Namekian Dragon Balls are freely obtainable in Dragon Ball Sparking Zero, but getting them at a consistent level can be slightly difficult.
Dragon Balls, much like the original lore, are required to make summons (slightly different from what we were used to seeing in the anime and reading in the manga). Thankfully, there are no microtransactions and stuff, which means that the only way to get these magical items is by playing the game. Unfortunately, you can end up spending a huge number of hours if you don’t know what you’re doing in the first place while trying to find Namekian Dragon Balls.
How to farm Namekian Dragon Balls in Dragon Ball Sparking Zero?
The Namekian Dragon Balls are used to summon Porunga, and like other types, you can keep a maximum of seven in your inventory. But first, you’ll have to earn them, and to do so, you’ll have to defeat the AI in solo battle. I have absolutely no idea why it only works against the AI in offline battles, but that’s the case.
Now, the simple but inefficient way to complete the process is by playing against the AI. But there’s no fixed number when it comes to completing fights, and it’s best to avoid this process. Instead, you can use the World Tournament to set up your fights and make the process faster. But before that, here’s the simple process (but it will take longer).
- Select your strongest fighter.
- Select someone who is extremely weak as your opponent, and make the difficulty low.
- Finish the fight as quickly as possible, and then restart.
By all means, farming in the World Tournament is a lot better, and for multiple reasons.
- Select Offline Battle, and choose World Tournament.
- Turn on the Out-of-Bounds ruleset.
- Select a fighter with an excellent Ki Blast (Gogeta is a good example) or who has a Ki Blast requirement of two bars.
- Equip the Rising Fighting Spirit Battle Ability item to your character.
- As the match begins, press the R2+Square button and then skip the dialog.
- This will immediately hit your opponent with the blast and send him out of bounds.
Once the process is complete, repeat it till you have the Namekian Dragon Balls in your inventory. Do note that the drop rate of Namekian Dragon Balls is less than that of Shenron Dragon Balls. But if done correctly, these steps will take less than a minute to complete. It’s a way more efficient process than just randomly battling the AI in the hope of finding Dragon Balls in Dragon Ball Sparking Zero.
From what I found on the internet, the AI difficulty doesn’t matter in terms of the drop rate of these precious items. However, I am yet to ascertain that in my play sessions, so it’s something you should keep in mind if your luck isn’t exactly rewarding.
