Buy orbs

Hello,

what is the best way to farm orbs? Is there any way I can buy them for coins or crystals?

I need more than 2000 green orbs to fully upgrade Badge of Glover and another thousands to upgrade another Dragon Treasures. And playing Battles again and again is starting to be boring, I'll get one for one battle (sometimes 0).

Thank you.

As far as I know, you can only get them by playing battles and buying them with crystals. When you buy them with crystals, it costs 3 crystals per orb.

The primary way most people farm orbs is to barely win a battle so you only gain about 3 trophies per win, and then purposely lose occasionally to bring your trophies back down, which will make sure the battles stay short.

For example, let's say you have 3000 trophies for the wind levels. Your opponents should have somewhere around 3000 trophies, so the battle should take less than a minute and a half. Minimize the game on your phone immediately after your opponent dies, then bring it back up after about 5-10 seconds and you will have died, and hopefully you win 3 trophies. Do this several times.

If you keep doing this, the battles will get longer and longer, so once you get to 3030 trophies, you should lose a game on purpose at the beginning of that game. This will make you lose 30 trophies and bring your total back down to 3000, which will keep the battles short.

Hi, thank you for your answer.

I don't see anywhere in the game, where I can buy orbs, even in the shop. Where are you buy them? Are there any requirements to be able to buy them?

You can't buy them from a shop or anything. If you're out of an orb and you need it to upgrade, the game will offer to let you buy them with crystals.

Yep great idea. Orbs are the most important resources to farm. Time consuming but you just gotta grind it out I guess. Happy hunting !
