Hi guys!
So, i put it simple and short: there’s a way to get a lot of geodes without spending too much time?
I need a lot of them to buy recipes.

A lot of characters, doing a lot of personal story?

Geodes are the unfortunate product of grinding through Dry Top. You can get them from participating in events throughout the map (some dedicated instances have made their own farming paths, and they work well under good leadership). You can also do the LS quests in Dry Top; they give a decent amount with each completion, and you can get the rewards on different characters too.

Just remember that the prices drop as more events are completed. Don’t bother wasting any geodes unless the merchants are T4-5, when the prices are at their lowest.

Hope that helps

Pvp, Tpvp, 1 full track gives about 400-500 geodes, 10+ keys and 1 Fossil.

Sadly, there’s no fast way to do this without spending a fair about or time farming. You get these from drops. But, according to wiki, you can get around 40 if you get this:

You can also search on geodes on that site. Good luck.

I just finished my Ambrite Collection last night.

Here’s what I did.

1. I totally ignored Dry top for months, but farmed the Magumma Wastes PvP reward track when I did SPvp.

The track gives you more than enough geodes for a weapon, and gives you a fossil at the end. Plus, you get a ton of Zephirite lock picks, which become more geodes and fossils when you open them.

2. I jumped into Dry top at 35-38 minutes after the hour. If I did not land in a T4, I used lfg to get into a T4. After 35 minutes, Dry top is basically almost done.

3. I farmed Geodes in the sandstorm. There are two major sources of Geodes. First the events, and second the silky Sand, which gives you a Geode every hundred. As for the Silky Sand, put on some magic find food and sharpening stones. They help!

Doing the events nowadays, no Dry Top ever hits T5 or T6, so you will need to join a special guild or you will need 425 Geodes per weapon. However, the advantage of doing things nowadays is that players in dry top are more interested in loot than geodes, and it is easier to tag events.

4. Here is the route I used starting at 0:40. All events you tag and leave as soon as you see other players. Some of the events you tag are bosses where you don’t get the champ bag, because you are after Geodes, not champ bags.

Dust mites – Haze – Skritt Burglar (if he’s not nearby ignore) – Explosives (you are probably too late) – Skritt.

Devourer Queen — After Queen you can tag Notchli if people do that but usually tey don’t. After defeating the queen you have about a minute to look for chests. But you must be on top of the dust mites when they spawn. Be on time.

Dust mites — Twister — Haze — Explosives — Skritt — Chickenado. Usually there are 3 minutes left when you’ve done this so check if people are doing Eway or the Rat queen, or just look for more chests.

This Route’s usually good for 100 Geodes from events in a T4 sandstorm, Plus more Geodes if you are lucky with things like the Skritt burglar and are in a zone where players actually do the rat queen. Plus more Geodes from Zephrite keys and From Silky Sand.

#24 leaderboard rank North America.
