Easiest way to get golden balls?

[wisdommaster1]

So I'm nearing 100% and the one achievement that is the further is getting golden balls. I only have 30 and thats through almost 100% playthrough so getting another 20 sounds like it could be a while...

Is there an easiest/best way to get these from Lofty? maybe I should make battles take longer and just wait it out?

Stop chasing grindy achievements and concentrate on actual various content completition. The product is supposed to be a game, not a job with dumb repetitive process.

Did you get the one for 150+ sidequests done? If yes, time for another game. Show your middlefinger to grinding and achievements related to that cancer of gaming.

If you are unable to refuse being a slave to grinding, you can repeat the final boss battle and during it force yellowball by holding E till the circle fills near Lofty.

Or he may just enjoy gathering achievements you know. Like some people gather stickers or whatnot.

I tried to do it regular way, by starting a fight and waiting for lofty to spawn a ball. It is not efficient at all, he spawned it once every 5-8 fights and I waited for 2-3 minutes in each fight. So boss battle is probably faster and more fun.

I will do 100% archivments, even the hiden ones...this game deservs. And btw i love grind, right now im tryng to put levels on heros, and as any one is sayng, some elite lv 67 dragons are pretty hard to beat.

I mean yes I did do everything.

And for the record I did move on without that achievement but all the rest of them. I only asked because I had everything else so I mostly curious to see if I was missing something about how golden balls could be generated

You can farm the last boss for "awakings", but you need one gold ball for the achievement to pop Hope this helps!

But how to do this?
I can have a long fight with tough mobs and get no golden balls. And I can have a very short fight with lvl 3 rats and still get one.

I heard if you are blocking it helps the drop rate, as I did that in the Old Well againest the skeletons and got one right away, plus researching all of stuff from the Cathedral helps too, I got my last one from fighting the last set of tainted monsters

Lv 62 Sporespew tainted monster is not bad for waiting balls. I gave up after fighting it 20 minutes. Sporespew was still full HP =.=.
Another information, Lofty can throw more than 2 golden balls in a battle.

Killed one tainted in a long time fight - too much damage in too fast shots, so only dodges and higgles as main damage dealers.
No golden balls at all.

I got 3 golden balls when I fought Sporespew before I escaped.
There are 2 researches which can increase the rate of Lofty's help.

There is a buidling you get in your kingdom that will give research options that will increase the drop rate a little, though it will take until around the start of chapter 9 to have all the citizens that are needed unlock them all plus you need the building upgraded to the its max
