Hey fellow Tenno! I’m trying to unlock some more amp parts from the Quills because I’ve been having a blast in Void Cascade, but I really can’t stand Eidolon farming. The entire process feels off to me, whether it’s the pacing, the setup, or just the mechanics in general. I’m looking for ways to make the farming for Eidolon shards a bit easier or more enjoyable. Any tips to speed it up or at least make it less of a chore? I’m not looking to become a pro at it, just need enough shards to get some decent amp options. Thanks in advance for any help!

If you’re into it, try using the Buzzlock! It can kind of auto-hit the weak points of the Eidolons. I don’t know if it’s powerful enough for the later ones, but it can usually solo the first with just a little help from the Bombalysts.
You really only need a few specific shards to rank up, which you can get way easier through Narmer Bounties. Trust me, it’s less painful compared to grinding the same Eidolon hunts repeatedly.
One tip I’ve found helpful is to join the public Eidolon bounties. Just focus on getting and charging the lures. There’s usually someone experienced around who can handle the entire Eidolon solo. You can just pitch in and look useful while thanking them for the carry afterwards!
You could always ask a clan member or use the recruiting chat for a carry. A lot of people aren’t fans of grinding Eidolon hunts either, so you might find others willing to help out. It feels a bit unfair that players have to struggle through this content with such a small, elitist community from DE’s side, really.
Yeah, definitely consider doing the amp farming from Fortuna instead! While it might take a bit of time, you can gather the 3 prisms for mastery rank fodder and amp arcanes quite easily. Plus, the store there is way better than the Cetus one. Just keep in mind that the faction leveling can be a bit RNG dependent, but you’ll get the hang of speedrunning Profit-Taker or Exploiter Orb soon enough!
Right? I built a 777 amp from Fortuna and it’s been a game-changer for me!
Agreed! Just take your time with the Eidolons and you’ll end up with some great rewards without the burnout.
Just go for the Arquebex (Voidrig 4) for weak points. It’s super easy to solo if you pair it with a Trinity for Blessing to keep the drones alive. Pick your fav amp with Madurai, and you’ll be golden!
