of dropping them.
What is considered “high level?” I farmed the ones around the Mega Destroyer’s area for a while (Level 66-67) and didn’t get any.

Tips, tricks?

If you have some spare gold, i would suggest putting in buy orders for heavy miners bags. If you sell everything they drop 1c under lowest seller and keep the Lodestones and cores (promote in mf), you should break even or make a little profit, depending on the market.

The fact I don’t have gold to just buy things outright is kind of why I’m asking to begin with.
I’m broke.

Unfortunately we cannot really go out and actually get things we want directly in this game. I know…..right…..So you will need to amass gold instead…..it’s rather sad imo.

What I did. Needed 100 for my legendary, so I got cores and promoted them. cores are so much cheaper, though it costs a fraction of a skill point per.

Yeah and those people who sell them on the TP magically found them in their bag everyday they log in.

To the OP, Champ bags have a small chance of dropping Lodestones too. Of course, farming the Champ train to get Destroyer Lodestones would be a very slow, unreliable way of acquiring them. If you’re the kind of player who prefers to “earn” the mats by yourself (as I kind of am), I suggest farming the Destroyers as you suggested yourself, then supplementing it by buying extras from the TP.

Wanze also makes a good suggestion by buying Heavy Miner’s Bags and opening those (selling items you don’t want back to recoup costs). It’s a slower method than just buying Destroyer Lodestones outright, but more cost effective.

Those will drops shards and cores.
The other option are dredges in frostgorge. The ones outside the tunnel where the event with dredge mortar shooting at the kodan bridge takes place. But only the lv76 dredges will get you get right bag.

There is a difference between randomly and directly. The likelyhood of directly farming a lodestone is such that it is not advisable. That said one can get cores from SE, but again we’d still need gold to promote and the rate of which they are acquired leaves much to be desired. So again gathering gold is still the best option.

So to direct this to your post…most of those on the TP were randomly found not directly farmed.

Farm the dredge fractal for miners bags?

I’ve gotten tons from just that alone. But i realize that doesn’t sound fun.

I get a fair amount of the destroyer cores each day from fractals. Mostly from the chests at the end of each.Maybe that would be an option, as you could make a bit of money while being in there as well

You’re playing the game wrong. For practically every item, farming is a bad idea because drop rates are abysmal. You’re supposed to farm gold instead and use the gold to buy what you want on the TP. In other words, get a “job” such as “Frostgorge champ farmer.”
