Serious Seeds

[Touchstone]

So, from what I've found the current seed farming is sharp spike the tournament. Currently doing that I'm getting around 26k seeds per minute to get into the ranges I'm shooting for that'll take like 4+ days of strait farming. I'm using the Revolutionary witch maxed with other +seeds amount. Anything I'm missing to help maximize this more?

Having all the Astral World / Akashic Seed upgrades helps a lot of course. I'm not sure about the amount per minute, I gain, but per fight it should be somewhere around 12-15k.

My personal setup:
Hero/Sharp Spike, Robbery Condor, Smash Dragon, Sacred Bird Chick, Greedy Beast, Revolutionary Witch, Overdose Lizard, Mud Wolf, Wyvern, Fairy Dragon.

From previous discussions, assuming unlocked Dragon Village:

- Level 100+ seed routine in envy with charisma strategy.
- Maxing out monster seed drop bonus (check your summons for this). Jerry's setup is for maximal seeds, some of the lowest seed drop bonus summons can be dropped for other passives (mainly if farming bosses). Corrupted Great Bird gets you some research drop chance and 7 levels of familiar; might be better than wyvern as far as seeds go.
- Buying all seed drops from Astral world and Akashic records.
- Familiar on dryads (and nothing else) + overdose lizard & revolutionary witch (fully seeded, start there if it isn't yet).
- Raising the greed Seed drop amount+.
- Equipment - relic heavy armor and bamboo chariot with at least 30 bonus levels.
- Fast enough autoseeding to keep up.

Farm bosses or tournaments - with all seed drops from Astral world and Akashic records, the seed drop difference isn't that big and bosses have other drops on top of seeds. Both are viable.
If you can oneshot fire drake with sharp spike, it drops more seeds than Fenia. Corrupted Great Bird is the same as Fenia.

Whatever you do, seeding everything will take days so some preparation doesn't hurt.

I'm missing Sacred Bird Chick, and I've never seen the fairy dragon yet, but most of my setup is the same, still leveling smash and Greedy. Looks like I have some setup to do to get to bigger numbers.

In that case, ignore the tournament. Get all seed drops from Akashic Records, enough Envy level to hit level 100+ seed drop routine and start a long run. Astral world seed drops can be bought during the run if not already bought. You want to get the Fairy Dragon - besides giving 200% to 400% seed drop amount and 327K to 79.9M to all seed caps, it also takes as many seeds as the Fire Drake and Greedy Beast. Sacred Bird Chick is +250% (fully seeded) seed drop amount.
If you lack the equipments and/or their bonus levels, get them during the long run.

Seed drop amount+ greed can offset the loss from lower boss seed drops (oneshotting Fire drake probably won't happen before everything is fully seeded).

Are there any quest lines with significant seed amount boosts? Like in the wind village there was a bunch of research drop boosts with the Griffon quest line.

There are no seed boosts from quests, unless there's something hidden in the orphanage with Fenia (I only went the ED5 guide route).
