I am about 100 blade shards short of being able to craft the ascended spinal back piece. I know I can acquire them from aetherblades in Gendarran Fields, EotM, and the recipe. Unfortunately, I’m out of sprockets so I can’t use the recipe anymore.

I’m just wondering, where is the best place to farm them?

Do you have the sprocket node in your home instance? There’s a chance to get 1 blade shard every time you mine it. So max 3/day.

Or you can borrow someone else’s instance to mine. If you are eu you could use mine. Keep forgetting to do it, good reminder.

Take a lowbie, or otherwise non-used character.
Go to the aetherblade jump puzzle
Get to the end chest
Open it
hit f12 and go to character select
guest to another world
login to that character
open chest
hit f12 and go to character select
guest to another world
login to that character
open chest
rinse repeat (You can get around 8-10 opens per reset with guesting in my experience)

The chest isnt fantastic, but it can help. Ive gotten 15 blade shards out of it once. But ive also gotten 2 blade shards out of it 20 times in a row.
